Manage Applications

Applications, layouts, and processes can be managed using the respective manager, which you can access in the "Applications," "Layouts," and "Processes" modules via the "File" main menu (e.g., "File / New Application").

Application Manager

When you navigate to the "Applications" module in Portal Manager, the Application Manager opens, where you can select a suitable template. You can also access the templates via the main menu "File / New Application" if you are already in the "Applications" module.

New applications are generally created based on templates.

You can also open existing, previously published applications using the Application Manager.

New Application

When you click "Application" in the left pane of the dialog, the "Empty Application" and "Base Application" templates appear on the right. These two templates are integrated into Intrexx and are also available offline. Clicking "Create" will create a new application based on the selected template. Clicking the "More Templates" link loads additional templates. This will take you to the same list of templates that you can access by clicking "Templates" in the left-hand pane.
