Manage applications
Applications, layouts and processes can be managed via the respective manager, which you can access in the "Applications", "Layouts" and "Processes" modules via the main "File" menu (e.g. "File / Application new").
Application Manager
If you switch to the "Applications" module in the 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 always created on the basis of templates.
Existing applications which were published earlier can be opened via the Application Manager.
New application
If you click on "Application" in the left-hand area of the dialog, the "Empty application" and "Basic application" templates are displayed on the right. These two templates are included in Intrexx and are also available offline. Click on "Create" to create a new application based on the selected template. Click on the "More templates" link to load additional templates. You will be taken to the same template list that you can also access by clicking on "Templates" in the left-hand area.
