From a blank project to a printed document, mostly in the app.
- Start. Choose New from the Main Menu, name the project and pick a
canvas size and background. You land in the Overlay Editor. The new
project already has a
process.jsthat adds a page and placesoverlay.canvas. - Build the form. In the Form Editor, add the fields someone will fill in.
- Design the layout. In the Overlay Editor, add blocks and connect them to fields: a text block
showing
{inputs.field_id}, a logo image, a box for a panel. A layout does nothing untilprocess.jsplaces it withoverlay("file.canvas"); new projects do this foroverlay.canvas. - Save. A new project only exists in a temporary working copy, so use Save in the main menu
and choose where to keep the
.yatatefile. - Fill it out and print. The app bar's Open Project button returns to the Input Form. Enter values, Submit, then Print or Save from the Output Preview.
