How to Create a New Project

The download AdvancedHMI software is a self-contained solution. If you have already created a project and now want to start a new project from scratch, you will want to create a new folder and extract the downloaded solution to that folder.

For example:

1) Open Windows Explorer
2) In the upper left right click "Documents" (may be My Documents if you use an older OS)
3) Select New->Folder
4) Give the folder a name such as "MyNewHMI"
5) Either browse to the AdvancedHMI zip file you previously downloaded go to the web site and download a new copy
6) Right click the downloaded zip file and select Extract All
7) Click the browse button and select the folder you created in step 4
8) Open Visual Studio
9) File->Open->Project/Solution
10) Browse to the folder you extracted the project to and select the solution file

You are now ready to work on your new project
