Creating & Navigating Projects

Video Transcript:

 Welcome! In this video, we’ll go over creating and navigating projects from within the Paragon Design App.

To search existing projects, create a new project, or open sample projects, from the header bar, click Choose/Create Project.

The Choose Project dialog displays a list of all projects within your organization. The Search bar allows you to quickly find a project by name, which is especially useful as your list of projects grows. To open a project, simply hover over the desired project and click to open the project.

Next, we’ll explore how to create a new project. Returning to the Choose/Create Project icon, select the Create Project tab. The Create Project dialog automatically populates the Project Name. Rename the project and set the other required fields; like Region and Design Code. Required fields, are marked with an asterisk and must be populated to create a new project.

There are several additional fields available, but since they aren’t required, we’ll leave them unchanged for this demonstration. For paid plans, you can review and modify this information via the Project Properties after project creation.

Now, click Create, and just like that, your new project is set up!

Next we’ll explore how to open a sample project and copy it to your organization. Returning to the Choose/Create Project icon, select the Open Sample tab. Your Paragon software comes preloaded with a few sample projects to help you get started and provide some inspiration! Select Sample Layout which will open a read-only view of the project. Before you are able to edit this project, you’ll need to click Copy to my Organization.

I hope this video helped you better understand how to navigate projects in the Paragon Design App. Thanks for watching, and see you in the next one!
