The Pirana window has four main areas, in addition to the Menus and Toolbar:
Area A contains project navigation and management tools.
Area B has tools for opening different applications, e.g., a console window (
), calculator (
), spreadsheet application (
), or text editor (
). There also tools for controlling the models listed in area C. (Note that entering a command in the field next to and pressing the <Enter> key on your keyboard executes the command and opens the console window.)
Area C is a table of the folders (listed first in the table) and models in the current project. Referred to as the “model overview”.
Area D contains tabs that list files (see “Files tab”), parameter estimates (see “View and compare parameter estimates”), R-scripts (see “R scripts for graphs and file processing”), reports (Reports tab).
There are tooltips for many of the icons, buttons, and other parts of the user interface. Hover the mouse cursor over the item to display any tooltips.
The visibility of the toolbar is controlled using the View > Show toolbar menu option or through the right-click menu of a model (Batch operations > Show toolbar).
