Introduction

Introduction

This documentation describes all relevant aspects for users of FirstSpirit™ SiteArchitect.

Based on the user interface of FirstSpirit SiteArchitect and its screen view divided into three,

  • the elements of the tree structure (in the left-hand column of the screen) are described first,
  • followed by the editing screens for the individual objects and other functions in the center column,
  • and finally the functions in the right-hand column.

Template development is not covered in this documentation; for detailed information on this topic see Overview (→FirstSpirit Online Documentation).
