Starting as a stand-alone application

On Windows:

When you install “Front Panel Designer,” an icon for the ordering program is also created in the Program Manager. You can therefore open the ordering program in the same way as “Front Panel Designer” itself.

On Mac OS X:

After installation, “Front Panel Designer” is available as an application, so you can only start the ordering program from within this program.

On Linux:

After installation, both Front Panel Designer and the ordering program will be listed as available applications, which can be opened independently of each other.

Overview and procedure

The main window in the ordering program is divided into a toolbar and a workspace containing six tabs.

The sequence of the six tabs corresponds to the steps required to place an order, which are usually taken one after another – from filling the shopping cart through entering all of the ordering information, to specifying production and shipping options and generating an overview before finalizing your order placement online.

You can use the arrow buttons at the bottom of the tabs to switch between the different stages of the ordering process. you can of course also switch between tabs by clicking on the one in question.
