The following describes how to create a worklist in ISLM.

Upload the file

ClickAdd to profilebutton to upload the required file. The project to which the file is uploaded will be selected in the Model Settings section of the Create page in System Settings > Analysis Process according to the selected analysis process. It is also important to note that the supported formats for file uploads will also follow the rules defined in Custom FilesIf the user uploads the corresponding data file in the form of a custom file, it can be analyzed immediately after the upload is completed.

Establish a gate

In the 3D Viewport, the steps to create a gate are:

1.Click on the toolbar aboveset model gateto select the desired gate type from the gate wizard's selection list.

2.When you select the gate type, the right side will also appeargate wizardPanel; Also available below the panelguideinformation, clickmorebutton to display the full gate description.

3.Select the appropriate position on the object and click it, and the gate is set.

4.When you're done, the Gate Wizard panel will becomepin gatepanel, set gate information, and then click itokto set the next gate. Note that if you click the next button of the window while the panel is still open, a blocking message will appear: ".please close the setting panel before click next button

Note: Before a complete gate is established, the user can interrupt the establishment in the following ways:

Click the Close button at the top right of the Gate Wizard panel.
