This chapter shows you how you can develop an application in OpenROAD Workbench, which includes visual editors that enable you to design the frames, menus, and other user interface components using standard point-and-click, drag-and-drop techniques.

You can use the various editors to work on a single application or component, or several applications and components simultaneously. Because you save the components of an application individually, you need not save the application itself unless you want to freeze it at a certain point by creating a numbered version.

You can run the application or any of its components at any point during the creation process to test them. After running the application or component in its current state, you can return to editing mode and make adjustments.
