The program provides five modes in which to view project. These modes will enable you to preview and test your projects before publishing them for distribution.
![]() Edit Mode (Shift + F12) |
Edit mode is the working mode in which you create project and edit the changes. When you create a new project, it will default to Edit mode. To view project in Edit mode, select Edit from the Modes group on the View ribbon, click the Edit bottom-bar graphic |
|
In Run mode, you may view project with all buttons, links, and actions active. For example, in run mode, when you click on the Next button within project, it will navigate to the next page, enabling you to run the content of project, and test its functionality while having your Project Explorer in view. To view project in run mode, select Run from the Modes group on the View ribbon, click the Run bottom-bar graphic |
|
Preview mode shows project in a centered background outside of the interface. All buttons, links, and actions are active. This functions identically the same as when in Run mode, however, you are no longer viewing project within the interface. To view project in Preview mode, select Preview from the Modes group on the View ribbon, click the Preview bottom-bar graphic |
|
Debug mode is similar to Run mode. In Debug mode, all buttons, links, and actions are active, enabling you to run the content of project, and test its functionality while having your Project Explorer in view. In addition, a debug window logs all actions executed and all variable manipulations as you preview the functionality of project. To view project in Debug mode, select Debug from the Modes group on the View ribbon. When you close the debug window, you will be returned to Edit mode. Additionally, you can change variable values and see the effects on project while in Debug mode. You can also control the type of information you would like displayed within the debug window, such as the original and new variable values for variables. For details, see Working with the Debug window. |
