Creating Activities and Successors

About the Activity Nodes and Cloning Activities and Trees

You can create a new activity in these ways:

  • In the Project window, right-click an activity and choose Create New Activity ( My Project node Icon My Project node only) or Create New Successor (all other nodes).
  • Select the activity you want to create from the submenu.
  • At the bottom of the Configuration window, click Create New Activity or Create New Successor and select the activity to create.
  • Use the available templates or the Quick Start wizard: Click the My Project node Icon My Project node and select templates from the Configuration window to quickly add a set of activity nodes to the tree.

The activity nodes listed in the table are in alphabetical order not in order of selection from the various menus. Additional licenses are also required to access full functionality for any Add-on Modules.

None; this is the first node of the tree structure. You can add activities using the Quick Start wizard or templates.

Getting Started Links and Templates

AM Calculator, System Definer, Binary Calculator, Ternary Calculator, Process Metallurgy Calculator, or Experimental File Reader. Also choose templates from this level.

AM Calculator

My Project, Scheil Calculator

Plot Renderer, Diffusion Calculator, Precipitation Calculator

When a Diffusion Calculator or Precipitation Calculator is added, a full set of nodes, including a System Definer and Plot Renderer, are added as a template to the top My Project node. The Diffusion Calculator or Precipitation Calculator is linked to the AM Calculator.
