Overview

The Menu is your primary means of navigation throughout APDL.

To open the menu, you can tap the menu button at the top left of the screen or swipe the screen to the right. All data on the screen will slide right to reveal the menu underneath. Closing the menu is accomplished in the reverse order. You can tap the menu button again, or swipe the data area of the screen to the left.

While the menu is open, it can be scrolled up or down to view all menu items.

The menu is broken down into several groups of similar pages. Tap any item in the menu to go to that page. Several items display information directly on the menu for quick reference.
