The Welcome tab opens when you launch GenVision Pro and can also be launched using the View > Welcome command. This tab is a central location for opening or creating sessions or accessing help. As you open sessions, the Welcome “project” will remain as the leftmost tab unless you manually move or close it. We recommend leaving the Welcome tab in place, since it has time-saving shortcuts to useful commands.
| Tab on left | Option on right | Shortcut to this menu command: |
|---|---|---|
| New | New session | File > New GenVision Pro Session. See Create a new session. |
| Add assemblies to new session | File > New GenVision Pro Session followed by File > Add Assemblies. See Create a new session and Add assemblies. | |
