Initializing help system before first use

Create a Project with the Desktop Edition

A project contains all the source files that make up an Xpress Insight app or Mosel application.
Create a new Mosel project, Xpress Insight Mosel project, or Xpress Insight Python project.
  1. To create a new project:
    • To create a simple Mosel project, choose the Create Project > CREATE MOSEL PROJECT menu option.
    • To create a new Xpress Insight project, you must select to work in either Python or Mosel.
      • To develop using Mosel, choose the Create Project > CREATE INSIGHT (MOSEL) PROJECT menu option.
      • To develop using Python, choose the Create Project > CREATE INSIGHT (PYTHON) PROJECT menu option.
  2. Navigate your filesystem to a folder where you wish to store your project and click OK.
    The project opens—depending on the kind of project you created, it will contain a minimal Xpress Insight app for Python or Mosel, or a minimal Mosel application. You can use a Mosel project to begin the development of a standalone Mosel model. The remainder of this guide focuses, however, on activities relating to Xpress Insight Mosel projects and apps.
    Note The Xpress Insight Python Developer Guide offers information on using Python with Xpress Workbench.
