# New Project

Point at a project type at the top, for example FDTD, and click + New Project below it. Or click New › New Project. In the Create New Project dialog, pick a blank project, Import from GDS File or an example. The new project goes into the folder you are in, and the editor opens it. See Create Your First Project.

Charge offers Try it in Python instead. RF and PhotonForge projects open in a new browser tab. Library opens the examples.

# New Folder

Click New › New Folder, enter the Folder name, and click Create. Folders can hold subfolders.

# Project Actions

A project's ⋮ menu offers Get Info, Move, Rename, Duplicate, Delete, Download and Refresh. An archived project also offers Unarchive. A folder's menu offers Get Info, Move, Rename, Delete and Refresh. Delete asks you to confirm; for a folder, you type Delete.

Select several rows with their check boxes to Move, Delete or Download them together. A folder also has a star (Add to Favorites) and a pin (Pin to Top).

# Find a Project

Type in Search name and ID to find a project by its name or its ID. To search folder names, switch the menu next to the search box to Folder. Filters › Category shows All, Folder, Favorites or Shared to Web (the projects you shared with a web link). The sort button orders the list by Name, Version Storage or Date Created.
