Overview
The project description window allows you to configure various elements of your project. This window includes the following tabs:
  • The "Project" tab, which allows you to enter general information about the project
  • The "Analysis" tab, which is used to associate an analysis with the project and/or with a UML model
  • The "Files" tab, which allows you to enter information about the data files used by the application (only if the project is bound to an analysis).
  • The "Live data" tab, which allows you to configure how the data from the data files is displayed in the different editors.
  • The "Languages" tab, which is used to configure the different languages used by the project as well as the options to be used for each language.
  • The "Style" tab, which allows you to customize the print preview and to choose the skin template theme and custom style sheet. You can also configure screen sizes.
  • The "SCM" tab, which is used to manage teamwork (SCM or GIT).
  • The "Options" tab, which allows you to configure the template update, backup and synchronization options. This tab is also used to enable the strict mode and to define the code style.
  • The "Advanced" tab, which allows you to enable or disable "Reports & Queries", configure AAFs, and define how the application is locked.
  • The "Compilation" tab, which allows you to configure the compilation options.

Project fonts

The projects for Android use the "Droid" fonts (Droid Sans, Droid Sans Mono and Droid Serif) in the editor. These fonts are automatically installed along with WINDEV Mobile on the development computer.
The "Project fonts" button allows you to add "TTF" or "OTF" files. The files with the added font will be copied to the "Fonts" subdirectory of the project.
The selected fonts will be available in the editor, included in the Android application and deployed. These fonts are also available in the report editor. Make sure that the added fonts support the charset used in your application and that they are redistributable.
