PMA.studio

We strive to make the user interface (UI) of PMA.studio (and PMA.vue) as recognizable and easy to use as possible.

The top-part of the window is a toolbar implemented as a ribbon. The ribbon is a standard application implement now that is found in both general purpose applications like Microsoft Office, and even in specialized ones like geographic information systems (GIS).

The ribbon is like a header at the top of the PMA.studio (and PMA.vue) web application (which in turn runs in a web-browser). It has tabs where all the options are categorized. Each tab has a group of options. You can use each option direct from the ribbon using the buttons.

A special mentioning is warranted for the ribbon's context-menu in the top left-hand corner of the ribbon: this brings up a separate menu with application-wide settings.

The multiple tabs, icons, groups, and the various options with their functionalities are described elsewhere in this wiki and can be consulted in two ways:

• Tab inventory
• Command inventory (useful in case you wish you (re)configure your ribbon)

The Home tab is the default tab in Excel. It has the most frequently used options which have different groups like a clipboard, font, alignment, number, styles, cells, and editing.
