<h1>ReleaseForge Main Window</h1>

The main window of ReleaseForge is broken up into several easy to use components.

<p>
<center>
<img src="mainwindow.png"><br>
<font size="-1">Main Window</font>
</center>
<p>

Upon <a href="login.html">logging into SourceForge</a> a list of your projects is downloaded.  
If it is the first time that ReleaseForge has been run then ReleaseForge will also download a 
list of packages for each of your projects.  A list of your projects and package data is cached 
in the <a href="config.html">data directory</a>'s projects file.  Each time you login to your 
SourceForge account the current SourceForge project list is compared to the cached projects.  
For each new project that you have project administrative/release tech priviledges for, the 
package list is also downloaded. <p>

You first select one of your SourceForge projects to work on from the <i>Projects</i> combobox.  If you only 
belong to a single project, that project is automatically selected.<p>

<center>
<img src="projects.png"><br>
<font size="-1">Projects Combobox</font>
</center>
<p>

After selecting a project you then select a package to work on from the <i>Packages</i> combobox.  If the 
selected project has only a single package, then that package will automatically be selected.
<p>

<center>
<img src="packages.png"><br>
<font size="-1">Packages Combobox</font>
</center>
<p>

If you would like to create a new release for the selected project and package press the <a href="new_release.html">Create New 
Release</a> button.

<p>
<center>
<a href="new_release.html"><img src="package_new_release.png"></a><br>
<font size="-1">Launches the Release Wizard</font>
</center>
<p>

If you would like to edit an existing release for the selected project and package the <a href"edit_release.html">Edit Release</a> 
button.

<p>
<center>
<a href="edit_release.html"><img src="edit_release.png"></a><br>
<font size="-1">Launches the Release Wizard</font>
</center>
<p>


In addition to creating new release and editing an existing release, you can also rename the package or change the visibility 
status of the package on the <i>Details</i> tab.
<p>

<center>
<img src="package_details.png"><br>
<font size="-1">Package Details</font>
</center>
<p>

After making your changes to the package, press the <i>Update Package</i> button.

<center>
<img src="package_update.png"><br>
<font size="-1">Package Details</font>
</center>
<p>

The <i>Options</i> tab allows you to create a new package.  Additionally, this tab allows you <i>Refresh the 
Package List</i>.  Since ReleaseForge only downloads packages the first time a project is imported it may be 
necessary to refresh the package list if another SourceForge project admin has created a package for the same 
project.
