<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.
