Navigating System Optimiser

System Optimiser's Main Window.

System Optimiser features a clearly defined workflow to enable the creation of system designs efficiently and intuitively. View Modes allow for the layout of the software to be changed to target specific tasks as part of a complex system design. These layouts are made up of Panels - a selection of toolboxes for interacting with components of the system design, from manipulating venue geometry to designing sources. The Graphical User Interface (GUI) is able to be customised by the user, including the creation of Custom View Modes, and Panels arranged in an unlimited number of Additional System Optimiser Windows.
