The main interface

Startup screen

The Startup screen presents the most common tasks that can be performed when launching the software, such as opening one of the recently used events or creating a new event.

Ribbon and main menu

The ribbon replaces the old menus and toolbars from previous versions of Wiclax. It allows more intuitive and hierarchical access to all the software's features, which are grouped by theme. The [Alt] key activates the ribbon keyboard shortcuts, double-clicking on the tabs frees up the space occupied by the ribbon.

The main menu opens by clicking on the software icon, at the top left of the ribbon. It lists the main actions that apply to event files.

By right-clicking on one of the buttons on the ribbon, you can add it to the always-visible shortcut bar at the top of the window.

Quick search

A search box is always displayed in the title bar of the main window.

You can access it using the keyboard with shortcuts Control + F or Control + P.

In the first case it is used to search for a competitor, by name or bib number. Once found, you can quickly consult the summary of his information (registration data, results), tell if he has arrived or been timed somewhere, locate him in the active grid or even edit him in the registration or result entry forms.

Command search is very convenient because it allows you to perform a task without using the mouse or having to remember where it is located on the ribbon. For example, by typing Control + P and then 'po' you can immediately validate with enter to open the podiums.

And since the history is preserved, if you want to display the podiums again then Control + P and Enter will do the trick.
