Workspace (Panels)

A guide to the BriskFyr UI itself — what each panel is for and how to work it, independent of any particular model. Where the reference covers components, this section covers the surrounding workspace.

Planned pages:

  • Toolbar — the Build / Joints / Springs & Loads / Requests / Demos / Solve groups.
  • Inspector — the model tree, selection, and editing a component's fields.
  • Viewport & ViewBar — orbit/zoom, view options (up axis, grid plane, reaction overlays).
  • Solve, Runs & Console — running a solve, live progress, the run history, and log output.
  • Plots — reading Request channels as interactive charts.
  • Settings — Environment (gravity) and View preferences.
  • Projects — saving, naming and reopening a model.

Saving is automatic

You don't save manually. The first time you solve, BriskFyr creates a project for your model (under Projects), and each run is saved under it — reopen, replay, rename or pin runs later. Loading a demo or New starts a fresh project.

Being built out

These pages are authored against the live UI, reusing tutorial screenshots where they fit. Until a panel's page is live, its behaviour is covered inline across the tutorials.
