The Launch Pad helps new users become familiar with the most common PrimeExam tasks.
It is a learning and navigation tool. It does not complete tasks automatically. Instead, it opens the appropriate PrimeExam windows, highlights important controls, and guides you toward the steps needed to complete a task.
How the Launch Pad Works
When you select a task from the Launch Pad, PrimeExam may:
- Open the window needed for that task.
- Highlight the button, tab, or control to use next.
- Help you understand where a task begins.
- Show which parts of PrimeExam are involved.
The Launch Pad is especially useful when you are first learning PrimeExam or when you are performing a task you have not used recently.
