Projects

A project represents an FEA model. A project can contain multiple designs of a model, and each design can consist of multiple versions.

For a description of these terms, see What are designs and versions?

When you visit the Projects page of the dashboard, you’ll see projects that you have recently accessed plus a list of projects of which you are an owner.

projects does not include any projects that you can view or edit but do not own. To see these, go to the Team page.

For information about the different permission levels for project collaborators, see Project collaborators.

Archive a project

You can archive projects that you’re not working on anymore. This hides them from projects and also disables the ability to edit them. You can, however, still access archived projects, and you can choose to unarchive them at any time.

Archiving does not affect your team: when you archive a project, any other owners of that project will still see the project in their projects and will also still be able to edit the project. Archiving is simply a way for you to “tidy up” your own projects.
