Getting Started with GdsViewer

Starting your project is super simple! You just need your GDS files, which are the main resources you'll be working with. Plus, to help you out, the app comes with a sample database. This lets you play around with its features and functions without any stress.

Managing Your Projects

The start tab in GdsViewer is where all the magic happens for managing your project files and directories. You can easily add files by dragging and dropping them in. If you have text documents for your projects, no problem! You can include those too.

Organizing Files in a Tree View

The app offers tabs that cover layers, tags, messages, preferences, navigation options, measurements, and much more! And if you want to share your designs? You can export images or even create VTK 3D representations!
