Your first login: the dashboard tour and the labeling practice run

The first time you sign in, a short dashboard tour starts on its own. It points out the tabs, the New Project button, your plan card, and where Help lives. Close it with the X whenever you like; Help remembers the step you were on and offers Resume.

Nothing else launches by itself. The rest of the tours, including the hands-on labeling practice run, wait in Help until you start them.

The labeling practice run

• Draw: click the corners of each roof plane to trace its outline.
• Label: tag each edge (eave, ridge, hip, valley, and so on).
• Save: lock in your work, which completes the tour. Nothing you draw is kept.

How it works

• You're dropped into the real labeler with an actual aerial photo of a practice roof, not a static slideshow.
• The Coach panel guides you through each step in real time and advances as you complete each action.
• You'll trace three real planes and label every edge before the Save step unlocks.
• Exit any time with the X on the Coach. The tour shows as in progress in Help and starts from the top next time, because its steps depend on what is on the canvas.

Picking tours up later

Press ? anywhere, or click Help in the header, to open the tour list. Tours are numbered in the order we suggest; each shows Not started, the step you stopped on, or Done, and Next up at the top is the first one you have not finished. On a project page the Help button lists that page's tours first.

If the practice run won't start

The practice run relies on a configured demo project. If Help says the practice roof is not set up on this install, that's an admin/configuration step; an administrator needs to set the tutorial demo project before it can run.
