Desktop

The Desktop is where you create, modify and execute jobs.

A Desktop with two jobs being edited and one executable

This Desktop has jobs being edited and a job that is ready to execute:

  • Jobs that show their individual modules, like ReadImage → Show, are being edited.
  • The 4-pointed star, here named “Untitled”, is an executable. See Making an Executable Job.

Image processing modules take in one or more input images. Every processing module has only one output image.

To build a job, see Constructing and Editing a Job.

Multiple Desktops

You can organize your work on several Desktops. Use the Desktops menu to create a new Desktop or to switch between them. Hoku saves your Desktops when you quit, and restores them the next time you start it.

For the Desktop's right-click commands, see Desktop Popup Menu.
