==Create a New Project==
To create a new CSA-Project, you must have the necessary '''[[Rights Management|Rights]]''' to do so. A server administrator can manage all the rights. More information can be found on the '''[[Rights Management]]''' page.


A project name and a unique project ident must be supplied.
# Click the '''Create new project button'''. The '''Create New Project''' dialog appears.
When you enter a project name a project ident will be created of the name by default but

created and should shown up in the database window.
# Adjust the '''Map settings''' ('''[[Create a New Map#Massstab und Koordinatensystem|Set Scale and Coordinate System]]''') as you are used to from local OCAD projects.


If an existing geo-referenced OCAD-File is imported ('''[[Create a New CSA Project#Import_Map|Import Map]]''') later, you can leave the '''Map settings''' blank and import them with the OCAD-File.


==Draw with database connection==
The '''Use a base project''' option can be enabled if you want to use another CSA-Project as a template. The '''Map settings''' part of the dialog disappears and instead of that, you can choose a '''Base project''' from the dropdown list.


To draw objects directly into the database you have to create a database project first. As
[[File:CreateNewProjectBaseProject.PNG]]
next step load a file with a symbol set. Now the database project can be associated with
the file. Therefore open the database window, select a project from the projects grid and
click '''OK'''.


Every new drawn object is now immediately saved into the database project. The objects
The new CSA-Project takes all map settings ('''[[Create a New Map#Massstab und Koordinatensystem|Set Scale and Coordinate System]]'''), symbols and colors from the chosen project. They are copied once and are not updated if you change anything in the base project. In this case an update must be done manually.

the last change.


==Import Map==
A new created CSA-Project is still empty. To import a local OCAD map, follow these steps:
# Make sure that the CSA-Project is closed.
# Open the local OCAD-Project with the '''[[File#Öffnen|Open]]''' function in the '''[[File]]''' menu.
# When the local map is loaded click the [[File:Icon_ConnectDisconnect.PNG]] '''Connect/Disconnect''' icon in the '''Client Server''' toolbar.
# The '''New Connection''' dialog appears.
# Select the SC-Project in the table in the middle of the dialog.
# Check the '''Import mode''' option.
# Click the '''Load selected project''' button.
# The map opens but it is not added to the server yet. You have the option to [[File:Icon_GenerateMapPreview.PNG]] '''[[Working on a CSA Project#Generate Map Preview|Generate a Map Preview]]''' by clicking the corresponding icon in the '''Client Server''' toolbar. This will later help to handle big projects faster and to navigate easier through the map.
# To import the map click the [[File:Icon_ImportMap.PNG]] '''Import Map''' icon in the '''Client Server''' toolbar.
# The '''Import Map''' dialog opens with the following import options:
#: [[File:ImportMapDialog.PNG]]
## '''Import all objects''': If this option is checked, all objects are imported. Otherwise only '''[[Symbol|Symbols]]''', '''[[Colors]]''', '''[[Define Spot Colors|Spot Colors]]''' and '''[[Create a New Map#Massstab_und_Koordinatensystem|Map Settings]]''' are imported.
## '''Replace all symbols''': If this option is checked, all '''[[Symbol|Symbols]]''' in the existing CSA-Project are replaced with those in the local OCAD-Project.
## '''Replace all colors''': If this option is checked, all '''[[Colors]]''' in the existing CSA-Project are replaced with those in the local OCAD-Project.
## '''Replace all spot colors''': If this option is checked, all '''[[Define Spot Colors|Spot Colors]]''' in the existing CSA-Project are replaced with those in the local OCAD-Project.
## '''Replace scale and view parameter''': If this option is checked, the '''[[Create a New Map#Massstab_und_Koordinatensystem|Set Scale and Coordinate System]]''' in the existing CSA-Project is replaced with the one in the local OCAD-Project.
# Click the '''Import''' button. The objects are copied to the server. This can take some time depending on the number of objects imported. The progress can be seen in the '''[[Graphical User Interface#Statusleiste|Status Bar]]'''.
[[File:Hint.jpg]] All with an object connected '''[[Database|Database Links]]''' are imported, too.


==Add objects to the database==
==Get Objects==
After a CSA-Project was successfully created and some data (at least '''[[Symbol|Symbols]]''' and '''[[Colors]]''') exist, you are able to start working. Close all opened projects and then click the [[File:Icon_ConnectDisconnect.PNG]] '''Connect/Disconnect''' icon. The '''New Connection''' dialog opens. Select the CSA-Project, uncheck the '''Import mode''' option and click the '''Load Selected Project''' button. If you have created a '''[[Working on a CSA Project#Generate Map Preview|Map Preview]]''' during the import of a map, you will see it in the project (see picture). Otherwise the project is blank.


Add objects to the database is only needed to import objects. For importing one or more
[[File:GetObjects.PNG]]
selected objects the following steps needs to be done.
# load the file with the objects
# associate the file with a project from the projects grid
# select one or more objects
# click the '''Add objects to the database''' button
# the objects will be added to the database
All objects associated with the database will only be saved in the database. The same
applies for object changes too.


If a '''[[Working on a CSA Project#Generate Map Preview|Map Preview]]''' was generated, the loaded project shows a raster preview of the map which is handled as a normal raster background map and also can be hidden with the '''F10''' key or managed with the '''Manage''' command in the '''[[Background Map]]''' menu. To load objects of a certain area from the server move the map to the desired position and click the  [[File:Icon_GetObjectsFromCurrentView.PNG]] '''Get Objects from Current View''' icon in the '''Client Server''' toolbar. All objects which are in the current view are loaded from the server. If the '''Alt''' key is pressed when the [[File:Icon_GetObjectsFromCurrentView.PNG]] '''Get Objects from Current View''' icon is clicked, the '''Show Objects in Database''' dialog appears with advanced options. This dialog provides a table with all objects listed which are stored on the server.


==Add all objects to the database==
[[File:ShowObjectsInDatabase.PNG]]


To import all objects from a file into the database the following steps needs to be done:
* Click the '''Get all''' button to load the objects of the entire map. The number in brackets indicates the number of objects to be loaded.
# load the file with the objects
* Click the '''Get objects from current view''' button to load all objects of the current view which has the same effect as a simple click on the [[File:Icon_GetObjectsFromCurrentView.PNG]] '''Get Objects from Current View''' icon in the '''Client Server''' toolbar.
# associated the file with a project from the projects grid
* Click the '''Get selected object''' button to load the object which is selected in the table of the dialog.
# hold down the shift+alt key and click on the '''Add objects''' button
* Click the '''Load Objects from Symbol Tree''' button to load all objects with symbols which are together in a group in the symbol tree. This is especially useful if you want to load and edit for example only the roads:

==Add symbol descriptions to the database==
Next page: '''[[Working on a CSA Project]]'''<br />
 
Back to the '''[[Client Server Architecture]]''' page.<br />
To import the symbol descriptions into the database the following steps needs be done:
An overview about all pages dealing with the '''[[Client Server Architecture]]''' can be found in the corresponding category (see below for the link).
# load the file with the objects
# associated the file with a project from the projects grid
# hold down the alt key and click on the '''Add objects''' button
# all symbol descriptions from the file will be imported into the database
 
[[File:Hint.jpg]] '''Important note''': In the current implementation the symbol description depends on the
symbol number. Only '''ONE''' Symbol table is used no duplicate symbol numbers are
prevented and failure will occur if you try to import duplicate symbol numbers!
 
 
==Remove objects from the Database==
 
[[File:DeleteObjectInDatabase.PNG]]
To remove objects from the database not simple delete them with the delete key. By hitting
the delete key the object is only removed from the current view. Loading the project again
the object will show up as before. To remove an object from the database the object must
be checked out. After a successful checkout objects can be remove from the database
with a click.+
 
==Get all from current view==
 
[[File:GetObjectsFromCurrentView.PNG]]
To get all objects from the current loaded view click on the button. To get the objects
window hold down the alt – key and click on the button.
 
==Check out element(s)==
 
[[File:CheckOutSelectedObjects.PNG]]
To check out elements for editing from the database select the objects to be check out and
click on the button. If no problem occurs during the check out nothing seems to be done.
On any error a message will appear describing the error.
 
 
==Check in element(s)==
 
[[File:CheckInSelectedObjects.PNG]]
To check in elements you finished editing with select them and click on the '''Check in'''  
button. Now other users are able to check the elements out and edit them. To check in all
your objects checked out click on the '''show objects checked out''' button and there click
the '''Check in all''' button all.
 
==Objects dialog==
 
Hold down the alt key and Click on the '''get objects from current view''' button to get the
objects window.
 
[[File:ServerClient_ViewObjectInDB.PNG]]
 
All objects saved in the database. Here can be
chosen to '''Load all objects''', '''Get all from the current view''' of the work sheet or to '''get a
selected object'''. It is possible that not all objects are shown therefore click the '''Reload'''
button. All objects from the database are re-fetch. To get all objects from the database click
on the '''Get all''' button. Depending on how many objects are save in the database this may
takes a long time. The objects count is show in braces in the '''Get all''' button.
 
==Show checked out dialog==
 
With this dialog you can show all objects checked out by any user of the project. Only the
objects you have currently loaded are shown in the list.
 
[[File:ServerClient_ServerShowsCheckedOut.PNG]]
 
You can leave the window open an you will see all check in and check out by any user
working with the project. By clicking on of the rows in the list OCAD will jump to the
selected object in the current project. If you deselect the reload functionality you can click
the '''Reload''' button to reload the window manually otherwise the reload takes place every 3
seconds. The description column show you the symbol description of the object is drawn
with. The button '''Check in all''' checks in all your objects you have checked out for editing.
 
==Generate Project Preview==
 
With this functionality a raster map preview can be created.
 
[[File:ServerClient_GeneratePreview.PNG|200px]]
 
To generate a raster map preview the project must be drawn with real world coordinates.
As next step you have to set the pixel size per meter for the preview. By clicking '''OK''' the
generation process will start. First all objects from the database will be loaded into the
current worksheet. This step may take a longer time depends how many objects are in the
project. Afterwards the preview is generated and saved into the database. Now every time
you load the project from the database the preview will be loaded first. This may help you
to find the correct view in the file and you have to load only the objects you need to work
with.
