Introduction

The editor is the main component of the Simotel software. The call flow from the moment of entry to exit in Simotel is planned and implemented using the components available in the editor section. Before familiarizing yourself with the editor components, it is better to first understand the parts and functions of the editor.

Components of the Editor

• Component Bar: The right sidebar containing all the editor components.

• Component: Each component is responsible for performing a specific operation in the call path.

• Design Plot: The white background page of the editor.

• Search Button: Located in the lower left bar, it allows searching between pages by name (very useful when there are many pages).

• Pagination: Located in the lower left bar, it allows creating a new page and dividing the call path structure into different pages for ease of implementation.

• Save Button: Any changes in the monitoring editor environment are local and are only saved and executed by pressing the save button in the system. This button's behavior is global, and changes on all pages are saved.

• History Button: Displays the history of changes made to the editor. It is possible to revert to previous changes from this location. To register and execute previous changes, the save button must also be applied.

• Help Button: A tool for guiding the components of the editor.

• Map: While moving the design plot, a small page is displayed at the bottom of the plot that helps with positioning in the plot. To use it in the dial plan page, press the left mouse button and move the mouse.
