Accessing e-gadgets within the e-gadget workshop

Access to all of our e-gadgets is by means of our own browser that we call the "e-gadget workshop". The relevant e-gadgets for a particular pack or for the library are located in folders that can be seen in the browser on the right hand side of the screen.

When a folder is selected the e-gadgets within that folder are represented by thumbnails at the lower right. Dragging or double clicking the thumbnail will open the associated e-gadget on the main part of the screen or "stage". This applies to any type of e-gadget.
