In ALINK3D, you manage projects on the dashboard, polish them in the 3D editor, and publish them with Share.
Dashboard
This is the first screen you see after signing in.
| Area | What's there |
|---|---|
| Left menu | Your workspace and plan, All projects, Trash, Account settings, your remaining credits ("About N CAD conversions left") and Log out. Share links and Analytics are coming soon |
| Top | Project search, sort (Last modified, Name), source type filter, New project |
| Cards | Project name, source type, status (Draft, Waiting to convert, Converting, Conversion failed, Shared). Use the More menu at the top right to Rename, Duplicate or Move to trash |
Clicking a card opens the conversion screen for projects that are converting or have failed, and the 3D editor for all others.
