Creating Projects
Perform the following steps to create a new project:
- Choose 'File|New...' from the menu. The following dialog
appears:

- After choosing 'TeXnicCenter-Project' and pressing 'OK',
the following dialog is displayed:
- Enter a name for the new project in the 'Project title'-field.
- Modify the path of the project directory, shown in the 'Path'-field,
if necessary.
- Choose 'Create main file from template', if you wish to create
a new LaTeX-file and use it as the main file for the new project.
Choose 'Use existing file as main file', if you wish to use an
existing LaTeX-file as the main file for the new project.
- Click 'OK' to create the new project.
- If you have choosen the 'Create main file from template'-option
and if you already have specified the paths for the document templates, a dialog will appear, that allows you to
choose a template for the new LaTeX-file.
If the specified project directory does not exist, TeXnicCenter will create
it. It then will create the new project and the project's main file and open
both. Now you can make changes to the LaTeX-Document and you will see the structure of
your document in the structure view on the left. You can create more new LaTeX-files
and include them into your projects by inserting an \input
or \include
-command into your
project's main file or a file that is already included into the main file.
