Creating Viewer Objects in Grid Studio and define the Home Frame

Each Viewer instance requires a corresponding object in Grid Studio. These objects must be added to the Project Tree.

Depending on the target platform—such as Web Viewer, Grid Viewer, or Grid Touch—each object provides additional settings specific to that device type. These platform-specific configurations are described in the corresponding subsections.

When selecting a viewer object in the Project Tree, a Home Frame must be defined in the Inspector. The Home Frame specifies which frame will be displayed when the viewer is first opened.

This frame acts as the initial page that loads when the viewer application starts or when the webpage is opened.

To assign the Home Frame, select the Viewer object in the Project Tree. In the Inspector, locate the parameter called Home Frame, which initially displays “Select an Object”.

There are two ways to assign a frame:

Drag Selection Method Click and hold the Home Frame parameter, then move the mouse over the desired Frame in the workspace or Project Tree and release the mouse button. This assigns the selected frame to the parameter.

Selection Menu Method Alternatively, click the Home Frame parameter once. This opens a selection menu showing the entire project structure, including all Artboards. Navigate to the desired Artboard to see the list of available Frames, and select the frame you want to use as the Home Frame.

Once assigned, this frame will be displayed when the Viewer is opened or loaded.
