2 Logging into MetaEdit+

MetaEdit+ is a repository-based application and therefore a connection with the repository must be established during the start-up. When started, MetaEdit+ opens a Startup Launcher as shown in Figure 2-1.

Make sure that the ‘demo’ repository is selected from the Log in to Repository list and ‘User’ is selected as Repository User. Select ‘Family Tree’ from the Open Projects list (as in Figure 2-1) and press Login. If you are using an evaluation version of MetaEdit+ and this is your first login, a dialog will open for entering your evaluation license code. Enter the evaluation license code exactly as given in the evaluation instructions and press OK.

After a successful login the Startup Launcher will close and you should see the main MetaEdit+ Launcher (Figure 2-3).
