Create a lab manual project as the first step of adding a lab manual to a lab.

A lab manual project is a kind of container that consists of manual instances. An instance can have a draft, imported, or published status.

Procedure

  1. On the Lab Manual Projects page click Add New. A form opens that allows you to create a new lab manual project.
  2. On the form, click Start a Manual Project. The Start a Manual Project form opens.
    Note:

    The Upload a Manual option allows you to upload instructional content from your local machine to a manual project you select. The result is an imported instance. The Import from ScreenSteps option allows you to import instructional content from the ScreenSteps authoring tool into a manual project you select. The result is an imported instance.

  3. On the Start a Manual Project form, specify a name for your manual project and then click Create.
    Note:

    First Numbered Step # refers to the step at which to start numbering the manual. The number 1 would be the normal behavior, while the number 2 would show the first step as a • in the step bubbles. The number 3 would show two bubbles and then the third step would be labeled 1 and so on.

Results

The Lab Manual Projects page reopens and now lists the manual project you just created.
