Where do I change language, sign out, or jump to a function?

In two lines #

The top bar of every screen carries two things: the “Account” menu (language, sign out, contact support) and the “Go to…” palette, which also opens from the keyboard with ⌘K (Ctrl K on Windows). The palette only opens a page you can already see.

The steps #

  1. To change language, sign out or write to support, open the “Account” menu at the top right of any screen. The language is French or English; “Sign out” ends your session; “Contact support” opens an email already addressed to Ojja (see the support article). Escape, or a click outside, closes the menu.
  2. To go to a page without using the menu, click “Go to…” or press ⌘K (Ctrl K).
  3. Type a few letters: the list narrows. Accents and case make no difference.
  4. Move through the list with the arrow keys, open the chosen line with Enter, close with Escape: focus returns to where you were.

What the palette finds #

Four kinds of lines, each with its type shown: a function (it opens its sheet), a vendor (it opens the register filtered on that vendor), a document (your readout, the first inventory report) and a saved view of the register. Functions and vendors come from the current state of your workspace's register: until a snapshot exists, the palette offers only documents and views. When nothing matches, it says so: “No results for …”.

What the palette does not do #

It sends nothing, calls no service and searches only your workspace: its index is computed with the page, from what your account already sees, and never crosses two workspaces. It decides nothing and records nothing. Without the page's small script, the “Go to…” button runs the menu search.

On the Arvenne example #

The Arvenne example is a demonstration on fictional data: the palette searches the group's fictional functions.

What Ojja does not do #

Neither the account menu nor the palette shows a tool name or a figure outside your workspace, and neither writes into your tools: Ojja reads, and never writes.

The method #

What Ojja never reads.
