Visiopharm General

Visiopharm is a module driven application, enabling users to utilize both standard and customized functionalities via individual modules.

These individual modules are controlled via the Visiopharm main interface consisting of individual areas: the Working area, the Ribbon, the Drawing Tool and the Database. The layout of some of the user interface can be changed by the user, if Layout Locked is unchecked in options. The layout is changed by dragging e.g. the database and allows the user to customize the layout.
