You can start the Recipe Builder from the iFIX WorkSpace's system tree. By opening the FIX Recipes folder in the system tree and double-clicking the New Recipe icon, you can launch the Recipe Builder. When the application opens, the Recipe Development window, shown in the following figure, appears.
Recipe Development Window
Once the program starts, it displays, by default, a blank untitled recipe.
If you attempt to start the Recipe Builder and you do not have rights for the Recipe Development window, the Recipe Operations window appears.
To obtain the rights to display the Recipe Development window, consult your system administrator.
Once the Recipe Builder starts, you can begin creating a new recipe by entering data into each cell. You can also create a new recipe by selecting the New command. When you select this command, the Recipe Builder closes the open recipe, prompting you to save any unsaved changes, and then displays a blank recipe.
In addition to starting the Recipe Builder with a blank recipe, you can automatically open a master or control recipe by double-clicking an icon from the Master Recipe or Control Recipe subfolders, located in the WorkSpace system tree.
