The button Open app opens the file chooser to select an RPGM app (.pgm file) and executes it. After this first run, the app will be listed below, and a simple click will on Run executes it again.

A click on Details opens a menu:

  • Details shows the version, the description, the company and the path of the application.
  • Changelog gives the changelog of the application.
  • Update from file button refreshes the information.
  • Open folder opens the folder in which the pgm file of the application is.
  • Remove removes the application of your client. It does not delete the file, only the link in your RPGM Client to the file.

Clicking on File -> Settings... will open the settings modal.

You can choose here

  • The theme (between Light and Dark). It only concerns the RPGM Client, not the RPGM applications you will run.
  • The language of RPGM. You will need to restart RPGM to apply it. It only concerns the RPGM Client, not the RPGM applications you will run.
  • The output folder. It is the default place in which the output of the RPGM applications is saved.
  • R panel in which you have the R path.
  • Python panel in which you have the Python path.

Running an app

Once the RPGM application is running, using App in the top left menu displays several actions.

  • Open app console (CTRL+R) opens the Error/R/Python consoles, which help to debug the application. The errors from the R/Python console are printed on a specific panel, separately.
  • Open output folder opens the output folder. You can also access it at the end of the application, if it has an end! A dashboard may not have one.
  • Restart app restarts the RPGM application;
  • Quit app puts RPGM to the welcome menu in which you can select an application to run;
