The Project Manager dialog has two tabs: one for Projects and one for Project Groups.
The Project Manager displays a Name and a brief Description of a Project, dimensions for a particular problem (Type: dimensions are either 2D or 3D, and the Type of Geometry is either Simple (S), Layered (L), or General (G)), what Processes are involved (W – water flow, S – solute transport, T – heat transport, R – root water uptake, Inv – Inverse problem), when the project was created (Date) and whether or not the Results exist. The Project Manager can also display a preview of the Project’s geometry (see the check box Show Project Preview).
