6.4 Controlling execution

6.4.1 Starting and stopping applications

Application > Start (or the toolbar start/resume button ()) executes the application with which the window is associated.

After you have started executing an application, the Application > Start command is never available again until you stop the application with Application > Stop, or until the application terminates normally.

Application > Stop (or the toolbar stop button ()) terminates the process of the application with which the window is associated. Before terminating the process, Functional Developer asks you to confirm that you want to do so. This helps reduce the chance of an accidental termination that loses valuable application state.

After you have stopped an application in this way, you can start it again with Application > Start.
