Processing consists of 2 windows; Processing Development Environment(PDE) which is a simple text editor for writing code, and Display Window which displays the result of the code written in PDE.
Again, PDE has 5 different parts(for mac users); Toolbar, Tabs, Text editor, Message area, and Console. The menu of the processing software is located in the menu bar because I use Mac OSX.
- Menu : A pull-down menu bar with File, Edit, Sketch, Tools, Help functions.
- Toolbar : consists of the functions like Run, Stop, New, Open, Save, Export
- Tabs : a user can use Tab in one sketch(same as a project) to make several different codes.
- Text Editor : the main working space for writing codes.
- Message Area, Console : displays the system messages when running codes
Once you finish writing codes within the text editor, press the Run button(located on the left side on Toolbar or Command+R for mac users), then the result of the code will be displayed on Display Window.
