Choose the Right Environment for Your Needs

Workshop4 is not one-size-fits-all; it provides four distinct development environments. You can choose based on the specifics of your project or your familiarity with the tools, ensuring that there is an environment that’s right for you. In addition, Workshop4 also provides Arduino-compatible environments, enabling you to easily create a project using both a 4D and an Arduino product.

Workshop4 IDE PRO

The Workshop4 IDE PRO License is an optional upgrade that provides access to advanced features.

Although Workshop4 is free to download and use, the PRO features require a paid license to unlock.

The Workshop4 IDE PRO License unlocks the Genie Magic for the ViSi-Genie environment and the Smart Widget Editor for both ViSi and ViSi-Genie.

New features and additions are continually being developed, and once you’ve purchased the license, updates are made available for free.

Smart Widget Editor

Smart Widget Editor

The Smart Widget Editor is a comprehensive tool which allows you to create and animate Gauges, Sliders, Knobs and more, using the tools provided. This allows you to easily add custom graphics and build customised widgets, exactly as you want them.

  • Users can create complex widgets with up to six layers, including the layer for the base image. The order of the layers can be arranged as desired.

  • Each layer can contain one or more images arranged in sequence that can be manipulated in a variety of ways. Image manipulation options include horizontal motion, vertical motion, and angular motion. Additionally, the transparency of a layer can be set.

  • Two or more layers can be linked to produce synchronized movements of images. This enables the generation of complex widgets with multiple moving parts. Clockwork feature is also supported. This enables users to quickly generate clock widgets.

  • Each layer can have a numeric part which can display numbers in various fonts and formats. Alternatively, the numeric part can be a fixed sequence of text.

  • The output frames can be utilized using any of the supported Workshop4 environments.
