Getting around

Getting around PortSpace.

Your day starts on Home: what needs you today, your tasks, anything late in red, and anything due soon in amber.

Under them, what’s waiting on your teammates: a task you handed on, and a review you asked for.

The bar at the top goes everywhere: your projects, tasks and calendar here,

and the product library here.

Search finds specifications, products, files and meetings, across your projects.

A project’s tabs follow the job, left to right: brief, specify, then order.

The brief gives each area a card: what it needs, its pictures and colors, and how much is specified.

Specify holds every item by area, with the team’s swatch boards, layouts and renderings beside it.

When an item is ready, ask a colleague to check it, as an internal review.

Every change is kept: issue a revision with a note, and the history shows what changed, who, and when.

To bring in a product, click the Clip bookmark on the maker’s page,

or, if the site won’t allow it, add screenshots instead.

To hand over, choose the items in a new issue set, and make the spec book:

a PDF in your firm’s look, with a page for every item.

Each new issue lists what was added, removed or changed since the last.

And Help is always in the bar: the manual, these videos, and a line to support.

That’s the lay of the land. More videos: portspace.io/videos
