The Main Screen consists of several panels (from left to right, top to bottom):

Editor

A place to draw and manipulate individual glyphs. Features visual markers representing font metrics.

Table

A view of glyphs in the currently selected Tree. Used to select and manipulate multiple glyphs, or send individual glyphs to the Editor.

Tree

A nested list of character sets ("charsets") and encodings. You can switch between entries here to find or focus on groups of glyphs that you wish to edit.

Navbar

A bar at the bottom of the Main Screen. Contains buttons for font-wide operations (e.g. saving and loading) and settings.
