ATPDraw version 5.8 introduced the option to connect to a MYSQL database at www.atpdraw.net and upload/download projects for sharing.
This option requires that the users first register at the web-page.
The Web menu provides options to Register, Edit account, Unregister, Search and Download, Upload, and Moderate (moderators only)
Contains options for activating or rearranging circuit windows and showing or hiding the map window.
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Web site | Loads www.atpdraw.net in your web-browser. If ATPDraw is registered, you are automatically logged in. |
| Register | Simply verifies the email and password for direct access to the MySQL database at www.atpdraw.net. The password is stored in plain text is the atpdraw.ini file (but encrypted in the database). This is required to be able to upload/download cases. |
| Unregister | Local: Remove the information in the atpdraw.ini file (typically before returning the computer). |
| Download | Search and download projects uploaded by other users. Search by topic, keywords, authors and sort by time, rating, and number of downloads. Downloaded projects are stored in the WEB folder and opened directly in ATPDraw. |
| Upload | Upload the current active circuit to the database. Add keywords and an optional description. The uploaded project is moderated and marked with the name of the contributor. The uploaded projects cannot be deleted only replaced by projects with the same name. |
ATPDraw version 5.8 is locked to connections to www.atpdraw.net, but in principle (slightly source code modification) this could be any MYSQL server.
