[CS2] Game Tabs

When you edit a game there are a variety of tabs available to you, some edit various properties of a game, while others let you drill deeper into the game's components.

Design

Designs are the visual representation of a set of components, such as cards, tiles, chits, board, mats, etc. Think of this like an image editor.

Datasets

Datasets are the data representation of a set of components. Each row in a dataset represents all the data for a single card or tile. Think of these like spreadsheets.

Font Palette

Component.Studio 2 comes with thousands of fonts, and you can upload your own. In order to make that more manageable, the Font Palette allows you to select just a handful of fonts that might be useful to your specific game. By default you'll get these 3, but you can add more by hitting the green add more fonts button.

Notes

This is just a place for you to jot down any notes you have about this game.

Settings

Here you can rename a game, or mark it archived if you're no longer actively working on it. Don't worry, after it's archived you can still access it by filtering to display archived games in the game manager.

Exports

An export is the process of creating an archive. You can track its progress on this tab.

Collaborators

If you want someone else to be able to work on your game with you, you can add them as a collaborator. They have to have an account on the site, and then you can search by name, username, or email address.
