# DISSCO tutorials (Markdown)

The LASSIE UI has changed since older Documents/* tutorials were written.
New tutorials live here in Markdown so screenshots and steps can track the current UI.

## Start here

1. Build and launch LASSIE using the project README.
2. Work through [getting-started.md](getting-started.md) for a first composition.
3. See [ui-map.md](ui-map.md) for where common controls moved in the current layout.

## Legacy materials

Older tutorial sources under `Documents/` remain for historical reference. Prefer the Markdown guides in this folder when onboarding.

## Contributing screenshots

Embed images next to the guide (`tutorials/images/`) and use relative links. Keep captures cropped to the relevant panel.

# Getting started with LASSIE

## Prerequisites

- A working DISSCO / LASSIE build from this repository
- Sample projects or default templates if shipped with the build

## First session

1. Launch the LASSIE application.
2. Create or open a project from the current **File** menu (labels may differ slightly from older PDFs).
3. Locate the main workspace: score/timeline view, object inspectors, and transport controls.
4. Add a simple object or event and verify it appears in the inspector.
5. Save the project and re-open it to confirm the round-trip.

## Where things moved

If an older tutorial refers to a panel you cannot find, check [ui-map.md](ui-map.md) and the **View** menu for panes that are now toggleable.

# LASSIE UI map (current)

Use this as a cheat-sheet when following legacy tutorials that predate the redesign.

| Older name / idea | Where to look now |
|-------------------|-------------------|
| Main score view | Central workspace / timeline |
| Object properties | Inspector / details side panel |
| Palette / add objects | Toolbar or **Add** / context menu |
| Transport (play/stop) | Transport bar (often top or bottom) |
| Project settings | **File** → project/settings or gear icon |

Update this table when layouts change again so tutorials stay accurate without rewriting every screenshot.
