Kinesix Introduces Beta Program for New Product Launch:

"KX EDGE Studio" 

 

Studio is the NEW display/format builder for the Sammi and KX EDGE product lines! 

Our new state of the art tool is a pure Microsoft. NET based solution that will allow you to edit existing Sammi displays or create new ones all while giving you the option of web browser deployment. Although Studio itself currently runs on Windows you are still able to create Sammi version 6 and 7 displays to deploy on any platform.

Its easy to use layout is similar to the GUI of familiar Microsoft Office tools as well as the Visual Studio development suite. Studio is compatible with Sammi version 6 but will require an add-on to update your current Runtime client.  Our upcoming Sammi version 7 release will include the Studio add-on built right in.

Features/Benefits versus our Sammi Format Editor tool:

  • Access to a complete "true color" palette
  • Shape fills include gradient shading for a 3D and life-like look
  • Customizable "read-key" dialog's
  • Completely Web capable

If you are interested in becoming a beta customer for our new Studio product, please contact Kristan Westry.  This is a free program but will also be limited.

 

 Kinesix Now Offers On-line Sammi Training

 

New training module created in on-line form to meet the demands  of on-site, instructor based, Sammi training!

 We are planning on moving our traditional instructor led Format Editor training class along with all its modules and making it available on-line for simple independent, self-paced instruction. The on-line material also includes a "demo" version of Sammi that allows for the creation of the sample exercises.

 This training will be a licensed product and sold in "per student" packages. We are currently offering discounts as we begin to launch this tool.  Contact Kristan Westry for further information.
