The KEXI Menu

The KEXI Menu groups project-related commands. It is a special menu because it is activated using the KEXI Button, rather than from the menu bar. Selecting most of the commands opens a screen adjacent to the menu, offering the features of the chosen command.

The commands offered are:

Welcome

Here, you can choose to open one of the KEXI projects you recently worked on. This command is similar to the Recent Documents menu found in other applications. Projects stored both as files and on database servers are listed here.

Open Project

Here, you can choose to open any KEXI projects whether stored in a file or a database server.

Close Project

This command closes the currently open KEXI project. You will be prompted to save any unsaved changes in the project.

New Project

This command launches an assistant to create a new KEXI project.

Import, Export or Send

This command launches an assistant to import an entire existing database as a new KEXI project.

Quit

Closes the KEXI application. Any existing project will be closed first, if open.

Links

At the bottom of the menu, there are additional symbols that can be clicked. Clicking the Calligra logo opens the Calligra project's webpage in a web browser. Clicking the Social media icons opens the KEXI channels. There is also information about the version of KEXI.
