Appendix A. Invoking Imagix 4DImagix 4D is started by running the executable ..\imagix\bin\imagix.exe (for Windows) or ../imagix/bin/imagix (for Unix/Linux). Normally, Imagix 4D is invoked without using any options. Starting Imagix 4D with one or more of the following options modifies its behavior.-cmmd filename Start Imagix 4D in batch mode, and execute the commands specified in filename. For major, repetitive tasks, such as regenerating project data or generating reports and documentation, you may want to run the tool in command line (batch) operation. This capability, including the commands and format of filename, is described further in Appendix B. -demo Start Imagix 4D, and automatically open the sample project. When started in demo mode, Imagix 4D automatically loads a sample project. No other projects can be opened, and no other data sources can be loaded. No license is consumed in demo mode; the same behavior occurs when Imagix 4D is run using a demo license key. -project dirname Start Imagix 4D, and automatically open project dirname. With opened with the -project option, Imagix 4D behaves like normal, with the single exception that the tool automatically opens the specified project. Through the user interface, the tool can open other projects, add data sources, etc. The -project option is most useful multi-user environments to focus less experienced users on specific projects. -quiet Start Imagix 4D in quiet modedirname. Certain automated testing environments, such as Jenkins, cause conflicts with Imagix 4D progress indicators. These indicators are suppressed in quiet mode. The -quiet option is normally used together with the -cmmd option. -regen dirname Start Imagix 4D, automatically open project dirname, and immediately regenerate the project data. Opening Imagix 4D with the -project option is similar to using the -project option, except that the project data is immediately regenerated, so that the project represents a current view of the source code. -1x or -2x Start Imagix 4D, and display the gui at either regular size (-1x) or double size (-2x) (Linux only) Certain Linux UHD (4K) environments do not automatically upscale the Imagix 4D gui, so that it appears at half size. Opening with the -2x option increases the size of the Imagix 4D displays. This larger size automatically remains on future invocations, until started with the -1x option.
