Now that I have Pentaho BI up and running on a linux box, I am trying to make use of the Design Studio.
I have downloaded pentaho-design-studio_1.1.3.107.zip and have installed it on my WinXP workstation.
I have downloaded Pentaho_Design_Studio_1.1.3.pdf and am reading for reference.
On Page 5 of the pdf, in "Getting Started > Running the Design Studio", I do as the docs say, "select File > New > Project". I continue over to page 6, and change the default location to that of the pentaho-demo\\penthao-solutions dir on my linux box.
The docs then say I should see my new Pentaho Solutions project displayed in the tree on the left side. I don't.
Not worrying about that for now, I go to File > Open File, and open up the Pentaho Demo > Pentaho Solutions > samples > getting-started > HelloWorld.xaction file.
The screen now looks like it does on page 7 of the docs, but the icon does not display. I can click "Browse..." and locate the icon, but it never displays. I click "XML Source" at the bottom of the page and see the icon listed, but with no path info. That makes sense, as the icon .png and the .xaction file are in the same dir; but it never shows up.
What am I doing wrong? I'm not sure how to proceed at this point.
