Windows
=======

The Windows layout template is in the
`main_window <https://github.com/ansys/pyaedt-toolkits-common/tree/main/src/ansys/aedt/toolkits/common/ui/main_window>`_
directory in the repository.

The `Common_windows <https://github.com/ansys/pyaedt-toolkits-common/tree/main/src/ansys/aedt/toolkits/common/ui/common_windows>`_
directory contains the files for setting up the **main window**, **home menu**, and **settings column**.

The following script shows how to use the previous files to initialize the application.
