Contents

AJAX

AJAX is Javascript-based technology that typically runs from within a web browser and often from a single page. The technology allows web page scripts to call web servers, receive the resulting information and format and insert it into the existing web page. In this manner, the page can be more responsive to user interaction and the web browser doesn't need to reload an entire page each time a link is clicked.

Color Repository

Maxwell's central database of color data and its associated tools and technology.

ColorSet

Any group of colors in Maxwell's Color Repository is a Color Set. Most Color Sets in Maxwell today are measurements that were either uploaded as a text file or taken directly by a Maxwell-compatible client application. For this purpose you can think of them as measurement files or target measurements. When appropriate, Maxwell may refer to Color Sets as Measurements (such as when you upload measurements into a Track).

Device

Location

The Location description provides the user with a way to indicate different offices or plants that belong to the same company.
An example of Maxwell's Panes

Panes

Panes is a new interface loosely based on the Mac OS X Finder's multi-column view and web browser behavior. Panes is composed of a Rail and Panes. Panes appear on the Rail and show either List or Detail information. Lists, naturally, show collections of objects in a list form and Details show the information for a single Maxwell object.


Proxy

A user who acts on behalf of another user. If you create a new account, you are automatically a proxy user for that account and have full control over all the account's assets.

Rail

The Panes in Maxwell can be said to "hang" on the Rail. The Rail is similar to an infinitely wide, horizontally-scrolling window.
