If you work in an environment where there are several Alias products
installed, the first time you run Alias, you may be presented with a choice
of product to launch. The product choice depends on the licenses owned
by your organization.

If you select Surface or Design, skip to step 4#.
If you selected the Automotive product, you are presented with a
workflow selection.
3 For the purpose of these tutorials, choose the Default workflow, which
gives you access to all 3D curve and surface creation tools.
The Paint workflow is for working solely within a 2D environment. You
can click the do not show again check box, so this window will not
appear every time you launch Alias. If you have chosen a workflow setting
and checked don’t show again, you can change the default workflow
by choosing the workflow you want from Preferences > Workflows.
Alias launches the application in the same workflow that was active when
you last exited the application.

During start-up, Alias may warn you about unusual conditions on your
system:
If you are already running Alias (or if Alias exited abnormally the last
time you ran it), the application asks you if you really want to start
another copy.
If you are sure Alias is not running, click Yes to continue loading.
