Choose Your Workflow

Altoura Frontline on HoloLens offers two main workflows: New to procedures? See Procedures, Tasks & Steps for how they are structured, and How Content Flows for how procedures get onto your device.

The Global Side Menu

The Global Side Menu is the vertical navigation panel beside the main workspace. It is visible only when you are not inside a procedure and not in a Remote Expert session. It contains three buttons:

​

Floating Side Menu (Palm Access)

You can also open the same menu anywhere, without looking toward the fixed panel:

1. Raise either hand.
2. Ensure the palm is facing toward you.

When the gesture is detected, the side menu appears anchored to your palm, with the same Procedures, Remote Expert, and Profile options. All options behave identically to their static counterparts.
