# Open the Editor

{% hint style="success" %}
To use Pesipiuma you need source data for the garment pieces. In v3 this usually comes from a DXF file with optional RUL grading data, or from Excel files generated by a supported CAD importer.

## Open the editor from the dashboard

1. Open the Dashboard.
2. Click the project card to open it.
3. Alternatively, open the card options menu and select **Open Editor**.

The editor opens in the same application window and shows the controls available for your workspace role.

{% hint style="info" %}
Users with read-only access can open the editor to inspect saved project data and open reports from that data, but they do not have permission to import, edit, or recalculate the project.
{% endhint %}
