ENVI-met Knowledge Base

Knowledge Base Index

The Knowledge Base aims to explain some of the ENVI-met features and aspects in more detail. 

You can start browsing here, but you will also find cross-links to the connected Knowledge Base items in the different topics concerned. Also, occasionally ENVI-met will suggest you to have a look at some of the items.

If you are frustrated from "Floating point errors" or similar, please read KB 13 first!
