Press the Add Content button and select New > Home.

A new layer is added called ‘Home’, which is also a pinned layer.

Image Added

Press the left most icon on the immersive toolbar. This looks like the outline of a house with the igloo logo inside the house.

This is the Home icon and it returns the user back to the homescreen. In fact, the button causes all un-pinned layers to be removed from the layer list and the Home layer is moved to the top of the layer list.

...

This will draw the word ‘text’ in the top left corner of the Home layer. Click on the Component tab and change the Text field to say ‘Welcome to ICE’. Use the X and Y position sliders to move the text into the upper centre of the Home layer.

...

Session Grids

Return to the Layout tab and press the ‘+' button. Select Grid from the popup menu. On the Component tab, set the name to be SessionGrid and set the title to be 'Sessions’. Use the position sliders and width, height sliders so that the grid appears to the left of the Welcome text.

...

Scroll to the bottom of the Component tab and press the ‘+' button. This will display the Load Content dialog. Select the '2 WebViews’ session.

...

The session icon is now displayed in the SessionGrid on the Home layer.

...

This automatically loads the 2 WebViews session into the layer list and hides the Home layer. To go back to the Home layer, press the Home icon on the immersive toolbar.
