# Setting up your first interface

Welcome to Wise! Wise lets you create multiple types of action bar interfaces. This guide will help you create your first one.

## Opening the Options Panel
Type `/wise` in your chat window, or click the Wise minimap button to open the Options Panel.

## Creating an Interface
1. In the Options Panel, find the input box at the top left to name your new interface.
2. Select the type of layout you want from the dropdown (Circle, Box, Line, List, Button).
3. Click the **"+"** button to create it.
4. Your new interface will appear in the list on the left. Click it to open its configuration.

## Adding Actions to Slots
Once you've created an interface, you'll see a list of numbered slots.
1. Click the **Action** button on a slot to open the Action Picker.
2. The Action Picker lets you choose what the button will do. You can search for Spells, Items, Macros, Equipment Sets, Mounts, and more.
3. Select an action. The button will update.

## Interface Types
- **Circle**: A classic ring layout.
- **Box**: A grid of rows and columns (like a standard action bar).
- **Line**: A single row or column.
- **List**: A vertical list with labels.
- **Button**: A single standalone button.

## Properties and Settings
In the Options Panel, with your interface selected:
- **Properties Tab**: This is where you add actions to slots and manage multiple states (see [Context-Sensitive Slots](../Advanced/States.md)).
- **Settings Tab**: Here you can customize the appearance of the interface (Icon Size, Padding, Columns, Radius, etc.) and configure visibility rules (see [Visibility Settings](Visibility.md)).

## Assigning Keybinds
If your interface only has one button (or if you just want to trigger a ring or list to appear under your mouse), you can set a **Global Keybind** in the Settings tab.

For individual buttons within an interface:
1. Click the **Keybind** button next to a slot in the Properties tab.
2. Press the key you want to bind to that slot.
