Launching on Linux

To launch the application on Linux, do one of the following:

Double-click the required icon on the Desktop.

Open the Hiero application directory (by default, /usr/local/Hiero12.0v7) and double-click the required icon.

Using a terminal, navigate to the Hiero application directory and enter:

./Hiero12.0 --hiero to launch Hiero.

./Hiero12.0 --player to launch HieroPlayer.

If you already have a valid license, the graphical interface appears. If you don't have a license or haven't installed one yet, proceed to Licensing on Linux.

Hiero Analytics

In an effort to further improve quality and reliability, we ask you to allow us to collect usage statistics from the machines on which you license license Hiero and HieroPlayer. This usage information also assists our Support team to resolve issues more quickly.

Note:  The port number used to communicate with Foundry is 443, the same one used for uploading crash reports.

The first time you start an application, and on every major release, a dialog displays asking for permission for us to collect this information. You can enable or disable collection at any time in the Preferences under Behaviors > Startup.

Note:  This information is only collected for interactive sessions. Running applications in terminal mode or under render licenses does not upload data to Foundry.

The following list shows the information we'll collect, if you give us permission to do so:

Unique session ID

Anonymous user key

Application version string

Application name

Session start time (GMT)

Session duration (in seconds)
