Save Changes

The document can be an archived document or a document read into the working window using a file name. This function also saves any changes made in the document's archives data.

Save the changes made in the document by using the > Save function.

Model Document

When the document to be saved is a model, its drawing can also be saved if it is open in the drawing window. If a new document is created without naming a label, you can save it to the model archives by using this function.

Drawing Document

When the document to be saved is a drawing, the data of active layers, layers to be printed, layer groups and properties of the elements used in the drawing will be saved in the drawing file. When the drawing is opened next time, the layers will be activated and elements will be drawn according to this data.

Note:
  • Save the document by pressing Ctrl+S.
  • Edit the archives data of the document in the working window. On the tab, in the Documents group, click Data.

Saving Fails

For example, the model has been saved in the archives earlier with the Ex_Model label. The model is edited and saved again.

Saving proceeds as follows:

  • The model is saved in the user's work folder ./user/workfile.vxm
  • If the previous saving succeeded, the model is then saved in the archives with the name Ex_Model2
  • If the previous saving succeeded, the model is finally saved with the original name Ex_Model

If any saving phase fails, the file is not created in saving. You can look for the saved file from the previous saving phases. For example, check if the model file workfile.vxm can be found in the user's work folder.
