II-3 Menu reference to the engineering tool
II-3.1 Menu ‘File’
This menu item permits standard data
handling functions which are also known
from other Windows programs (r see
Fig.: 39). Via this menu, e.g. finishing the
program is possible.
New
Select command “New...” in the file menu, if you want to open an empty engineering without title. Working width /
height and scroll bars are set to standard values. The existing engineering is removed from the working memory.
Open
This function can be used for reading in already created
engineerings. After selection of this command, a standard
dialogue box (r Fig.: 40) in which the relevant drive as
well as the required path and file name are selected is
displayed.
Via drop-down list “File format”, adjustment which kinds
of files are displayed in the file list is possible.
After confirmation with OK, the file is loaded.
This command can be used for loading a stored enginee-
ring for editing. If write-protected is selected, a new name is always required when saving (Save as).
Save
This function can be used for saving an engineering created by you as a file. Storage is with the file name used when
reading in. If no name exists (new Engineering), select the required path, enter a valid name (with omission of the file
extenstion, standard extension .EDG is used automatically) and acknowledge with OK. If there is already a file with the
same name, a message is displayed. When saving this file repeatedly during an operation, re-selection of this menu
item is sufficient, whereby the name need not be entered repeatedly.
Save as
This function permits saving of an already loaded project under a different name. For this, enter a new name into the
field provided for this purpose. If the file extension is omitted, the file is saved automatically with extension .EDG.
