Where is Save As?

Dear colleagues,

There are Save and Save Target As under File in a Studio project.  I actually want to use the Save As function so that I can give the updated files a different name and save them in a different location.  Is this possible?  Again, this is a Studio project that contains several files.  I only need to send the client the files that had changes/updates.

Thank you.

  • Hi Chun-yi,

    I guess the most important point here is that Studio doesn't work with a closed database.  So you can get at these anytime you like in Windows Explorer by going to your Project Folder and just take a copy to send your client.

    But if you really want to do this from Studio go to File -> Advanced Save and you'll find a few additional save options in there, inclding the one you want.

  • Following Pauls advice use "Save copy as..." - does exactly what you need. More even - when you save the copy, the original file remains open in Studio, so you can use this function to document changes - the saved copy does contain the changes, which are then accepted in the final file. We use this feature since I know it to document our EN 15038 process.

  • I didn't see Advanced Save until you pointed it out. That's the feature I was looking for. In Studio 2011, different save options are listed under File, whereas in Studio 2014, the less used save option is put in Advanced Save. I guess this makes sense, since I have been using Studio 2014 for almost two years and I looked for this option today:)
