File Menu

---

The File menu has the following options.

• New Project... This option will prompt the user for the name of a new project to create, and the project's main directory. The main directory can be anywhere the user chooses. A Browse... button is available to help the user choose the location. If needed, the project's main directory will be created at the specified place. Once the main directory is specified, Simplicity Professional will then create a set of directories for the new project. If a project was previously open, the user will be given the option of saving any changes before it is closed.
• Open Project... This option will prompt the user to select one of the projects that has previously been created. The user also has the option of browsing for projects that are not listed, creating a new project, or removing a project from the list. (Note that removing a project does not delete any files. It only removes it from the active project list.) Projects are listed by default in the order that they were last opened, but they may also be sorted alphabetically.
• Save Project This option will save any changes to the current project.
• Close Project This option will close the current project. The user will be given the option of saving any changes before it is closed.
• Program Settings... This option will launch the Program Settings Dialog (page 57) which allows the user to modify many aspects of how Simplicity Professional operates. All changes are applied after the user presses the Ok button and affect all projects.
• License... This option will bring up a license information window. The window will display the type of license which is currently active and, if appropriate, the name and company of the user. The default is a "Tryout" license. The window will display a text area where the user may enter a new license key if the "Enter License Information" button is pressed.
• Show Console/Hide Console These options will make visible or hide the Java Input/Output Console.
• Exit This option will exit from Simplicity Professional. If a project was previously open, the user will be given the option of saving any changes before it is closed.
