- 8.3 SAVE DRAWING
-
-
- The SAVE DRAWING command is used to save the current drawing to disk. The
- command does not exit from the drawing as in CLOSE DRAWING, but the drawing
- remains active for further modification.
-
- The current drawing will be saved to disk under the name in which it was
- originally opened. The drawing can be saved under a different name using the
- NAME modifier. If the destination filename for the drawing already exists, a
- requester will appear asking for confirmation for the last saved version of
- the drawing to be overwritten.
-
-
- MODIFIERS
-
- NAME Can be used to specify an alternative filename used to save
- the current drawing. The filename should be in standard
- AmigaDos format consisting of no more than 80 characters.
-
- NOGRAPHICS The NOGRAPHICS modifier can be used to save the current
- drawing without any graphics information, only the drawing
- database is saved.
-
- Saving a drawing without graphics data can reduce the size of
- the destination file by up to 75%. When a drawing is saved
- using NOGRAPHICS and later recalled with the OPEN DRAWING
- command, the graphics data is rebuilt from the drawing
- database.
