“Save” Tab
Auto save every. When set, the current document will be
automatically saved according to the value of the
frequency parameter. Saving the model occurs only
when switching from one command to another, and is
not done while working within the same command, in
order to preserve the model data integrity.
Create Backup copies. This flag sets the mode of
creating backups on saving document files. The
parameter can take the following values:
None – no backup.
On first save – A “.BAK” file is created on the first save of a
document after opening it for editing.
On every save – The previous saved file version becomes the backup
copy on every document save.
Historical – backups are created on each save with different extensions, as “.B01”, “.B02”, etc.
“Colors” Tab
This tab defines the colors used for drawing 2D and 3D
model elements on the screen, as well as the application
window colors.
The “Common” group of colors defines the default
colors of various elements of the 2D document window.
It also includes such common parameters as the
background color of the application windows and the
frame color of the active pane in the case the document
window is split. These settings do not affect the
documents whose respective colors are explicitly defined
by the command “Customize| Status…”.
Additional groups, such as “3D”, “3D Elements
Highlighting”, “3D Draggers and Decorations”, are
specific to the 3D version of the system, and define
various colors of the 3D scene visualization.
The entered settings can be saved into an external file
with the extension “*.tfc” for future reuse. This can
be done using the [Save…] button. To load color
settings from an external file, use the [Load…] button.
