Adding Files to a Project

Add File

Add File is the most general-purpose way to add a file to a project and is what you usually use. To use Add File to add a layout window to a project, do the following:

1. Save your layout by choosing Save from the File menu. Name the file.

2. Save the layout in the same folder as your project (see FIGURE A.9).

FIGURE A.9 : Saving a layout.


3. Choose Add File from the Project menu.

4. Select the file you just saved in the Add File dialog (see FIGURE A.10).

Your file is now part of the project, as you can see in the project window in FIGURE A.11.

Note:By convention, layout files end with ".t". One way to remember this is that the word layout ends in "t".
