The File menu in the highlighted tab at the left end of the Ribbon is the fourth main workspace element. When you click on it, it replaces the entire program window with the "backstage view". It provides access to major functions requiring large, interactive dialogs with lots of information and configuration options. This is where you open existing projects, create new projects, publish and print your projects, save your projects with other names and in other formats and so on. The functions include:
•Open, Close, Save and Exit (normal file menu functions)
•Save As (save projects with different names and in a number of different formats, including extended formats like skins and style repositories)
•Program Options (global Help+Manual configuration options)
•New Project (create new Help+Manual projects, either empty or by importing existing data)
•Publish (output your projects to any of the supported formats)
•Import (import data into the current project)
•Version Control (options for integrating your project in a supported version control system)
•Print Manual (generated a printed manual from your project)
•Repository Manager (register style repositories created with Save As.. so that you can link them to your projects) |
