4.1 Open

Shortcut Key: CNTL+O

This command will open the file dialog box so that you may pick a DWG or DXF file to view.

4.2 Save

Shortcut Key: CNTL+S

This command performs a quick save. The currently open file will be saved to the disk with the same name, type and drawing version as the file that was opened. It is really not that useful for a viewing program but will be necessary if this program is ever extended.

This command will open the file dialog box to save the drawing being viewed. The dialog will allow you to set the path to save. The Advanced button will open up a a side bar where you may elect to change the format of the file (DWG, DXF, BMP, XPM). You may also select the AutoCad version to save to and the number of digits of precision to save for DXF saves.

4.4 Print

Shortcut Key: CNTL+P

This command will open the print dialog box to print. Refer to section 5 for further information.
