Opens an empty circuit window.

Open

Loads a project file into a new window. ATPDraw can read both circuit (cir) and circuit project files (acp). Prior to v5 the extension adp was used, but this is assigned to Microsoft Access and the file type is banned as attachments in many e-mail programs. When opening a project file, ATPDraw unpacks the file in memory.

Reload

The last 5 stored projetcs hare found here, with the most recent one on top.

Save

Save As

Saves the project in the active circuit window to a specified disk file (acp).

A project file follows the pkzip 2 standard and contains all the required circuit description (*.$$$ file) along with results files created in the LCC module. The older project file version (adp) also contained support files and data files now included directly in the circuit description.
