MechDesigner Reference & User Interface > 1: Menu bar and General Toolbars > File > File

Save your model to your hard-drive.

	File menu > Save
	File toolbar > Save
If the model does not have a file-name, the Save as dialog opens.

Keyboard Shortcut:

CTRL+S

File > Save

We save two files:

•CXL - for the MechDesigner model

•MTD - for the MotionDesigner motions

Note:

Auto-save - if enabled (see below) - starts only when the model has a file-name.

MotionDesigner.

Although we save your motions when you save the MechDesigner model, you can also save your motions to a different file.

See: MotionDesigner > File toolbar > Save Active Motion, Save all Motions, or Save as.
