Saving Layouts

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

A layout must be saved when to retain any changes. A layout remains local and will only be available during the current session unless it is saved. When a layout is successfully saved, it displays in the Resource Tree under Layouts and under a specific user name. Saved layouts that were open when a session closed will automatically open the next time a user logs in.

note Note: Saving a layout saves camera playback state, speed, position, and rotation in all items.

To save a layout

Right-click on the tab name (in the Navigation Panel) or on the viewing grid.

In the context menu that opens, select Save Current Layout (shortcut Ctrl+S) to save the current layout name (as shown in the tab header caption).

Open the context menu on the viewing grid (on empty space) and select Save Current Layout As (shortcut Ctrl+Alt+S). layout will be saved as specified by user:

Find the desired layout in Resource Tree, invoke the context menu and select Save Layout.

! IMPORTANT: Saved layout is activated immediately (if running on multi-machines, all saved changes to layout will reflect on all machines identically). Refer to “Opening and Closing Saved Layouts” for more information.
