"File" Menu
File menu commands enable you to execute the basic operations with files:
Shortcut keys associated with menu items depend on the currently active keyboard layout.
New
The New command represents the standard function for opening a new file. This new file has a temporary name in the form of "UntitledN", where "N" is a unique number.
Open... F3
The Open command opens the new Editor with the file chosen using the standard dialog box.
Close Alt+F3
The file in the Editor will be compared with a corresponding file on the disk. If any differences exist, DA-C gives you the possibility to save the file.
Save Ctrl+S
The Save command enables you to save the file in the currently active window to the disk. If the file is new, with a temporary name, this command allows the possibility of renaming the file.
Save As...
Opens the standard Save As dialog box for entering a new name of the file where the complete contents of the active window will be saved. The active window can be any one of the DA-C interface windows: the active pane of the Message Logs, the active window or the active pane of the Editor, the active Graph, Flowchart or Source Code Metrics window (WMF Format).
Save All F4
The Save All command enables you to save all Editor Files, Browser or Source Code Metrics Reports or Message Logs.
Format...
The Format command formats the file chosen using the standard Open dialog box. Before the formatting begins, a backup file is created, and when it is finished the Editor with the formatted file is opened.
