Saving Layouts
To retain any changes made to Layout, User must save it.
Note: current playback position and selection is saved for Layout as well. After DW Spectrum is closed,
all saved layouts that were opened in Tabs prior to closing, will be restored.
Layout should always be saved in case of any changes. If any changes are made, an asterisk will appear in
the corresponding Tab and in Resource Tree:
To save Layout:
Open Context Menu on Scene (on empty space) and select Save Current Layout (or press Ctrl + S).
Layout will be saved to the previously assigned file name (the Tab’s caption).
Open Context Menu on Scene (on empty space) and select Save Current Layout As (or press Ctrl + Alt +
S). Layout will be saved as specified by User:
Find the desired Layout in Resource Tree, invoke for 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.
