Save and close drawings
Save a drawing
Tekla Structures automatically saves drawings at set intervals. You can also save your drawing when ever you want to.
-
To save a drawing, in the open drawing, go to the File menu and click Save drawing.
Both the drawing *.dg and the model *.db1 and *.db2 are saved. The drawings are saved in the \drawings folder under the model folder.
A snapshot is by default created when you open and save a drawing. The snapshot represents the situation when the drawing was last saved. For more information, see Snapshots in drawings.
For more information about autosave and the autosave interval, see Autosave drawings.
Close drawings
You can only have one drawing open at a time. You always have to close an open drawing before you can open another one.
