====== "Save As" menu option ======

----

  * {{ :en:symmetry:save_as_layout.png?700|}}When choosing "**Save as**" to store a file on your computer or local network, you will be able to save the file under a new name, even if you opened and modified an already existing job file. You can also re-enter the original name, or click on an already existing file name in the file list. In that case, your computer will warn you that the file name already exists and ask you if you want to overwrite it.\\ \\ {{:en:symmetry:confirm_save_as.png?400|}}

  * The "**Save as**" option also allows you to access the comments field. As a consequence, you can use the "Save as" function to save an already job file under its original name, but adding comments or modifying existing comments.

  * For all other details on the different parts of the **Save Layout** window, please refer to the comments on the **[[option_save|Save]]** menu option.

==== Notes ====

  * The "**Save**" and "**Save as**" options are very similar to the "**[[option_save_project_as|Save Project As]]**" option. With **Save Project As**, all files that are in the .job file are copied to one directory. This way, when Symmetry will open a job file later on, it doesn't have to "find" these files.\\ Imagine you send a .job file to another PC. If that .job contains a clipart or font that is only on your original PC, then the other PC will not be able to open and include it. But, if you save the project, you will send all the files that are used in the .job file to the new PC and it will be able to open it to execute the job.
