Close project

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

In most cases there is no need to specifically close a project.

 

If you have opened a project and you open another one, the first one will be automatically closed. If you have opened a project and exit the software entirely, the open project will also be closed automatically.

 

In other words, you normally do not have to worry about closing your projects.

 

In some rare  situations it nevertheless might be beneficial to actively close the project that is currently open. There are two options to do so.

 

The first option is to select the Close command in the File pull-down menu.
