9 Managing and Sh aring Application Data in GUIDE
You can view the properties of any component by double-clicking it in the
Layout Editor to open the Property Inspector for it. You can modify either the
figure, the code, or both. Then you can save the G UI in your current folder
using File > Save As from G U ID E. This saves both the G U I and its code f ile.
If you save one of the GUIs in this way, you need to save the other one as well.

Note Do n o t save GUI files to the examples folder where you fo und them,
or you will overwrite the original files. If you want to s ave the G UI files,
use File > Save As from GU ID E, which saves both the GUI FIG-file and
the GUI code file.
Do not change the file name of either GUI when using Save As .Becausethe
changeme_main code calls the changeme_dial og function, modifying that file
name would m ake the GUI inoperable.
