3.2 The main menus and their commands
STVD’s menus provide a range of common commands for general activities such as
opening projects, or loading, editing and saving files, as well as access to build and debug
commands.
File menu
The File menu provides standard commands for managing workspace and text files,
including: New, Open, Close, Close All, Save, Save as, Save All, Print and Recent.
The New Workspace and Open Workspace commands are very important because before
you start creating projects, building or debugging your application, you must create or open
a workspace. For more information, refer to Loading and creating workspaces (.stw) on
page 76.
Edit menu
The Edit menu provides file editing and text search commands that are available whenever
an Editor window is open, in both the Build and Debug context. In addition, this menu
provides breakpoint commands, and access to the QuickWatch window, which you will use
in the Debug context.
This section provides a summary of available commands. For more information about
editing features and commands, refer to Editor windows on page 43. For more information
about using debug commands from the Editor windows, refer to Basic debugging features
on page 160.
