Closing an Editor
As described in the Getting Started book, when closing an editor, you can choose
between keeping the changes you made, and cancelling (undoing) all changes.
To close the editor and keep the changes:
• Press [Return].
or
• Close the edit window by clicking on its close box.
or
• Press [Control]-[W] on the computer keyboard.
If you are editing a Ghost Part (described on page 45), and close the editor as above
(keeping the changes), a dialog box will ask if you want to convert the Ghost Part to
a real Part. If you answer Yes, the changes will only appear in this new Part. If you
answer No, the Ghost Part will remain a Ghost Part, and the changes will appear in
the real Part the Ghost Part was made from as well as in all other Ghost Parts made
from the same real Part.
To close the editor and cancel the changes:
• Press [Esc] on the computer keyboard.
All changes you have made since you opened the editor, will be undone.
● If “Fewer Alerts” in the Preference dialog (on the File menu) is unchecked, a
dialog box appears, asking you if you really want to discard your changes.
● If you have entered Events outside the range of the edited Part(s), a dialog
with the text “Keep Appended Events?” will appear when you close the Editor.
Clicking “Yes” will extend the Part to make room for the new Events while
clicking “No” will discard any Events outside the Part.
● If you enter the Edit window while recording, stop the recording while in the
editor and then Cancel, the whole recording is deleted.
