If you CLOSE PL with a model in Application
mode and with the "Hide Load/Save Menu Items" option ON (the default is OFF),
then any changes to the model will not be saved - even if you use an editor
key.


While editing a model I suggest keeping this option off and only activating
it when shipping to a client.


Heres a summary table:

EXE/KEY/MODE Can Save By Menu May Save On
Close
----------------------------------------------------------
Full/Edit Key/Editing YES YES *3
Full/Edit Key/Application *1 *2 *3
Full/Run Key/Application *1 *2 *3
Interdyne Build/ NO NO
Stand Alone Application/ NO NO
Demo EXE (any mode) NO NO


  • 1 Only if the load/save menus have not been disabled by turning on
    the "Hide Load/Save Menu Items" option.


  • 2 Planimate will offer to save any changes unless the "Hide Load/Save
    Menu" option is on in which case changes are not normally saved.


  • 3 IF the model uses "Save And Close" or the /SAVEONEXIT command line
    option is used, the model will be saved.
