Workspace (project) file (Feature 39)

The program now allows you to create a workspace file, called a Project file, that consists of one Concept mode file and any number of beam and column files. It allows you to save the project files and all its members as a group. The ability to manage the files within a project has been added to the Project Settings page.

(Note that those individual beam and column files that were previously referred to as “projects” are now referred to as member files, the word “member” meaning both a building member, and a member of a project.)

The ability to view any number of beam and column files at once is not limited to the workspace feature. Sizer also has the ability to have a number of disconnected files open. In either case, it has added the capability of being able to open, save, and close multiple files simultaneously. (The number of files is of course limited by computer memory constraints.)

The Project Settings page has been expanded to allow you to manage the files within a project. The four line description in that page now applies to all files within a project; the program has added a Member Description input in beam load view to distinguish between member files within the project.
