Introduction
The File menu allows you to manage documents and apps, for example, to create a new app or save changes:
Menu Items Overview
The File menu items are described in the table below:
| Menu Item | Description | Shortcut Key |
|---|---|---|
| New Document | Creates a new document within the app currently open. You can choose the name, location, and type of document. For more information on types of documents, see Modules. | Ctrl + N |
| New App | Creates a new single-developer app. A single-developer app is simply a file (with the extension .mpr) that is stored in the local file system. For more information, see New App. | Ctrl + Shift + N |
| Open App | Opens an existing single-developer app (.mpr) or app package (.mpk). See New App above for information on single-developer apps. For more information, see Open App. | Ctrl + Shift + O |
| Recent Apps | Shows a list of recently opened apps for quick opening. | |
| Save | Saves the changes in the currently active document tab. | Ctrl + S |
| Save All | Saves the changes in all documents that are open. | Ctrl + Shift + S |
| Close | Closes the current document. You will be asked to save or discard changes when needed. | Ctrl + W |
| Close All | Closes all document tabs. You will be asked to save or discard changes when needed. | Ctrl + Shift + W |
| Close App | Closes the currently open App and returns to the home page. | |
| Export as Image | Exports the current document as an image in the .png format. The following document types can be exported as images: domain models, workflows, microflows, nanoflows, rules, and document templates. | |
| Upgrade app to split MPR format (v2) | Converts the file storage format of the current branch. The MPRv2 storage format results in reduced repository growth to ensure good performance over time. | |
| Export App Package | Exports the current app to a package (.mpk) file. This is useful for example when you want to give someone the entire app, or when you need to provide a test app when submitting a ticket. For more information, see Export App Package. | |
| Import App Package | Imports a package that was created with the Export App Package menu item. For more information, see Import App Package. | |
