Brings up a new, blank TinkerPlots document.
|
Open
|
Opens an existing TinkerPlots document.
|
Open Sample Document...
|
Opens Data and Demos folder containing pre-built TinkerPlots data sets.
|
Close
|
Closes the current document. This is the same as clicking the close box on the window. If the document has not been saved, TinkerPlots prompts you to save it.
|
Save
|
Saves the document. If it has been saved before, TinkerPlots updates the file to the current state. If the document hasn't been saved before, TinkerPlots asks you to give it a name and specify where to save it.
|
Save As
|
Saves the document, but allows you to give it a new name and specify where to save it (thus preserving the previously saved file).
|
Import From File...
|
Imports data from a text file. You enter the name of the file in the dialog box that appears.
|
Import From URL...
|
Imports data from the Internet. You enter the URL, and TinkerPlots imports the data.
|
Reimport from URL
|
For a collection imported from a URL, goes to that location and reimports, thus updating the collection.
|
Export Collection...
|
Exports data from the selected stack of data cards to a tab-delimited text file
|
Revert Collection...
|
Restores the data in the selected stack of data cards to how they were when you last saved. If you've changed one or more data values, this is a quick way to undo these changes. This does not delete or change plots or other objects you may have added.
|
