Option

Description

Autosave every ? minutes

Saves all modified circuits to a separate disk file every specified interval of minutes. The file name is the same as the circuit file but with extension '.ci~'. The circuit's modified state does not change as a consequence of an autosave operation.

Create backup files

Changes the extension of the original circuit file to '.~ci' each time the circuit is saved. This option does not apply to autosave operations.

Save side bar state

Records the current view state (visible or hidden) of the main window side bar, so it can be redisplayed in the same state next time ATPDraw is started.

Save status bar state

Records the current view state (visible or hidden) of the main window status bar, so it can be redisplayed in the same state next time ATPDraw is started.
