Depending on whether you are working on a model or a project, use this menu option to save the model as a Carveco Model (.art) file or the project as a Carveco Project (.3dp) file.

This option overwrites any previously saved version of the model or project. To save the model or project with a different filename or in a different folder, select File > Save As.
      The Save  button on the File toolbar is a shortcut for this menu option and the keyboard shortcut is Ctrl+S.
