Save As

File menu > Save As

Save As saves the current scene, .max or .chr, under a different file name.

A .chr file is a character file saved with Character menu > Save Character. For more information on the .chr file format, see Character Assembly and Save Character.

Note: The software allows you to number saved files incrementally and to make automatic backup files at specified time intervals. The options to set up Increment on Save and Backup on Save are in the Files panel of the Preference Settings dialog.

Procedure

To save a file to a different name:

Choose File > Save As.
Do one of the following:
- Enter a name in the File Name field.
- Click the Increment button.

Interface

The Save File As dialog has standard Windows file save controls. At the right, the Thumbnail area shows a preview of the scene whose file name is highlighted in the list on the left.

Clicking the plus button appends a sequence number to the file name you entered, or increments the sequence number if the name already has one, and then saves the file to that name.

For example, if you have highlighted a file named test00.max, clicking the plus button changes the name to test01.max and then saves test01.max.
