As you modify the workspace, you should periodically save your changes to permanent storage. To save the workspace, select the Save Workspace item in the File menu. When you save the workspace, Design Pad G4 will only record any changes made to the workspace itself; it will not save any modifications you may have made to other documents (hardware interface files, schema files, HMI files, etc.).
Design Pad G4 automatically creates a back-up copy of a workspace document before it saves any changes. For example, when you save changes to the workspace named workspace.dpw, Design Pad G4 first makes a copy of the existing file (and saves the copy as workspace.bwk) before overwriting workspace.dpw with the changes that you made to it. This feature could be useful if you have saved changes to a workspace but later decide you want to discard those changes and revert to the back-up version. To disable the auto-backup feature, see section 14.1.2.
