To Save and Close a Project File (Visual LISP IDE)

After a project is changed or opened, it can be saved or closed from Visual LISP.

Note: The Visual LISP IDE is available on Windows only.

Save a project file with a new name

  1. In Visual LISP, in the Project window, right-click and click Save Project As.
  2. In the Save Project As dialog box, specify a new name and location for the project. Click Save.

    The new project is not automatically opened, you must close the old project and then open the newly saved project if you want to work with it.

Close a project file

Do one of the following:

Closing a project file only closes the .prj file; any AutoLISP source files that are open in the Visual LISP editor windows remain open.

Note: Closing the Project window by clicking the Close button does not close the project itself. The project remains open; you can reopen a Project window by clicking the project’s name from the Project menu.
