Loading and Saving Prototype Libraries
To load a prototype library:
1. Choose Open from the File menu.
2. Select Prototype libraries (*.ipl) in the box for file type.
3. Browse to find the name of the library file you want to load.
Once the library is loaded, it is added as a new palette in the Prototypes palette of the Palettes panel.
You do not need to save a prototype library each time you create or edit a prototype. A prototype library is saved automatically as necessary while you edit your prototypes.
To change the name of the current prototype library (that is, the library name that is displayed in the visible page of the Prototypes Palette):
1. Use the command Save Prototype Library As... from the File menu.
2. Select the new directory and name of the prototype library file (with a .ipl extension).
The prototype library name changes accordingly and all the prototypes of the library are saved in the new directory.
You can close a prototype library that you no longer need by choosing Close Prototype Library from the File menu. This command removes the library currently displayed in the Prototypes palette.
Note: The prototypes contained in the library are not actually deleted in memory; they can still be referenced in panels or in other prototypes.
