File menu
The File Menu covers very big-picture things like creating a new file, saving to different formats, or even holding recent maps.
This creates a new map. If the current map has been edited without saving, Trizbort prompts the user before throwing away the old map.
This allows the user to search for a .trizbort file to open. Trizbort will ask if you wish to save any unsaved work before bringing up the Open File dialog. While you can open files with any extension, most will throw an error.
This allows the user to save a file under its current name. It reverts to "Save Map As" behavior if you have a new and untitled document.
This allows the user to save a file under a different name. If the map is untitled, it opens a file dialog for the user to save a file name.
This allows the user to save a PDF and/or Image format of their choice (JPEG, BMP, EMF, PNG) named like the current map file, except with a different extension. If the project is currently untitled, and the user does not save a file, smart save will fail. SmartSave settings can be adjusted in the Tools menu.
This opens a large submenu that lets the user specify which format to save the current map to. This does not require the map to have a name, and it does not save the current file, if there is one.
The user can export to PDF.
The user can export to a choice of PNG, EMF, BMP or JPEG. This is independent of any SmartSave settings.
This is useful for a player who wants to build a game from scratch but does not want to type in the code needed to build a basic game.
The user can export to Inform 7.
The user can export to Inform 6.
The user can export to TADS.
The user can export to ZIL.
Sometimes the user may not need to create a new file. They may just be interested in how one room works, or how to code in a language for one-way doors. Or they may already have a project with many items defined.
The code copied to the clipboard should be identical to that saved to a file.
This copies Inform 7 code to the clipboard.
This copies Inform 6 code to the clipboard.
This copies TADS code to the clipboard.
This copies ZIL code to the clipboard.
This lists the five most recent .trizbort files read in. Trizbort files that have been moved or deleted will not be shown. Trizbort has no memory beyond these, so if you read in six files, and you then erase one of them, Trizbort will only recall four.
Exits trizbort, with a prompt to save any unsaved work.
