Retrieving Archive Files

How can I retrieve archive files?

Answer:

You can extract an archive file using the Project Manager menu

Archive Data → Extract Project from Archive, or
Archive Data → Extract Models.

The Windows dialog box "Open" appears for selecting the archive file. The archive format *.ZIP is preset. If you want to extract the projects or models of the older archive format *.ARR, select this archive format (Image 01).

After clicking the "Open" button, the content of the archive file is displayed (Image 02).

2 Extract Models from Archive

In the "Select Models to Extract" table, you can select the models to be retrieved. They can be extracted either with the original project settings or as a new project. In the "Place under Project" list, it is possible to define the integration into the Project Manager administration. To create a new project in the project manager, click the "Create New Project" button.
