File Menu
The File menu contains commands that relate to a LogTag® file. When clicking on File (or pressing ALT-F on the keyboard), a menu similar to the one on the right appears.

File menu
The following table outlines the commands you can select along with a brief explanation. Some commands do not appear if no file is open.
Command | Explanation |
---|---|
Open... |
This will display the Open file dialogue, which will allow you to open files that were previously saved with any version of LogTag® Analyzer, such as *.ltd, *.ltdx or *.sltd files and multichart files such as *.multi or *.multix. Initially, the folder defined in Edit - Options - File and Folder Settings will be displayed. When you open a file after you browsed to a different location, LogTag® Analyzer will remember this location for the next time you wish to open a file. If a Multi Chart file is selected, the LogTag® Analyzer software will automatically show the opened file as a new Multi-Chart (see Multi-Charts (Combining Charts into a Single View)). |
Save |
This will save any changes you have made to the LogTag® file (or Multi Chart configuration) to your disk drive. |
Save As... |
This will display the Save As file dialog, which will allow you to save a copy of the file currently being displayed in the same or a different folder with the same or a different file name. |
Close |
This will close the currently active file. You may be asked to confirm if you wish to save any changes, such as annotations or zoom settings. If no files are currently open this command will not be visible. |
Upload |
This will send an email with the currently active file attached to a list of recipients or upload the file to a pre-determined FTP site, as detailed in Sharing recorded data with others. |
Print... |
This will open a window allowing you to print the currently active window to a printer. This command is further explained in the section Printing the results. |
Print All... |
This will open a window allowing you to print all currently open windows to a printer. This command is further explained in the section Printing the results. |
Print Preview |
This will change the display mode of the software to show you a copy of how a printout of the currently selected file and window would look like. In "Print Preview" mode you will not be able to zoom in or out of a chart. Click to exit the "Print Preview" mode and return to normal display mode. |
This will open a window allowing you to view and adjust one or more of your page settings, like printer margins and page orientation. |
|
Send... |
This will help you send, by email, the currently open and selected LogTag® file to another user without the need to exit to your email software or to deal with file attachments. This command is explained in further detail in the sectionSending a file by email directly from LogTag® Analyzer. |
Properties... |
This will open a window that will display the information about the file that is being displayed and currently selected. This same window and information will be displayed if you view the properties of the file from Microsoft Windows Explorer. |
Digital Signature... |
This will open a window to display a list of digital signatures that have been included with the file. It also allows you to add and print this list of digital signatures. Further explanations can be found in the section about "Digital signatures . |
Select Recent File |
This sub-menu, when clicked, shows a list of the most recent files you have viewed. To re-open one of these files, simply click on the entry (name of the file). The number of files included in this list can be adjusted in Edit - Options - File and Folder Settings. |
Exit |
This command will exit the LogTag® Analyzer software. Any files currently open will be closed automatically. If a user is currently logged on to the User Server, the user will be automatically logged off. |
