Figure 3-53, The FM Composer opening Screen
File Commands The File command has 4 command lines that control waveform
files. Also use this command to exit the FM composer program.
Description of the various commands under File is given below.
New Waveform
The New Waveform command will remove the waveform from the
screen. If you made changes to the waveform area and use this
command, you should save your work before clearing the screen.
The New Waveform command is destructive to the displayed
waveform.
Open Waveform…
The Open Waveform… command will let you browse your disk for
previously saved waveform files and load these waveforms to the
waveform area. This command is also very useful for converting
waveform files to format that is acceptable by the Wave Composer.
Save Waveform
The Save Waveform command will store your active waveform in
your 5251 directory, as a binary file with a *.wvf extension. If this is
the first time you save your waveform, the Save Waveform As…
command will be invoked automatically, letting you select name,
location and format for your waveform file.
