To open a new project, there’s many practices that we can do. E.g: if we move the file of a project through the mouse to inside of G-Electrical, on the tabs, we may open a project.
Then we will see two ways to open a project. You can enjoy to improve the way that you open your projects, according you build your projects.

Open a project through Ribbon…

1. Open Draftsight and thorough G-Electrical interface, on the GE Start tab, click on Open...

A window will open to search the document’s project through the files of your computer.

⚠️WARNING: The filter of the window will only display files on DWG’s format, this is a default configuration in DraftSight.

2. Find and select the file of the project in your computer.

3. Click to Open.

Open a project by menu…

  1. With Draftsight opened, click on the upper left DS icon of the interface.

    Leave your mouse over the option open. Notice, there’s a list with the documents opened recently. You can open a project for there;

  2. Click on the Open... button;

    As the previous step, a window will be opened to select the project’s file.

  3. Find the project’s file on the window opened and select it;

  4. Click to Open.

With the project opened, you can edit, change and come back to work again, save and open every time you want.
