Subject: Saving and viewing snapshots

You can save snapshots of a drawing to view later. A snapshot saves the current drawing in either *.emf, *.wmf, or *.sld format exactly as it appears on the screen. A snapshot is not a drawing file. You cannot edit or print the snapshot; you can only view it.

You can use snapshots in the following ways:

   Make presentations by showing snapshots of your drawings.

   Reference a snapshot of a drawing while working on a different drawing.

   Present a number of snapshots as a slide show by using scripts.

When you view a snapshot, it temporarily replaces the current drawing. When you refresh the display of the current drawing (by redrawing, panning, zooming, minimiz­ing, maximizing, or tiling), the snapshot image disappears, and you are returned to the current drawing.
