File Menu | |||||||||||
The file menu contains commands to work with files. This includes loading and saving tunes and Log files, and quitting Impromptu. The file menu has the following commands: OpenOpens the Impromptu Folder, from which users can select a Tunes Folder and within it a Tunes File. Other files or folders in the Impromptu Folder, such as special collections of student tunes, can also be selected. NewCreates a new Impromptu file for users to make and save their own tunes. To make new tuneblocks, see Improvise Melody and Improvise Rhythm. Open LogNot implemented in this version. New LogNot implemented in this version. SaveSaves the current Impromptu file with settings. However, all files listed in the Impromptu Catalog are internal to Impromptu, so when saving Impromptu catalog tunes, you will be saving a copy of the tune. Save AsAllows users to save the current project with a new name in an individual Impromptu file. An appropriate folder in the user Catalog ImpromptuTunes folder is selected automatically to save the file. If you would like your saved tune to show up in the User Catalog, save your tune there. If you would like to save tunes somewhere else, you can create a new folder and/or save a file to a floppy or other storage disk. Revert Tune FileReloads the most recently saved version of the current tune file. This effectively undoes all changes made to the file since the last save or beginning of session (whichever is more recent.) Save MIDI FileAllows users to save the current music as a MIDI file. A MIDI file can be exported to a MIDI-compatible music printing program or to a MIDI music sequencer program. ExitExits Impromptu. Exit will prompt you to save your work before you exit the program if you haven't already done so. |
