This section introduces how to open a Mech-Vision project.

Open an Existing Project

There are three ways to open an existing project:

  • Click Open project on the Welcome interface, and select the project folder in the pop-up window. You do NOT need to open the folder and select the VIS file.

  • Click File  Open Project (Shortcut Ctrl + O) in the menu bar of the main interface, and select the project folder in the pop-up window.

  • Double-click the VIS file in the project folder to open Mech-Vision and autoload the project.

Open a Recently Opened Project

There are two ways to open a recently opened project:

  • Click Project on the Solution/Project button in the Welcome interface, and double-click the project you want to open.

  • Click File  Open Recent… in the menu bar of the main interface, and then select the project in the context menu to open.

  • If you are using Mech-Vision 1.4.0 or later versions to open a project created in the previous versions, the original JSON project file will be saved as a VIS file, and the backup file will be saved as a BAK file.

  • You can click File  Save Project To JSON in the menu bar to save the project as a JSON file.
