1. When you invoke File-Save option, InRoads will take the
user to the project directory where all InRoads files are
stored.

3. The User needs to save during and at the end of
working session.
4. It saves data in different files and not in one file as in
Geopak *.gpk
5. It saves project defaults in file with extension *.rwk

7. Alignment Data in *.alg
8. Cross Section Templates in *.tml
9. Roadway Library in *.rwl

Please remember
1. InRoads Plots Lines and Text using level
symbology as defined in preferences.
2. If User changes any setting in the preference
file and re-plots it, the previous plotted data
will be replaced.
3. For example, if alignment stations are plotted
with certain text height in dgn file and if text
size is changed in preference file, InRoads will
replace the already plotted data.
4. Data can be plotted on different scales using
scale factor
