Profiles store drawing environment settings. You can create profiles for different users or projects, and you can share profiles by importing and exporting them as files. Profile information is typically set on the Files tab of the Options dialog box, stored in the system registry, and can be exported to a text file (an ARG file). Use the Profiles tab in the Options dialog box to create and save your drawing environment settings as a profile. Once you save a profile, you can export or import the ARG file to and from different computers. This is useful for copying, restoring, or standardizing project-oriented work environments over a network.

Hatch patterns of GstarCAD are saved in GstarCAD Professional\Patterns. You can directly paste the edited or copied hatch definitions into icad.pat files, or save one or more hatch patterns as independent *.pat files and put it under the "Patterns" catalog.

Please pay attention when you save a file as independent *.pat file, the name of the file should be the same as the hatch name defined in the file.


How to operate timely backup system when using GstarCAD?

In GstarCAD's interface Pull-down Menu: Tool>Option>Open and Save In "File Safety Precautions" choose "Automatic Save" and set the time interval such as 5 minutes. When choosing the file style if you choose "Single DWG File Save" system will automatically save file to be .SV$. In fact .SV$ files are standard DWG files. .SV$ files can be opened after changing the suffix to be DWG. But the save time is slow and not suit for the auto save with short time interval. If you choose "Quick Multiple Files Save", system will automatically save file to be .dwh, the speed is very fast and suit for timely backup requirement. Suggest users not to choose "Save a Preview Image" because it affects the save speed. After finishing the above setting, system will make quick auto backup according requirement

Does minecraft go on your hardrive?

If you are playing online, it will save the world saves to your hardrive, and if you are playing on the downloaded version, it would depend on where you saved the file. If you saved it to the hardrive (which is default) it will save the world files to the hardrive, obviously. If you saved it to a flash drive or removable storage, it will save the world files to that instead.
