The basics

Starting a new project

From the top menu of the MODEL tool click on the New button.

A new Untitled project is created and the Select Data panel is opened.

The projection of the project can be changed via the button which refreshes the projection of the MODEL project to that currently selected inside QuantumGIS. The name of the project can be changed using the Save as button from the top menu of the MODEL tool.

Opening an existing project

From the top menu of the MODEL tool click on the Open button. A dialog window will appear from which a .model file may be selected.

Selecting a .model file and pressing Open will open the project. The Select Data panel is opened in this case too.

Saving a project

A MODEL project can be saved into the same file using the Save button from the top menu, or into a new file using the Save as button.
