How to load an existing file

DESUMA supports the UMDES file format (.fsm) as well as an .xml format which stores positional information. You simply open an existing file in .fsm format and it will automatically be displayed in a DESUMA workspace.

To open an existing .fsm or .xml file:

  1. Go to File menu and select Open.
  2. A pop-up window (similar to the window shown below) will appear allowing the selection of an .fsm file from the current working directory.
  3. Select a file.
  4. Click on the "Open" button in the dialogue box.
