Local copy of a shared project

 

A local copy is a Dr.Explain project file with ".gui" file extension which is stored as the result of checkout of a shared project from Tiwri.com cloud service or Dr.Explain Collaboration Server.

If you uploaded an existing local project to collaboration server, the original source file became a local copy of the newly created shared project.

 

A local copy stores all cached data about associated shared project and allows Dr.Explain not to download all data from the server every time you start working with the project. A local copy stores connection settings and all your changes you haven't yet committed to server.

 

When you're working with a shared project someone shared to you, you should checkout it first. After that, save the local copy of this project on your computer. Next time you want to work with this shared project, open this local copy from your computer instead of checking out the project from the server.
