Import Sketches

If you want to import a sketch that you initially created in Apex there are several ways to do so.

 

	Import from WinTOTAL

1. In TOTAL's Sketch PowerView, click Import Sketch in the top toolbar.
2. In the window that appears, browse to the report containing the Apex or TOTAL sketch you wish to import.
3. Click to select the report containing the sketch you wish to import. Then, click Import.

TOTAL imports the sketch into your report. If the sketch is an Apex sketch that you wish to convert to TOTAL Sketch format, ensure that TOTAL Sketch is set as your preferred sketcher and simply edit the sketch file.

 

	Import from TOTAL Sketch

1. With a blank sketch open in TOTAL Sketch, click File, Import Sketch.
2. Browse out to the TOTAL Sketch file (.dsk), WinTOTAL file containing a sketch (.zap), or Apex sketch file (.ax2, .ax3, or .ax4) you wish to import.
3. Click to select the sketch file and then click Open.

TOTAL Sketch imports the sketch and, if it's an Apex sketch, converts it to TOTAL Sketch format.

 

	Drag & Drop Import

TOTAL Sketch also supports drag and drop file imports. If you know the location of the sketch file or WinTOTAL report containing the sketch file you wish to import on your computer, just browse out to that folder on your computer's hard drive (in Windows) and then drag and drop the sketch file or WinTOTAL report file onto an empty sketch in TOTAL Sketch. TOTAL Sketch imports the sketch and, if it's an Apex sketch, converts it to TOTAL Sketch format.
