Hi. I am new to teh eclips, but did watch all the videos before jumpng in.
(I am hoping this doesn't post 2 times, as I can't find the original post).
Last week I made a file and names it dawn.scut3 (fthe file extension was the default)
Today I went to my softtare and clicked upen project and the file is listed.
I click on the file and it says "Unable to open the project file".
Can anyone help me out with this? I spent quite a bit of time on sizing on this file (even though it is a small file), and would prefer not to have to spend that much time again. I really need the exact size these are done in.
I would appreciate any help anyone can offer.
Thank you.
Paula

Re: Saved File not opening
That is odd. Can you right click on the actual file and go to properties at the bottom and left click and then see if in fact it is a .scut 3, or maybe without meaning to it got saved as .jpg or some such thing.
I don't know...hope someone can help you.
You could also search your .scut3 files for ones called 'untitled' and see if there is any and what they are....then save it under the name you want it to be and put it where you want it to go.
I try to be careful to check the top of where the file is going and the bottom for the extention I want before clicking 'save'. I have made some mistakes before.

Re: Saved File not opening
Does it open or are you still having problems.
The original release of ecal had problems opening its own files. If you are not using ecal 1.002 then that is the problem and you need to update the software.
If you have vs 1.002 and If you want to pm me with your email I'll send you mine so you can send me the file to test, or you can upload the .scut3 file here so others can test too.
Let us know how you do.

Re: Saved File not opening
I have downloaded the update. The file still does not open.
I have attached the file to see if anyone else can open it.
Thank you for your help.

Re: Saved File not opening
Paula Anne, the file will not open in SCAL2 or eCAL. It has been damaged some way, perhaps as a result of being created in an earlier vs of eCAL that had a save problem. Since you are reinstalling ecal anyway I'd just start over and see what happens.
Let me know, and we always like to see creations made by our members.
Hope all turns out well for you.

Re: Saved File not opening
This attached version of the file should open ok
The original 1.0 release of eCAL had an issue with saving project files correctly, but the 1.001 update and beyond will try to open and fix the bad file.
If the latest version of eCAL still fails to open a file, you can email it to us at support@craftedge.com and we can try to fix it for you
We apologize for any inconveniences this may have caused.

Re: Saved File not opening
I am having continuing problems with opening files.
I found a blog called FreeSVGs.blogspot.com
I paid to download all the files.
I saved them to c/mydocuments/ecal/svgblog
I opened ecal and found the files, when I click to open the file, nothing shows up.
I can't open anything in the folder.
So, I went through my docs to see if there WAS anything in the folders. Yes, there are files there.
There are jpgs and svg files.
I will attach one of the files here.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
(PS-I am very comfortable on a computer, I do minor software repairs and hardware repairs. I can uninstall and reinstall operating systems and use a graphic design program to design favors. MY mind is simply boggled by my inability to use this software.)
Thanks
Paula
