Need help with :
Step 1
When the 'Save' button is clicked, a save dialogue is presented allowing the user to save a snap shot of all the objects on screen ie the duplicated MC's including the description text in the box below to a text file on the local machine.
I am not entirely sure but the information that will require saving would probably be (instance name, x+y co-ordinates etc......)
Step 2
When the 'Load' Button is clicked the user would choose to load the text file in step 1 which would then load the snap shot and put all the objects and text back to where they were at the point of saving.
I know this can be done using MYSQL etc but I need to save a snap shot of the objects ie metadata to a text file..........
Try it out and Drag and Drop the Shapes, hover over and 'D' deletes the object.
Hit 'L' and click one object then click another draws a line between both.
