User Manual

Introduction

File handling in Xynergi supports legacy formats from previous products, but also introduces powerful
new Project and File management capabilities. This chapter details the way the system looks after files.

Project Formats

In Xynergi, two "native" project formats are supported.
The newer format has the extension DR2. It has the strongest feature set, and is recommended for use
where compatibility with older systems is not required.
The older format is called MT. This was introduced in the DREAM I product series, also known as QDC
systems, and is maintained with full backward compatibility by XYNERGI.
Choosing Format
At the time of creating a project file, the system offers the choice of project formats in the New Project
dialog:
There is no way to change project format after creation, but you can save a copy of the current project
in the "other" format using the
