Open the menu via the gear icon
- To start, click on the gear symbol, then click on “Import from File” and select the file of your choice.
- If the file name already exists, simply create a copy or overwrite the existing file.
Our suggestion:
We recommend the first option (create a copy), because this prevents loss of information. Remember, you can always adjust the parameters at any given time.
