Create a Flow from an Existing Flow

Goal: Given a sample flow file, we need to create a new copy to make edits to.

High-level Task: Create a copy of SampleFlow.flx at C:\Samples\SampleFlow.flx, called SampleFlowCopy.flx at C:\Flows\SampleFlowCopy.flx.

Detailed Task:

1. Open an existing flow file by clicking on Open in the top menu bar.

2. With the Open file browser open, enter the directory that holds the flow file into the Root Directory input. Input the following: C:\Samples\Flows
3. Click the update button to the right to refresh the list of flow files.
4. Click the SampleFlow.flx flow file. This will update the file name in the File Name input.

NOTE: You can also type the name of the file you want to open into the File Name input directly.

5. Click the Open button to open this file. The flow should now be open on the canvas.

6. Save the open flow as a new flow by clicking on Save as... in the top menu bar.

7. Type the name of the file you want to save as into the File Name input directly. Input the following: C:\Flows\SampleFlow.flx

NOTE: Similar to the Open dialog, you can use the Root Directory input to browse flow files to overwrite.

8. Click the Save button to save the new flow file.
