Open an Existing Measurement Session

A measurement session is the file that contains a drawing/screenshot file to be measured and any measurements made from it.  The session will be saved with a .cmx file extension.  

To open an existing session, perform the following steps:

1.     Select Open Session from the File menu .

The Open dialog box is displayed.

2.     Browse to the session and select the session file (.CMX).

3.     Click Open.

If you are opening a measurement session with large number of measurements, the progress of opening the file is displayed on the Status bar (at bottom-right corner). The link between the session and the associated drawing/screenshot is saved in the session, so when a saved session is reopened, the measured file will still be open and displayed in the viewer.

Note: If the session is not opening, the file has either been moved from its previously saved location or has been renamed.  The following dialog box is displayed.

For more information on restoring the link, see Revising the Attached drawing/screenshot file.
