This section provides reference material about the GDF Editor toolbar commands. The toolbar contains the following commands:

  • New Project
    Creates a new GDF project file and launches the New Game Definition Project wizard.

  • Open an existing project
    Opens an existing project (.GDFMakerProject) file.

  • Save All
    Saves the current GDF project.

  • Cut
    Cuts selected text to the clipboard.

  • Copy
    Copies selected text to the clipboard.

  • Paste
    Pastes cut or copied text from the clipboard.

  • Build Resource Script for Project
    Builds the current GDF project into a resource file.

    The GDF Editor will build a resource file for all defined languages, including the neutral language. The editor also creates a directory, under the GDF project directory, named with a language abbreviation (such as ENU for English and FRA for French). Each of these language-specific directories contains the GDF, the thumbnail image, and the icon for that language.
