Main Menu
Let’s consider the available menus in more detail.
File¶
File menu contains standard operations for creating, opening and saving documents (SALOME studies) as well as schema creation or import operations. The SALOME study is saved in a HDF file with default extension *.hdf. YACS Schema must be saved apart in XML files.
If YACS module has been loaded, File menu contains the following items:
YACS:
Edit¶
In SALOME, Edit menu contains standard edition operations like copy/paste and undo/redo functionality. In YACS module, Cut, copy and paste are available but only within context popup menus. Undo/redo are also available, in YACS menu and toolbar. Cut, copy, paste and undo/redo are available in edition mode only.
Other edition operations on different types of objects are available with help of corresponding context popup menus or Input Panel property pages. For more information about this topic see Edit an object section.
The user can Delete an object with help of corresponding context popup menu item in the edition Tree View or 2D view.
View¶
View menu allows maintaining visibility of the different parts of the desktop like toolbars, status bar, Object Browser, Tree View, Catalogs, Input Panel.

YACS menu¶
YACS menu contains a set of commands for creating opening and saving of YACS schemas, importing old SUPERV schemas, execute schemas, import catalogs, and set some specific behavior of 2D views.
When YACS is started, YACS menu contains the following items:
Create a new schema : create a new schema from scratch
Import YACS calculation schema : load a YACS schema saved on an XML file
Import SALOME Supervisor graph : load a SUPERV schema saved on an XML file
Load a Schema in run mode (without edition)
What’s this, detailled help on a few items
When the active schema is in edition mode, YACS menu contains the following items:
Create a new schema : create a new schema from scratch
Import YACS calculation schema : load a YACS schema saved on an XML file
Import SALOME Supervisor graph : load a SUPERV schema saved on an XML file
Save Schema : save in the current opened file
Export a schema to a file : save with file dialog box to choose a new filename
Execute a schema : switch from edition to run mode
Save/Restore execution state (from a state of execution saved previously)
Load a Schema in run mode (without edition)
Load a Schema to be executed on a batch system
Undo last edition (modification of nodes positions in 2D view are not undoable)
Redo last edition
Show the stack of undoable edition actions
Show the stack of redoable edition actions
Import Catalog : to import specific data types or nodes
Straight/Orthogonal : toggle between straight lines or orthogonal links
Automatic Links: toggle behaviour for automatic link reconstruction when 2D View layout changes
Simplify Links: toggle behaviour for link simplification (less segments)
Force Ortho Links: toggle behaviour on very simple links (2 segments becomes 3 orthogonals segments)
Separate Links: toggle behaviour to try to avoid or not superposition of links
Show all links: some links may have been selectively hidden
Hide all links

Tools¶
Tools menu provides two standard Salome useful tools such as XML catalog generator and registry display for supervision over component’s processes.
Window¶

Help¶
Help menu allows reading some basic information about application with help of ‘About’ dialog box and provides help for YACS module as HTML documents.
