Creates a new HISE preset. You can save it in two different ways:
- As a compressed (.hip) Archive , which will show up in the HISE projects Presets Folder .
- As a human readable XML File which will be saved in the XmlPresetBackups Folder . (good for version control)

ctrl + shift + S
Save as XML
Saves the current HISE presets module structure as a .xml
file in the XmlPresetBackups Folder
.
Another Interface .xml
is automatically generated in respectively named UIData
subfolder.
When you save a HISE Preset with this method, the scripts of your ScriptProcessors will also be saved. They will show up in the Scripts
> ScriptProcessors > (your PresetName) >
Folder and combine all the ScriptProcessors Callbacks into one file.
This comes in handy if you want to save your project in a version control system and track your changes.

Copy snippet script files to current project
This menu item is only visible in the Snippet Browser window and will copy the embedded script files from the currently loaded snippet back into your current project.
This allows you to quickly integrate the snippets into your project - just load the snippet that you want to import and choose this function.
Any snippet with the tag Framework will have one or more embedded script files that contain the functionality (as long with a few example use cases in the snippet itself).
Note that using this function will override the files in your repository so proceed with caution!
Create recovery XML from Archive

HISE archive file into a human readable.xml
project file and saves it ("filename_Recovered") into the projects Presets
folder.
