Saving flows and classification settings

Your processing and classification settings are stored in the project’s flows. To save them, for a backup or to reuse them in another project or on another computer, export the flows. You can then import them into any project.

Export or import all flows at once

1. Click the button to show the BTField General Settings dialog.
2. Click Export all Flows and choose a folder outside the BTG workspace folder. BTField creates a sub-folder named after the project that holds all of its flows:
   • Processing flows (real-time, single and master);
   • Auto-pick and Auto-invert flows;
   • ISS flows;
   • One-Pass flows: the dig list stage flows and the Final Dig List flow, which hold your classification settings.
3. To use them in another project, open that project, click Import all Flows in the same dialog and select the exported sub-folder.

Export or import one type of flow

Right-click the upper panel of a flow to export or import just that type:

When importing, select a folder that was exported for the same type of flow.
