1-11 Save and Save As
Use the Save command to save your work. If you start a new drawing, the first time you click Save, the Save As command displays the Save Drawing As dialog box. You can select Save As at any time if you want to save your drawing using a different name or in a different location, but most of the time you will use the Save command to simply save your work.
Using the Save and Save As Commands
Click the Save button on the Quick Access Toolbar at the top of the screen, above the Home panel (Figure 1-33).

Because this drawing has not yet been saved, the Save Drawing As dialog box appears (Figure 1-34). In this example, the file name Drawing1.dwg appears. This is the default name that was created automatically when the new drawing was opened.
)

Figure 1-34 shows a folder named EGA2023 created under Documents.
