### 5.3. Save File

The Save command saves your image to disk in XCF format. For other image file formats you should use the Export command. If you try to save to a format other than XCF, you get an error message. The error message dialog contains a link that opens the Export Image dialog. Please see Avsnitt 1.1, ”Spara / exportera bilder”.

If you have already saved the image, the previous image file is replaced with the current version. If you have not already saved the image, the Save command opens the Save Image dialog.

If you quit without having saved your image, GIMP asks you if you really want to do so.

Figur 15.60. Save Image Dialog

#### 5.3.1. Activating the Dialog

- You can access this command in the main menu through File → Save,

- or from the keyboard by using the shortcut Ctrl+S.

- Use Ctrl+Shift+S to save the opened image with a different name.

#### 5.3.2. The Save Image Dialog

In the file browser, you can edit filename and extension directly in the Name field (default is ”Untitled.xcf”) or by selecting an existing XCF file to override in name list. Navigate the folders if you prefer a different image destination. You can also create a new folder if necessary.

Select File Type. If you expand this option, you can select a compressed file format for your XCF file in the list.
