Save and Reopen a HoleSnap Project

1 min read

Overview #

Projects let you save a design and return to it later. This is useful when you are testing hole sizes, comparing layouts, preparing multiple export versions, or working on a design over several sessions.

Projects panel in HoleSnap

Save a Project #

Use the Save button in the top bar to save the current design. A saved project keeps the main design settings so you can reopen and continue editing later.

Before saving, check that the canvas, shape, layout, boundary, and gradient settings match the version you want to keep.

Reopen a Project #

Open Projects from the left sidebar. Saved projects appear in the project list. Select a project to load it back into the editor.

If no projects are shown, save a design first or sign in with the account that owns the project.

Local and Account-Based Work #

Project availability can depend on how the project was saved and whether you are signed in. If you switch browsers, clear browser data, or use another device, local-only work may not appear.

For important work, sign in and use the recommended save workflow before closing the editor.

Keep Versions Organized #

When testing several directions, use clear project names. For example:

  • speaker-grille-120mm-grid
  • fan-cover-80mm-radial
  • decorative-screen-hex-gradient

Good names make it easier to find the right design later.

Practical Recommendation #

Save before major changes, before export, and after creating a version you may want to reuse. For fabrication work, keep the exported file and the project version together.
