If you want to load a document in SignWriter Studio, you will have to export it to SBML. Then go to Modules, Document in the main menu. Then Document, Import from the menu in the document. Click on the Import SBML button, choose the file, click on open. Let me know if there is anything else. Jonathan On 03/05/2010 4:19 AM, MARIA AZZOPARDI wrote: > Just downloaded SignWriter Studio.
