-Projekte sollten in der Erstellungsphase sicherheitshalber regelmäßig gespeichert werden, insbesondere auch unter einem anderen Namen, um gegebenenfalls auf eine ältere Version zurückgreifen zu können.
+To be on the safe side, Projects should regularly be stored during the construction phase under another name (e.g. Yourproject 1,2,3,4,5 etc.). This process will allow you to go back to an older version if necessary.
-Die experimentellen Programmteile (z.B. neue Tools in der beta-Test Phase) erscheinen nur im Menü, wenn unter Konfiguration die entsprechende Option gewählt wurde.
+The experimental program items are only seen in the menu when the experimental tools are enabled in the SETTINGS menu.
