SWD
SWD stands for SIS Workspace Definition.
The list of overlays in a view (including any overrides or filters) collectively forms a SIS Workspace Definition (SWD).
SWDs are denoted by a .swd file extension. This file type is exclusive to Cadcorp SIS products.
SWD files represent a saved view of your data, in whatever condition you worked on it last (editable, hittable, zoomed in, filters applied, etc).
To save the SWD use Save (File > Save).
