Okay, looking into the exercise file folder, the original file, which was Lesson 02-01, was almost 20 megabytes. And then we'll check out the difference in file sizes. I'm going to go ahead and add an extension here so I can tell the difference. Although, you can change to some other file formats, we're not going to do that, we just want to send out Rhino files. So, I'm just going to select this option here, Save Small, we're not going to change anything else. Let's try that out, we're going to go to File, Save As. So, it's a really handy way to save a ton of file size. Whoever opens up the file next, there's just a short delay, and then the shading or mesh is recreated in just a few seconds. But if we were to get rid of the shading, it's not a big deal. And most people don't realize, the shading takes up space in the file. Now, if you look at the perspective window, it is shaded compared to the viewport right below, which is wireframe. Case A is going to save small, which will get rid of what's called the display mesh. So, right now, we're going to cover three different ways to correctly save the file, and optimize it, starting with case A. And you should know the name and where it is, as soon as you go to File, Save, you'll be giving a name and location anyway, So, there should be no confusion, the name and location. rhl, and that prevents people from opening the file that you're working on currently.
There's also a lock file, that's extension.
And under Files right here we can see that there is a backup file, which can be saved, I've turned mine off, but the format is 3dm.bak. Let's check them out by going to Tools, Options. Not to mention, sending out the correct Rhino file! So, what I mean by that, "correct Rhino file?" Well, you'd be surprised, there's actually several other file types that Rhino is using at the same time, they're typically in the background, but you can accidentally grab one of these if you're not careful. However you share your files, it's important to keep the file size to a minimum.

In this video we cover how to send out Rhino files, whether it's by e-mail, FTP, sharing sites like Dropbox, or even good old-fashioned physical media, like a flash drive.
