Working with multiple documents > Closing a document

If you want to stop working on a document, you can close it at any time. If the document has been modified since it was last saved, the program automatically asks you if you want to save the document first.

To close a file, you have the following options:

In the ribbon interface

The ribbon tab File contains a Close icon which closes the current document.

Tip: Use the ribbon command View | Windows | Close all to close all currently open documents at once.

In the classic menu interface

Choose the menu command File > Close to close the current document.

Tip: Use the menu command Window > Close all to close all currently open documents at once.

Via the keyboard

You can also use the shortcut key Ctrl+F4 or alternatively Ctrl+W to close the current document.
