Creating and Naming Projects
You can create projects at any time, although typically you create them when you import
images. When you import images into the Aperture library and no project is selected,
you are asked to create a new one. For more information about importing files and
creating projects automatically, see Importing Images.
To create a new project
1 Do one of the following:
• Choose File > New > Project (or press Command-N).
• Choose Project from the New pop-up menu in the toolbar.
Choose Project from
the New pop-up menu.
2 In the dialog that appears, enter a name for the project in the Project Name field.
3 Do either of the following:
• To move the image selection into a new project: Select the “Move selected items to new
project” checkbox.
• To create a new empty project: Do not select the “Move selected items to new project”
checkbox.
4 Click OK.
The new project appears in the Library inspector. If the “Move selected items to new
project” checkbox is selected, the selected images appear in the Browser and Viewer.
