Stored Tasks
Any task that imports files into a session is stored
with a session when it is closed, and resumes when
the session is re-opened.
For example, if you
Import Session Data with
Copy From Source Media selected, then Save and
Close the session before the copy completes, the
copy tasks resume when the session is reopened.
Grouped Tasks
Some tasks consist of many smaller tasks. For in-
stance,
Copy and Relink may require hundreds of
individual files to be copied. To help manage these
tasks, they are grouped under the originating com-
mand. So in the example of a
Copy and Relink
command, one copy task would appear with an Ex-
pand/Collapse icon in the Task window. Clicking
the icon shows each of the individual sub-tasks.
If there is more than one grouped task in the queue,
all of the sub-tasks for the first group must be com-
pleted before the sub-tasks of the second group can
be processed.
If the session is saved and closed while several of
these group tasks are in the queue, and if those
tasks are the type that can be interrupted and saved
when closing the session, all of the tasks reappear
as part of the same group when the session is re-
opened.
