Folder Properties, And Right-Click Options
Selecting a folder in the projects list will show the properties of that folder in the properties panel (Fig.
1.2.1). If the folder is one of the two primary folders, i.e., the active projects and library projects fold-
ers, some of the options listed below will not be present. These options are noted below.
Name: This eld holds the name of the folder. You can edit the text to rename the folder. This eld will
not be available for the active projects folder, or the library projects folder.
Load a project or archive..: This option allows you to open a previously closed project, or to import a
Tracktion archive le. The project will be contained in the selected folder.
Create a new project..: Select this option to create a new project. You will be prompted for a folder in
which the project should be created, and a template to use for the project. Section One of this chapter
describes creating new projects in more detail.
Create sub-folder..: This option allows you to create a sub-folder in the selected folder. This can be
useful if you like to organize your projects in a hierarchy.
Delete folder: This option will delete the selected folder, and all sub-folders. Additionally any projects
contained in these folders will be closed. This eld will not be available for the active projects folder, or
the library projects folder.
Right-clicking on any project entry in either the active or the library project folders causes a pop-up
menu (Fig. 1.2.2) to be displayed.
Create a new project: Select this option to create a new project. You will be prompted for a folder in
which the project should be created, and a template to use for the project. Section One of this chapter
