Document Libraries
There is no real difference between Document libraries and Global Libraries. The distinction is an orga-
nizational one, made to help keep complex projects manageable and to provide security features for
larger facilities. Libraries designated as Global are available to all projects but can be opened and
manipulated from the Document Library window. Equally, libraries created in the Document Libraries
window can be opened in the Global Libraries window. The default Project library created with every
Project is stored with the Project. It can still be opened in the Global Libraries window by looking for
the .PMX project file in the Project’s Media Files sub-folder.
The left hand pane shows Libraries associated with the project. Sub-folders of libraries are termed
Shelves. The contents of the highlighted Library is shown in the right-hand pane with information about
the objects in columns. Shelves are displayed at the top with individual library items below.
Libraries allow Drag & Drop operations from the Library content (right side window) to the Library/Shelf
tree hierarchy (left side window).
The L
ibrary menu allows new Libraries and Shelves to be created and existing ones to be opened
and saved. When a library is opened the media used by Masterclips/Composition may not be
