For this you will have to import the files into the Library first. Importing files does not mean they will
be moved from the directory they currently reside in, they will only be referenced by the Browser.
That’s why whenever you move files, make sure to update the paths to their respective directories
in the Library page of the Preferences panel.
The Files pane allows you to import whole folders. All KOMPLETE KONTROL-compatible files
found in the selected folder(s) will be imported.
Procedure
To import a folder, do the following:
1. In the Files pane, navigate to the folder containing the files you want to import.
2. Select the desired folder.
3. Click the IMPORT button at the bottom right of the Browser.
You will be presented with the Attribute Editor.
4. In the Attribute Editor, tag the files you are about to import to the Library.
5. Click OK at the bottom right of the Browser to import the files to the Library.
All KOMPLETE KONTROL-compatible files found in the selected folder(s) are imported to
your Library. They are added as user content. Furthermore, the paths of the imported folders
are added to the list of user libraries in the User pane of the Library page in the Preferen-
ces panel.
You can also apply/remove tags at any time after they are imported. However, it may
be best to tag files upon import, since it will make it easier to find them later.
