Project Handling
Reverting to the Last Saved Version
Saving Project Files As a New Version
You can create and activate a new version of an active project file. This is useful if you are
experimenting with edits and arrangements and want to be able to go back to a previous version
at any time.
To save a new version of the active project, do one of the following:
●
Select File> Save New Version.
●
Press Ctrl/Cmd-Alt-S.
The new file is saved with the same name as the original project and an attached incremental
number. For example, if your project is called “My Project,” new versions are called “My
Project-01”, “My Project-02”, and so on.
Reverting to the Last Saved Version
You can return to the last saved version and discard all changes that have been introduced.
PROCEDURE
1. Select File> Revert.
2. In the warning message, click Revert.
If you have recorded or created new audio files since the last version was saved, you are
prompted to delete or keep the files.
Choosing a Project Location
In the Hub and in the Project Assistant, you can specify where to save a project.
●
To create a project in the default project location, select Use default location.
In the Project folder field, you can specify a name for the project folder. If you do not
specify a project folder here, the project is saved in a folder named Untitled.
●
To change the default project location, click in the path field.
A file dialog opens that allows you to specify a new default location.
●
To create the project in a different location, select Prompt for project location.
In the dialog that opens, specify a location and a project folder.
Creating Self-Contained Projects
If you want to share your work or transfer it to another computer, your project must be self-
contained.
The following functions facilitate this task:
●
Select Media> Prepare Archive to verify that every clip that is referenced in the project is
located in the project folder, and to take actions if that is not the case.
●
Select File> Back up Project to create a new project folder where you can save the project
file and the necessary work data. The original project remains unchanged.
