Copying Projects
If you wish to base a new project on a copy of a project other than the Default Project,
select Copy Project followed by Copy to .... You will now be presented with a list of
Project Files (see opposite) from which you may select a project to duplicate. The list
will initially show projects on the System Disk but you may elect to copy from
Magneto Optical (MO) or floppy disk (see Page 2-19 for more on the use of MOs and
floppy disks).
Having made your selection by stabbing on one of the project names, it will appear
(along with its ‘path’ name) in the red box at the top of the pop-up. Hit the Current
Dir box to confirm to the system that this is indeed the project you wish to copy.
Another pop-up will appear, inviting you to choose the destination media/directory
for the copy; once again this will default to the System Disk but, if required, you may
choose an alternative destination. With the correct destination in the red bar at the top
of the pop-up, stab on the Current Dir box.
If a project with the same name exists in the destination directory, a QWERTY pop-up
will appear allowing you to rename the project before it is copied.
Finally, before the copying takes place, you will be asked if you wish to copy All
versions of the project elements, the Latest versions only, or None (aborts the
operation). If you are simply interested in the basic setup information plus, for
example, the last Total Recall Setup and Mix, select Latest. All would normally be
used if you wanted to copy the project to an archive MO or floppy (see also To MO
and To Floppy on Page 2-19).
Stab outside the ‘copy-from’ or ‘copy-to’ pop-ups to clear them if you make a mistake
in the selection process.
Note that, unlike New Project, the Copy Project function does not select the copied
project to be the current project.
Changing Projects
If you wish to work with a previously created project, and it is not showing as the
current project in the Proj. Title box, stab on the box to call up a list of available
projects. Stab on the project you require, the pop-up disappears, and your chosen
project name will appears in the Proj. Title box. This is now the current project.
Before this project can be used, the latest versions of the project elements must first be
loaded (see over the page). Making a project current will not automatically load the
project data.
