Creating a New Project

When you start Softimage, the last project you worked with is opened and an empty "Untitled" scene is created. If no project exists or you are running Softimage for the first time, you must create a new project. You can create a new project at any time while working in Softimage.

NotePressing the Shift key when you start Softimage opens up the project manager so that you can select another project right away.

To create a project

Do one of the following:
- If you are already working in Softimage and want to create a new project, choose FileNew Project from the main menu to display the New Project dialog box.
  
  or
- If the Project Manager is open, click the New Project button to display the New Project dialog box.
In the Project Name text box, enter a unique name for your project.
In the Location text box, edit the path of the folder to which you would like the project to be saved.
In the Project Manager, click New Scene to create a new scene for your project.
