To keep your
different work projects separate, you can organize them into Alias projects.
For each new project, Alias creates a separate directory, where
it stores all the files for that project.
Start a new project
- Create or open the file you want to make
the basis of the new project.
- Choose File > Save As
.
- In the Project drop-down
menu, choose New Project.
- Use the Save dialog
box to specify a name for the file, then click Save.
Switch to a different project
- Choose File > Open
(and if you are using the Alias browser,
click the Show List button).
- In the Go (Windows)
or Projects (Mac) drop-down menu,
choose Projects.
- Click the name of the project directory
to select it.
- In the Project drop-down
menu, choose Set Current (Windows), or click
the Set Current button (Mac).
Add a frequently used location
to the Go menu (Windows and Alias file browsers only)
- Choose File > Open (and if you are using the Alias browser,
click the Show List button).
- Locate the directory you want to add
to the Go menu.
- In the Windows Open dialog box, click
the arrow button next to the Go menu and
choose an option from the Set Paths menu.
- In the Alias file browser, open
the Go pop-up menu and choose Set from
the pop-up menu.
What if...?
The Windows style browser
does not appear?
Your version of Alias may
be customized to use the Alias browser instead.
- Choose Preferences > General Preferences
❒.
- Choose System on
the left side of the option window.
- Set Type of File Browser to Windows.
