About Projects and Users
 
 
 

Create projects and users to define your working environment in Smoke. Projects define the display environment and provide a home directory where you keep effects setups and other resources. Also, clip libraries, where clips are stored, are associated with projects.

Typically, you create a project for each job you work on. A project provides an organizational framework in which you can define graphics display parameters, manage media in clip libraries, and save and load file-based resources such as effects setups, EDLs, and LUTs.

For each person working on your system, you can also create a user. A user is a profile that maintains preferences such as user interface settings, pen and tablet preferences, as well as a personalized set of hotkeys.
