To keep your different work projects separate, you can organize them into Alias projects. For each new project, Alias creates a separate folder, 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 browser, click the New Project button (Windows 7 and 8, and Mac).
A new project folder is created in the current folder.
- Double-click on the proper sub-folder (for example "wire").
- Specify a name for the file in the browser, 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 To (Windows 7 and 8), or Projects (Mac) drop-down menu, choose Projects.
- Click the name of the project folder to select it.
- Click the Set Current button (Windows 7 and 8, and Mac).
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.
