To keep your different work projects separate, you can organize them into AliasStudio projects. For each new project, AliasStudio creates a separate directory, where it stores all the files for that project.

Create or open the file you want to make the basis of the new project.
Choose File > Save as.
In the Project pop-up 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 click the Show List button to open the file browser.
In the Go pop-up menu, choose Projects.
Click the name of the project directory to select it.
In the Project pop-up menu, choose Set Current.

Add a frequently used location to the Go menu
