Saving Project

A project file is saved as an ezp file. The file name of the project currently being edited is displayed in the timeline operation area.

The following explains how to save project files and about auto save/backup files.

Note

• After saving the project file, do not move or delete the source that is used for reference in the project. However, if the source is in the folder where the project file is created, the folder as a whole can be moved.

Overwrite Saving

You can save the project with the project name entered when creating the project.

Alternative

• Click the [Save Project] list button, and click [Save Project].

• Click [File] on the menu bar, and click [Save Project].

• Overwrite saving a project: [Ctrl] + [S]

Saving in Another Name

You can save the current project file (the one being edited) with another name.

Alternative

• Click [Save Project] with [Shift] on the keyboard held down.

• Click [File] on the menu bar, and click [Save As].

• Saving a project in another name: [Shift] + [Ctrl] + [S]

Auto Save/Backup

If the auto save function is enabled, an auto save file is created at a specified interval.

A backup file is created when a project file is saved if the backup function is configured. This file is used as a backup when the project file is corrupted or the system failed during the editing operation.

To configure auto save/backup, use [Application] in [User Settings] → [Project file].

[Project file]

By default, an auto save/backup file is automatically saved, with a “Project name—Year, Month, Day—Hour, Minute, Second .ezp” file name, in the project folder where the corresponding project file is saved.

• Destination of an auto save file → “Project folder”/“Project”/“AutoSave”

• Destination of a backup file → “Project folder”/“Project”/“Backup”

Note

• Copy (transfer) the auto save/back up file to the folder where the project file is originally saved and import the file, to recover the project from the auto save/back up file.

• Auto save/back up files are in the attributes of read-only and cannot be overwritten. Change the attributes of the file from Windows Explorer in advance, or save as the different file.
