Opening Local Files Outside of Media Folders

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

It is possible to open Local Files outside Media Folders and thus are not visible in Resource Tree.

Use one of the following:

Drag-n-Drop one or several video files from Windows Explorer to DW Spectrum window

Drag-n-drop a folder containing video files from Windows Explorer to DW Spectrum window

Open Main Menu and choose Open –> File(s)… (or use Ctrl + O) then choose the file(s) to be opened

Open Main Menu and choose Open –> Folder… then choose a folder to be opened

Invoke Context Menu on Scene (on empty space) and choose Open –> Folder…, then choose a folder to be opened.

Any opened files will be shown in Resource Tree until DW Spectrum is restarted. If restore Layout that contains Items located outside of Media Folders they will be restored in Resource Tree as well.
