Archiving Projects
With the function File > Project Archive > Archive
Projects With File Compression you can compress the files of a
selected project into a VXZ file, and at the same time remove the
files from the project folder to save disc space.
- Select File > Project Archive > Archive Projects With
File Compression from the menu bar.
- Select the projects to be archived from a list. The list
displays only the projects that have not yet been archived, and are
closed at the moment.
The program archives a project by compressing all its files into
an Archive.vxz file in the project folder. Later, when you open the
project, the program will extract the files into the project folder
and remove the VXZ file.
Note
- You may also use an external ZIP file manager program to
uncompress the Archive.vxz file. In this case however, be sure to
delete the Archive.vxz file in the project folder. Otherwise the
program will go on assuming that the project is compressed.
- You can also archive a project when you are closing it by
selecting the check box Compress project files in the Close
Project dialog box.
- You can export a project into a ZIP file without removing its
files by using the function File > Project Archive >
Export Projects To VXZ Files.
