that you can use to organize and browse the grades and corrections that are saved on
your hard disk.

directory.

Primary In, Secondaries, Color FX, and Primary Out: Home takes you to the appropriate

subdirectory within the /Users/username/Library/Application Support/Color directory.
Each room has its own corresponding subdirectory, within which are stored all the
corrections you’ve saved for future use.

Still Store: Home takes you to the StillStore directory inside the current project

directory structure.

navigation controls at the bottom.
