Apple Color 1.5 - Manual (Page 88)

Reorganizing Saved Corrections and Grades in the Finder
Each of the corrections bins in Color simply mirrors the contents of the corresponding
subdirectory in the /Users/username/Library/Application Support/Color directory. You
can use the Finder to reorganize your saved corrections and grades by creating new
subdirectories and moving previously saved grades and corrections into them.
When you move saved corrections from one directory to another, it’s important that you
copy both the .lsi thumbnail image for that grade and the .pcc, .scc, or .cfx file that contains
the actual grade information, together.
If you reorganize saved grades and corrections in the Finder while Color is open, you
need to manually refresh the contents of the Grades and corrections bins you changed
so that they correctly display the current contents.

Moving Saved Corrections and Grades to Other Computers
If you have saved corrections and grades that you want to move to Color installations on
other computers, you can simply copy the folders described in
How Are Grades and
Corrections Saved and Organized? to a portable storage device and then copy their
contents into the corresponding folders on the new system. The next time you open
Color, the saved corrections and grades will appear as they did before.
Using Color with One or Two Monitors
Color is compatible with both one- and two-monitor computer configurations, and
requires a minimum resolution of 1680 x 1050 in either mode. Most users will benefit
from using Color in dual display mode with two monitors, as this provides the most screen
real estate and also allows for the most flexible use of the preview and video scopes
displayed in the Scopes window of the second monitor.
However, Color can also be used in single display mode, which lets you operate Color in
situations where a second display is not available. Single display mode is only
recommended on 30-inch Cinema Displays.
Warning: It is not recommended to run Color on a system with more then one graphics
card. For two-monitor support, both monitors should be connected to the same graphics
card.
