154 Chapter 2 Creating and Managing Projects
To set a new location for the Autosave vault:
m Click Choose and select a new location in the sheet.
To revert to an autosaved project:
1 Choose File > Restore From Autosave.
The Restore Project sheet appears.
2 Choose a saved project from the pop-up menu.
Reverting Projects
The Revert command discards all changes you’ve made to a project since the last time
you saved it. The Revert command is especially useful as a tool for trying out numerous
changes in your project. You can save your project in the state you like it, then make all
the changes you want. If you don’t like the result, use the Revert command to
immediately go back to the way it was before.
Note: You can also use Motion’s unlimited undo feature to achieve the same purpose in
incremental steps. For more information on the Undo command, see “
The Edit Menu ”
on page 126.
To revert a project to the last saved version:
m Choose File > Revert.
Opening and Closing Projects
You can open one or more previously saved project files either in the Finder or from
within Motion. You can have as many projects open at the same time as the amount of
RAM in your computer can support. Your computer’s RAM is divided up among the
operating system, any other applications that are currently open, and all currently open
documents. If, at any point, you notice a decrease in performance because you’ve run
out of RAM, simply quit one or more other applications, or close one or more open
projects to free up RAM for the remaining open projects.
