Projects

Overview

The Projects page is your home base. It shows every project you can access, either as visual cards or as a table — toggle between the two with the view buttons in the toolbar.

Use the Search projects box in the toolbar to narrow the list as you type. It matches on project name, code, and description, and applies to both the card and table views. Click the × to clear it.

Cards & Table

Each project card shows:

  • A preview image (or a color banner from the project's accent color)
  • Project name and description
  • Start and due dates

The table view lists the same projects with Name, Description, Start, and Due columns for quick scanning.

Creating a New Project

  • Click "New Project"
  • Enter a name and initials (both required), and optionally a description
  • Pick a project type — this seeds the starting set of libraries for you
  • Optionally set an accent color and start/due dates
  • Click Save
Tip: Choosing a project type pre-populates libraries (e.g. Characters, Environments, Props, Shots) so you're not starting from an empty structure. You can add or remove libraries later.

Opening a Project

Click any project to open its Project Detail page. This also makes it your active project, so the sidebar switches to that project's navigation.
