About Projects
Projects collect and organize the disparate elements relevant to your Max work including patchers, media, and code into a centrally-managed location, with per-project control over search path and Max settings.
Projects offer essentially three new features to improve your Max workflow:
- A simple interface with which you can easily view and manage patchers, media files, code and other assets in use by your main patcher(s).
-
An extension to the central Max search path, which:
- ensures that Project-specific elements local to a Project are preferentially loaded (before files outside of the Project are searched).
- isolates Project-specific assets from other patchers and Projects
- allows the user to easily switch between global and project-local assets
- potentially reduces the number of paths in Max's global search path, improving overall patcher loading and editing speed - 'Open Actions', with which Max configuration options can be changed when loading a Project.
