Title: Library - How to ?
Post by: Fastyves on November 24, 2002, 01:43:16 pm
In V8, it was possible to create multiple libraries, and through Library Manager to switch from one to another.

I searched for this feature in V9, but didn''t find it, or at least I can't figure out how to do this.

You should be able to add and edit libraries in the Library Manager under File/Library/Library Manager.

Then, to switch libraries, just do File/Library and then choose oen.

This is an area where there were a lot of changes last week and a few are still to come.

What do you see when you get there?

It's all still there plus the ability to catalog remote libraries.   There was some goofiness with the menus a release or 2 ago there not all the items were showing up.   If you don't see all the options under File - Library try uninstalling and reinstalling.

I did like thisThe problem is that the 5 *.jmd file have the same name for each library that you create, so you have to store each library in a different folder.

You can't save your second, third, fourth.... libraries in the same place.  Try c:\music2, c:\music3, c:\music4, and so on.

I just create a folder with the library name; so

library named "ape" is in ...\libraries\ape\*.jmd
library named "condo" is in ...\libraries\condo\*.jmd
etc.

Works well for me.
