Adding locations

Per default, there is one location in the Navigation Area called CLC_Data. It points to the following folder:

You can easily add more locations to the Navigation Area:

        File | New | Location (Image add_location)

This will bring up a dialog where you can navigate to the folder you wish to use as your new location (see figure 3.4).

When you click Open, the new location is added to the Navigation Area as shown in figure 3.5.

The name of the new location will be the name of the folder selected for the location. To see where the folder is located on your computer, place your mouse cursor on the location icon (Image location) for a second. This will show the path to the location.

Sharing data is possible if you add a location on a network drive. The procedure is similar to the one described above. When you add a location on a network drive or a removable drive, the location will appear inactive when you are not connected. Once you connect to the drive again, click Update All (Image updates) and it will become active (note that there will be a few seconds' delay from you connect).
