The master copies of files added to the project, including file versions and other file data, such as comments, version dates, and user IDs, are saved on this host computer. When you work in files from a Version Cue project, you're editing a working copy of the master file on your computer, not the master file on the Version Cue Workspace, which remains protected and untouched. As you work, use the Save command to save changes periodically. This command does not create a new version of the master file but updates your working copy. A new version is created only when you choose the Save A Version command. This command first updates the working copy, and then adds a new version to the master file on the Version Cue Workspace. When the working copy of a file matches (is the same version as) the current version in the workspace, the file is synchronized. Using working copies of master files, several people can work with the most recent version of a master file. For example, if two people need access to the same illustration during overlapping periods of time, Version Cue lets each person work with a working copy of the most recent file version. The second person to access the illustration is informed that the file is already in use. At that time, the second person can decide whether to continue working with the file. Working copies allow you to work on a file even when the host workspace is unavailable, or offline. Though some features, such as versions, can't be used when you're working offline, you can edit files and save your work. When the workspace is online again, you can save a version to update the master file. There are times when you may wish to delete the working copies of your project files. For example, you may want to free up space on your hard drive, or are completely finished working on the project. Disconnecting from a project deletes the working copies project folder on your hard drive. You can do this at any time if none of the working copies are In Use by you. If you accidentally disconnect from a project, new working copies are recreated the next time you access the project files. If a project is deleted from either the host workspace or your local computer, you can use working copies to recreate the project with the most current versions of the files. To relocate working copies of a project, edit the project's properties and use the Change Location feature. For instruc­ tions, see "Create and edit projects" on page 532.
