The Project Inspector

The Project Tab

The Project Tab is where you will most likely want to start a project. Under this tab is information about the project, the studio, and the main people involved in the score. Text information (such as the project title, comments, etc.) can be modified simply by typing into the associated fields. When modifying the composer, director, music editor, orchestator, and publisher, however, you are limited to the people and publishers you have already entered under their associated tabs in the Inspector. (So, as an amendment to the earlier statement, you may actually want to start with the People or Publishers tab and then proceed with the Project tab.)

Once you have the primary composer, primary orchestrator, and primary publisher set in this tab, the values you select will automatically be assigned to any new score cue you create. (Those values will not change in the cue details if you change the primary values in the Project Inspector.)

Notice also the film artwork in the background of the Project tab; you can set this by dragging any image file in any standard format into the well labeled "Artwork (drag)". If the artwork makes the text difficult to read, you can adjust the artwork transparency in Preferences.
