Further folders can be added and removed at will but we
strongly recommend to not add an entire hard disk or
other huge folder structure since scanning those might
take a very long time and if the number of found items is
huge, PPG Wave 3.V might behave unpredictably.

Working with the File Browser

The view is divided into two columns. The first column
shows the file or folder name, the second the last
modification date. Folders have a small triangle to their
left to reveal or hide their content.

Files or folders that are added to the tree by either
dropping them onto the file browser or by using the
context menu items “Add...” or “Duplicate” are always
created with unique file names. These file names are
created in the style “original_name number.extension”
where “original_name” refers to the original file name
without extension, “number” refers to a unique number
starting at 1, which is incremented until a unique name is
found, and “extension” refers to the original file extension.

The File Browser offers the following mouse and keyboard
functions. Please note that all operations which modify
files or folders on disk require sufficient access privileges:

Click selects a file or folder. Selected items are
highlighted with a filled background in a different
color.

2nd Click renames a file or folder if possible. The
root folders cannot be renamed but all subfolders and
files can. Note that this doesn't change the name of
the Sound in that file, it only changes the name of the
file on disk. If a name already exists, the file is not
renamed.

Double-Click on a file loads that file into PPG Wave
3.V. A Program File (.fxp or .aupreset [Mac]) is
loaded into the currently active Program location
overwriting the Program that was there previously. A
Bank File replaces the whole memory of PPG Wave
3.V completely.

Double-Click on a folder reveals or hides its content.

Shift + Click selects a contiguous range of files and
folders.
