5.3 Merging Projects

Merging Projects is an easy means to reuse parts of a Project (Templates, Formats, and Applets). For

example, to reuse a set of ‘ticker’ and ‘play video’ Templates and Formats, place these items in a separate

Project, then merge this Project with other Projects to reuse. Merging Projects can also be useful when

working with several people on a Project.
The Merge Project functionality has been enhanced with the option to do a replacement merge. Using this

type of merge, objects and assets in the merged-in project replace objects and assets of the same name

in the original project.
