Field Editing Projects on Another PC

The “field editing function” can be used to ensure that projects move smoothly when, for example, checking out projects
edited on a desktop PC and editing them in a limited manner on a laptop PC. When a project that has been checked out
by field editing is opened, a message is displayed to prevent duplicate editing of the project.

Checking Out Projects (Check-out)

Collect the project and source clips referenced by the project in a specified folder on a removable USB storage media.
Instead of the original source files, proxy files for limited editing also can be checked out.

1 Click [File] on the menu bar, and click [Field Editing]
