Editing and synchronizing working copies with a Version Cue project
When you need to work on files from a Version Cue project while the Version Cue workspace is turned off or you can't access the workspace on a network, you can edit working copies located on your computer in the My Documents/Version Cue (Windows) or Documents/Version Cue (Mac OS) folder. When the Version Cue workspace is available to you again, you can synchronize your files with the workspace to save a new file version to the Version Cue workspace. You can synchronize an entire project, just a folder in the project, or a selected file. You can prepare to work off-line from the Version Cue workspace by synchronizing the entire Version Cue project, or just the files you need, while you are still on-line with the workspace. This ensures you have working copies to work with before you go off-line.
Note: The My Documents/Version Cue (Windows) or Documents/Version Cue (Mac OS) folder on your computer contains working copies of only files that you've opened from a Version Cue workspace or files you've synchronized. Working project folders are created after you open the project from the Version Cue workspace for the first time.
To edit working copies of files you've recently edited from an off-line Version Cue project: - In Illustrator CS, InCopy CS, InDesign CS, or Photoshop CS, choose the file from the File > Open Recent submenu.
- When you're done editing the file, choose File > Save to save the changes to the working copy. When the Version Cue workspace is turned on and you have access to it, synchronize your files.
