Workspaces for External Projects

You can determine the view of external projects when you open them in Cubase.

When you open external projects, which are projects that have been created on other computers, the window and dialog settings that you last used on your computer are applied by default. This can either be the last used view that was saved on your computer or one of your specified global workspaces.

If you want to open the original layout setting of a project, you have the following options:

  • Select the project’s original layout from the project workspaces on the Workspaces menu or in the Workspace Organizer.

  • In the Preferences dialog (General page), select Never from the Open Projects in Last Used View menu. This opens all external projects using their original layout. However, this may lead to a modification of your custom layout.

To return to the view that you last saved without any workspace assigned, select No Workspace on the Workspaces menu.
