To change only the portion of the path that all highlighted assets have in common, use Retarget Common Root (see following). Retarget Common Root Lets you change only the part of the path that all highlighted assets have in common. This command opens a version of the Specify Assets path dialog that shows the common path prefix for the highlighted assets and lets you specify a new one, either by editing the Specify New Common Path Prefix field contents or by clicking the ellipsis [...] button and browsing to a different path. Use Retarget Common Root for repathing multiple files, particularly those in different directories within the common root. For example, if all maps were originally in various subdirectories within c:\maps\ and the entire subdirectory structure was moved to d:\resources\maps\, you could repath all files simultaneously using Retarget Common Root. To revert to a previous path, choose it from the drop-down list. If you change the common root for output files to a path that doesn't exist, you're prompted to confirm that you want to create the folder(s). if you confirm, the output paths are changed in all appropriate locations, such as the Render Setup dialog. Strip Path Strips all path information from the highlighted assets, leaving only the file names. Stripped path information is saved in the Set Paths dialog drop-down list. To restore stripped paths, highlight the assets, choose Paths menu > Set Paths, and then choose the desired path to restore from the drop-down list. Make Path Absolute Gives the complete path of the found asset file. This is useful when a relative path is displayed and you want to see the entire path. Make Path Relative to Project Folder This takes the current path of the found asset file and makes it relative to your project folder on page 6932. Asset Tracking | 7111
