I'm almost certainly being dense here, but... what is this 'Preview' that is set here? Preview of what? When? How?

Hi Terry,

That's the preview image of your project file. Set a preview image, save your project (MVP) and then use the MEP mediapool to browse for the project in thumbnail view ("Large icons"). You will see the effect.   ;-)

cheers, Ralf

Hi Ralf

Thank you for clearing that up - never thought it was for the preview in the media pool.  The help infers that it will be the icon seen in WIndows explorer.
