Starting in version 16K, the HLS data can be stored in a separate folder from the HLS application.
Create the new data location:
- Determine the location you wish to store HLS data files. Examples would include an HLS folder inside the Documents folder, an external drive, etc.
- Copy the entire existing HLS folder to the new location.
- Change the name of the new folder to something other than HLS, such as HLS_DATA.
Cleanup the HLS folder:
- Inside the original HLS folder, delete the following folders:
- All sequence folders
- DimmingCurves
- ExportIFiles
- Library
- NutCracker
- IMPORTANT: Leave HLS.exe and all dll files in this folder!
Cleanup the new HLS_DATA folder:
- Delete HLS.exe and all dll files
- This folder will now only contain data.
Configure HLS to use the new data folder:
- Start HLS but DO NOT OPEN a sequence.
- Under the FILE menu --- select Use an HLS MAIN Folder other than where the Application Resides.
- HLS will provide a couple prompts to make sure you are sure of what you are doing.
- Navigate and select the new HLS data folder.
- Close and reopen HLS to begin using the new data folder location.
- Note: The quick open menu will be empty since the locations of files has changed.
