You do not necessarily have to log on to Avid Liquid in order to work with the system, but doing so offers
certain advantages, especially when several users are working on the same system. If you log on under a
specific user name,
- The last Project edited under this name is opened with exactly the same status that it had when it was
last exited.
- The Avid Liquid user interface is configured with the customized settings for this user (toolbars, key-
board assignment, etc.).
- If applicable, you are prompted to enter a password that protects the settings against unauthorized
accesses.
All your individual settings (User Profile) can be saved on a diskette and used on any system running
under Avid Liquid, thus providing you with a portable, personalized working environment.
If the User Login dialog box does not appear on the system you are working on (because the software is
being launched for the first time or the dialog box was not used by previous users), exit Avid Liquid by
selecting File > Exit Avid Liquid >... log on as a different user. This will activate the login procedure.
If you do not need the User Login dialog box, select Cancel or press
ESC to bypass it.
