Is there going to be a way to create projects inside other projects or folders. What I would like is to have a top level folder then folders for customers then projects in those folders. As far as I can tell at the moment all projects go at the top level and it all gets a bit chaotic after a few jobs.

The problem is you can do more with projects than folders. For example I don't think you can share a folder and you don't have the project settings. I just looked at the properties for the folder where I store files on my computer and it has 700 folders and 8000 files I'd don't think that's going to work too well the way A360 works now. I don't think only having project at the top level is going to work for anyone doing real work for very long.

At the moment you have to have projects at the top level. I don't see that as a problem, for example you could have a top level project "Work" then have sub projects and/or folder for all your customers and then your customer projects.

that makes sences, the whole thing at top level then diffrent sizes the cut lay outs all in one folder.
it would make life easyer to have a part you make for diffrent people with slight diffrences between each version includeing the cut files all in one.
so template (the part), diffrent versions, cut files. big file yes but only one
Hello Everyone,
This is a very interesting discussion for me (I am a design architect working on Data and Collaboration) and I'd like to understand more about what your needs are.
I would really appreciate it if you could send me an email (jules.brenner@autodesk.com) and let me know what your needs are. I know that some people are sensitve about posting their data on forums, so I'm suggesting an email. Your communications with me will be kept confidential, so if you want to send screen captures of folder organization, that would also be useful. But all feedback will be useful.
It will especially help if you could describe the following:
1.) What your current organizational structure is in your file system (if you use one) or the logical structure of what you use. I am also interested in what you would like to use in future if you don't already do this today.
e.g.
Folder A
- Company X
- Project 1
- Project 2
- Company Y
- Project 100
- Project 200
2.) What you would desire in terms of sharing and controlling permissions. I suggest that you use your organizational structure to comment on this.
e.g. I want to limit one group of designers to be able to work only on Project 100, but want certain people to be able to work on both Company's projects.
While I'm suggesting how you communicate in this way, I'll gladly take whatever information you can give, at whatever levely you prefer to communicate, of course.
Looking forward to hearing from you,
Jules
UX Architect, Data and Collaboration
