Different Models - Different Favorites?

[Anonymous]

I have been working on my favorites list lately and I just noticed that I am getting two different lists in two different models. I thought the favorites list was a global thing -- not tied to a particular project. If it IS tied to projects, I think that is the wrong behavior for the favorites. If it ISN'T, then why is this happening to me?

Any ideas?

It's tied to the file,

Is it a good idea to purge all the favorites at the end of the project by loading a blank favorites file? Will it save any significant amount of file space?

I've been doing some setting up of favorites as well, due to past thread on this.....thanks to Woodster.

I put my favorites in a library folder not connected to the project. On the hard drive somewhere convenient. Therefore I can add to the favorites and save them to the folder, and pull each one in on whatever project I'm working on. When you save the favorite, it will ask you for the location.

That way it's not project specific.

I'm finding out it really speeds things up.
