In AC 13 the "Use active Libraries" button is gone! It was a very convenient tool when you had to open many files made on another computer. Now I have to add libraries every time!

Is this maybe not relevant with 14's embedded libraries?

Hello.
What is "Use active Libraries"? This is what I showed in the screenshot? In the Russian version of this "History" link libraries.

Let's say you had 3 libraries loaded with a Project.
You open another file and you want to use these same 3 libraries. Prior to AC13, there was a "Use Active Libraries" button in the Library Manager, which deleted libraries from the list of libraries assigned to the project and in their place it put the libraries last used.
It was very handy.
But with the simplification of the Library Manager in AC13 it disappeared.
