Project settings

[charlielee]

You should be able to choose a name and file location for your project.

New Project Modal

Pressing "New Project" on the launcher should open the New Project Modal.

• Cancel - this button will take you back to the launcher
• Create Project - this will create a project file at this location and a single take

Project Settings Modal

Pressing the current take button in the top left of the app will opens the project settings modal (initially). Eventually this button will display a list of takes list.

This will use the same form as the New Project Modal.

• Cancel - this button will take you back to the animator window with no changes
• Update Project - this will save the project file. It will be renamed or moved as necessary.

Handling renaming projects

1. When "Update Project" is selected a loading screen should be displayed
2. The directory in the new file location should be validated that is exists and project doesn't exist with the same name
3. The frame files directory should be moved to the new working directory
4. File names in the .baproject file should be updated
5. The .baproject file should be moved to the new directory

If there are errors at any of these stages, everything should be moved back to it's original location and a error message should be displayed.
