The Explorer Window

The Explorer window offers a convenient way to locate and work with the various source files that go into a ReelDVD project. The window includes a Folders pane and a Files pane. Like Windows Explorer, the Folders pane shows an expandable tree view of all of the folders on the current volume of storage media. The Files pane shows a list (which can be filtered) of files in the current folder.
