Hello,

I saw there was a way with the variable PDIR to tell clarisse to find elements in the projectFolder(PDIR)/anotherFolder/.
But is there a way to tell clarisse to "come up/back" one or two folders ?

For example :
--SHOTfolder
----clarisseFolder
--------projectsFolder
--------assetFolder
--------texturesFolder

As the projects files will be in the -ProjectsFolder, is there a way to tell clarisse to come back to the level of -ClarisseFolder, then to go to the others folders ?
I remember seeing something like this inside Clarisse a long time ago. With a group, to tell him to go back from one folder or two, with a specific syntax (dots and slash)

Thank you !

Hi,

Of course. You can use "../" one or more times to go up one or more levels.
In your case, assuming PDIR=projectsFolder:
- to go to assetFolder: "$PDIR/../assetFolder/"
- to go to SHOTfolder: "$PDIR/../../SHOTfolder"
As simple as that.

This same syntax also works for item paths within a project.

Ah yes it's exactly that I was looking for ! Thank you for this, I tried to find this info by searching previous notes, impossible to get it back.
Thanks again !
