Project Switcher

The project dropdown at the left of the toolbar shows the name of the currently open project. Click it to open a menu.

What you can do

  • Switch project — click any project name in the list to open it. Your current project is saved automatically first.
  • New project — click + New project … and enter a name. fotobuch creates a fresh empty project and opens it.
  • Switch folder — click ⇄ Switch vault … to pick a different folder on your computer. All projects in that folder become available in the dropdown.

Projects and folders

All your photo books live inside a single folder on your computer. You choose that folder once and fotobuch remembers it. Each project is a separate photo book — you can have as many as you like in the same folder.

Project naming rules

  • Must start with a letter.
  • May contain letters, digits, ., _, and -.
  • No .. sequence allowed.
  • Maximum 50 characters.
  • Must be unique within the folder.
  • The exact name fotobuch is reserved (names like fotobuch-2025 are allowed).
