Sometimes it would be convenient to use temporary files to save intermediate results from, for example, signal processing functions. You may not wish to keep the results, or may just want to try a few things out without the need to tidy up afterwards. This is where temporary proejct elements are useful.

Temporary project elements are stored in the set 'Temp'. Once created, they can be used like any other project element (e.g. you can analyse the signal, create segments etc). When STx exits, all the elements in the Temp set are deleted.

If you wish to save a temporary element, cut and paste it somewhere else in the project other than the 'Temp' set, and it will be saved.

Note that temporary project elements are a feature introduced in STx 3.8
