Navigator

[avanlooveren]

The users I am supporting asked if there was a navigator view that allowed for directly viewing local files and file system folders like the Navigator view in Eclipse. I thought there might be some way to bring/import a folder (and files and subfolders) into the Project view, but haven't been able to figure it out.

Hi Andre,

In the Project view you can right click the root element and choose "Add Folder" to add a reference to an existing folder.
If you make changes to the folder structure outside of Oxygen you will need to press (F5) in the Project view to refresh the folder's contents.

Regards,
Radu

Thank you, Radu. I thought I had tried this, but there's a subtle difference between what I did and what you described. I had not right-clicked the root element. Instead, I right-clicked the white/empty area where no specific file was shown, but this was actually keeping focus on a specific file and giving context-sensitive selections for that file and not displaying the "Add Folder" option. Thanks, again.
