Description jrojcek 2004-04-20 15:11:59 UTC 
Few participants tried to put project folder of newly created 
project at the location of existing sources. They couldn't figure 
out why it didn't work.
Comment 1 Petr Hrebejk 2004-05-03 13:45:22 UTC 
Please specify some solution or improvement which I could implement.
Would the project file paradigm work?
Comment 2 jrojcek 2004-05-12 12:36:23 UTC 
I did a few changes that might solve this issue.

* I did small rearrangements in the wizard panel layout of Java App and Java Lib. I also 
changed the wording in those panels.
* Created a special category "Projects with Existing Sources" that might lead users away 
from regular template if they need to use existing sources.

I guess all these changes are filed as separate issues.
Comment 3 Petr Hrebejk 2004-05-13 15:44:00 UTC 
Both of the changes already implemented.
