i've tried to create a java project with existing sources, declared my source folders (src/java and test/src/java). in the projects view i see two entries corresponding to the two source folders, but in the files view i have tree entries. one with the nbproject, and the two others with my source folders. what i would like is to be able to specify the root of the project so i can see it in the files view. i have to say that the netbeans project directory (nbproject) is in another one than the existing project's root. was not able to create nbproject there because it already contained a build.xml file. freeform was not an option because of issue #53760
Created attachment 19823 [details] the three folders
