Editing a Working Set

You can edit an active working set (a working set whose filter is presently applied to the workspace) to change the projects that appear in your workspace.

Note:

Before you edit a working set, you can associate projects with system-defined tags (such as the Base Project tag) and with tags that you create, and filter the workspace to include or exclude projects associated with this tag. Also, you can create your own tags. See "Project Editor Tag Tab" and "Creating Tags" for more information.

To edit a working set:

  1. From the Studio Projects view or from the Solution view, click the View Menu icon in the view toolbar.

    The context menu options appear.

  2. From the context menu list, select the Edit Active Working Set option.

    The Edit Working Set dialog box appears.

  3. In the Working Set Name field, edit the name that describes the working set.

  4. Select the working set filter option.

    • Select Include to include specific projects in the workspace.

    • Select Exclude to exclude specific projects from the workspace.

  5. In the Project Type area, select the project types that you want to include in the workspace or exclude from the workspace, depending on your selection in the previous step.

  6. In the Tag area, select one or multiple tags to include or to exclude projects associated with these tags from the workspace, depending on your selection in the previous step.

    Note:

    If your working set includes selections in the Project Type area and in the Tag area, the working set filters only those projects that meet the criteria defined in both areas. For example, if the working set is defined to exclude OSM projects (selected in the Project Type area) and base projects (selected in the Tag area), the filter hides only those projects that are OSM projects associated with the Base Project tag.

    Tags do not apply to Environment projects.

  7. Click Finish.

    Design Studio applies the working set and updates the Studio Projects view or the Solution view to display only those projects and entities that meet the filter criteria defined in the applied working set.
