Dear community,

 

I would like to change a path name without destroying the project solution. Is that easy? Within the solution I want to deposit different versions of the Project. How can I change testEdip43Terminal to SolarmonV1 ??

 

friendly regards

Ellen

I am very satisfied with this development Environment.

I usually find it best simply to remove the files in the project explorer and then re-add them form the new location.

 

(an alternative "internal" way is simply to edit the XML project file).

That seems to be the only meaningful way.

Create a new Project within the solution. Add existing items from the origin Project (without .cproj file)

And then remove the first one.

 

thanks

Hi All,

 

I've found a second solution that works:

 

1. Solution Explorer (AS7) > right mouse button click on project > Contextmenue > Remove (project)

2. save Solution

3. Windows Explorer > Rename Path

4. Open Solution in AS7 (emty, no projects)

5. Solution Explorer > right mouse button click on Solution > Contextmenue > Add > Existing project

6. Search .cproj File under the folder to be added and click

7. ready
