Description Marc-André Laperle CLA 2013-10-20 15:20:20 EDT 
Using Eclipse SDK 4.4.0 I20131015-0800

In JDT, the Package Explorer as a command in the menu called "Assign Working Sets". It would be nice to have this in the Project Explorer and Navigator. This would make it available to CDT for example.

See o.e.jdt.internal.ui.workingsets.ConfigureWorkingSetAssignementAction.

Workaround:

Check Project Explorer/view menu/Top Level Elements/Working Sets
Drag & drop the selected projects into the desired working set

If there are too many projects to drag selected elements through (working set is 5 or more pages away):
Window/New Window
Open Project Explorer
Navigate to working set
Drag projects from first window to another.
Beware of Project Explorer refresh bug - projects won't appear in working set until refresh, when there are multiple Project Explorer views.
