Description Nikolay Metchev CLA 2005-02-03 07:14:49 EST 
At the moment I have many projects and I have grouped them all into various
working sets. Some projects overlap in many working sets. I want to be able to
go from one working set to another and be sure that all projects outside of my
working set are closed. There are 2 possible ways this could be achieved.
1. When switching working sets have the option of keeping any overlapped
projects open and closing any open projects outside of the new working set.
2. Provide a button somewhere that says - close all projects outside of
currently selected working set.

This is my opinion of how this should be implemented :-)

In the package explorer, when using working sets, I would like to see 2 more
entries in the context menu:
Close All Projects - closes all projects in the selected working set
Open All Projects - opens all projects in the selected working set

These 2 entries should be usable if multiple working sets are selected and the
context menu activated.

I think the best way is to set this in the user preferences. I think there are many developers switching between working sets often and opening/closing projects every time eats too many resources.
