Re: [orion-dev] "New Project" command invisible on toolbar

Except that I exposed a "Recent Projects" list in the landing page now.
At the time, I was trying to think of a better name than "root folder."
So maybe we should revisit this (again)...

As you can see from the code, we have been quite conflicted about the concept of "project". The term project has a lot of meaning for users coming from different tools, and we ran into trouble in Eclipse desktop when our concept of project didn't match user expectations. In Orion, although we have that concept under the covers and in the server API, we have avoided exposing the term "project" anywhere in the user interface. From an end user's perspective they are really no different from another folder (except for the fact they have no parent folder). Within the code it is sometimes unavoidable that we have to treat the "root folder" case separate from other folders, so we have the term project appearing in the code for that purpose. Sorry for the confusion...

Subject	[orion-dev] "New Project" command invisible on toolbar

Hi,

I am running orion workspace on my local machine. After log in to orion, on Top Right corner I am only able to see 2 icons, one for "New Folder" and another for "Link Folder". Though when I checked code (fileCommands.js), I can see that there is also code for another command "newProjectCommand", though this command is not visible on Top Right corner. How to make it visible on toolbar? Also what this command does? What kind of projects it create if I execute it?


Regards,
Pras
