Build Identifier: M20100909-0800 I'm trying to move a project to another location on my disk. In the "Project Explorer" view, the option in the context menu to do that is disabled. Moving resources within projects seems to be no problem. In the "Navigator" view, a project can be moved, but it took me a while before thinking of this route. (I have Tasktop installed, which might change the standard Project Explorer view?) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open the "Project Explorer" view 2. Select a project and right-click for the context menu 3. The "Move..." menu option disabled
Can you way what perspective you are in? And do you get a "Refactor" context menu item? Also exactly what software do you have installed. The control of the context menu in the Project Explorer can be influenced by many things.
Hi Francis, I have tried in the Tasktop perspective, the Team Synchronizing perspective, the PHP perspective: all the same, Move is present but disabled. (And no Refactor menu item on projects or PHP files, but I also do not see that in the Navigator view). I'm not sure how detailed you want the list of what I have installed? I have quite a few plugins (PHP, WTP, DSDP, Mylyn, Tasktop, Android, egit, subversive, Wireframesketcher, Mantis connector is what I quickly pull together from the About screen). If there is a simple way to create a list, I can attach it.
Checking up: the "Move..." menu is available in my Project Explorer by now, so I guess this issue could be closed as not existing anymore. (My current Build id: M20110210-1200) But the move dialogue via Project Explorer lets me select a location within existing projects, whereas the move via Navigator lets me specify any directory on my disk. Is there still a way to do the latter? (If I understand it correctly, the Project Explorer view is the default?)

Is there still a way to do the latter? Everything in Eclipse happens in the workspace. I can't make Move... in the Navigator specify any directory on the disk.
