Is there a way to hide an active project (i.e. a dynamic web project) from eclipse IDE (I'm using Luna EE)? I don't mean deleting or closing it, but just hiding it for a period of time and be able to show it again.
You could create working sets and divide your projects accordingly, which means that you can hide them on demand.

I created a C project in eclipse neon and I am trying to delete some of the build configurations. However I can not get to the manage configurations dialog I am used to. The button seems to be missing. Did it go somewhere else or is my eclipse just buggy?
I think this window is supposed to look more like this. See how there is a manage configurations button next to the dropdown at the top.
I just tried switching workspaces and when I use a clean workspace I can see the button.
While the aforementioned hacks indeed work, such an approach is impossible when one already has many projects and now wishes to target another architecture.
I have found another way.
Right click on the project and select, from the pop-up menu,Build Configurations, and one of the menu items is Manage. This behaves as the disappearing Manage Configurations button.
PS: this is still a problem with Oxygen 3.
I want to customize Sikuli x IDE. Like changing the title in title bar. I found the code on gitHub for Sikuli IDE but cant make out which line refers to the title. And how to run that in Eclipse.
I am not sure what specifics you want to change on the IDE, but you mention running it in Eclipse. So if you prefer the Eclipse layout, you can code SikuliX projects from Eclipse directly and skip needing to modify the Sikuli IDE.
Get PyDev from Eclipse Plug-ins/Marketplace
Window->Preferences->PyDev->Interpreter - Jython
Click "New..." button and add your jython.jar and click OK
The System Path window there will be populated and if it does not include sikulixapi.jar, click New Jar/Zips and add that as well.
Apply/OK
Repeat for Python interpreter as well
You will lose the ability to see images in the project.sikuli folder within the IDE (as far as I know) as well as to take snapshots or define regions using the IDE buttons. However, if you were looking to customize your own IDE, those features may be out of scope for your application anyway.
I use Eclipse Neon under Windows 10.
I installed a plugin (MonjaDB) using Eclipse Market Place. As I didn't find the plugin to be very useful I uninstalled it using Help->About->Installation Details->Installed Software->Uninstall. Sadly, however, this didn't seem to fully remove the plugin.
I now have a small red square on the right hand side of my workspace in the shortcut toolbar. This cannot be removed using the close option. I went so far as to remove my installation of Eclipse and the .eclipse directory in my home area but after a reinstall the square is still there.
Presumably this means that it is somehow associated with the project in my workspace?? Does anyone have any ideas how to remove this annoying square?
EDIT:
I have noticed two things
The MonjaDB perspective is hanging around somehow and
If I press the little red square on the right it opens an empty tab in the tab set to the right (where mylyn sits) with the title of DB Tree but I cannot remove it.
I have added three screen shots
MonjaDb perspective Partly Active
It seems like your current perspective is the one that was uninstalled. Just try opening a new one via the Open Perspective toolbar button that's close to thevred square, and then you can try right-click > Close on the red square.
At least a part of this is intentional...when the implementation class of a view no longer exists we leave the view 'open' but are supposed to show an "Error Part'. The reason to leave it up is to handle cases where a user has installed a new eclipse and opens his old workspace before installing the extensions. If we were to remove the views the user would have to set up their perspectives again once they had installed the extension.
Note that resetting the perspective won't work because the class implementing IPespectiveFactory no longer exists.
Closing the perspective and opening a new, different, one should work. If the perspective you open has visible views that are no longer available you should just close them.
I was using PyDEV without issue but recently when I create a project in Eclipse the project is not visible in the PyDev perspective but is visible in the Java perspective. My project is a python project. It seems that the perspectives are a little mixed up.
Is there a way to fix this?
My solution was:
Going to PyDev Package Explorer
Click View Menu button (arrow pointing down, top left area of the Package Explorer panel)
Top Level Elements
Click Projects
Maybe you added some filter which is hiding it in the PyDev package explorer?
I.e.: have you tried going to the PyDev package explorer filters (in PyDev package explorer > Ctrl+F10 > Customize View).
Or maybe you set the top-level to working sets and don't have a working set on PyDev? (i.e.: Ctrl+F10 > top level elements)
Or maybe you selected a working set which has nothing? (i.e.: Ctrl+F10 > select working set)
I know this is an old question, but I've had to deal with this specific problem in Eclipse 4 Luna, and I have an idea for what's wrong.
Use Package Explorer instead of PyDev Package Explorer.
The native Package Explorer, when in working set view, appears to automatically create and populate the working set "Other Projects." PyDev's explorer does not appear to do this, at least not on my default Luna installation. As well, PyDev's assignment of projects to working sets appears broken on Eclipse 4 Luna, so users of PyDev Package Explorer may have trouble finding their projects between views.
Enable Package Explorer:
- Window -> Show View -> Package Explorer
If Package Explorer not in menu:
Window -> Customize Perspective
Click the Menu Visibility tab.
Expand Window
Expand Show View
Find Package Explorer and put a check in it.
OK
Click Window then Show View, choose Package Explorer and rejoice.
I hope this helps at least one of you. I'm terribly new to Eclipse, and it is probably the single most unfriendly thing I've ever had to use. Good luck!
I had the same problem. Newly created projects did not show up. This is what brought me to this question. While looking at the answer provided by #alecor_Dev, which does not answer to the question, at least in my case, I managed to solve mine.
If you have a working set created and selected new projects will not show up. The easiest way to test is to go to:
PyDev Package Explore->View Menu button (pointing down)-> Deselect Working Set.
If you has a working set but more projects in that workspace more projects will show up.
If you want to keep the view clean you can go back to your working set but add the new project by editing the working set:
PyDev Package Explore->View Menu button (pointing down)-> Edit Active Woking Set.
And click on the project you want to add or remove.
I hope that this will help other with similar issues. While working set are a convenient way to declutter the view, can add to confusion.
I Suggest to #Fabio Zadrozny to add some visible way of marking that we are working inside a working set.
I hope that #medPhys-pl can confirm this although he moved to LiClipse. Obviously, there can be other causes that can create this kind of behaviour, but the initial description of the problem seems very similar to mine and I hope that it will solve other people's issues.
This page says that I should be able to dock my perspective bar in Eclipse Juno on the left, just the way I've been doing it in Indigo, Helios and previous versions.
Except that the menu I get when I right-click on a perspective button in the perspective bar, only includes the following options:
close
show text
Has anyone else run into this -- is there something wrong with my configuration or workspace? Or is it time for me to submit a bug?
(I'm using this release: 20120614-1722 )
It seems like this feature will be implemented in M20120809-1200/4.2.1/Juno SR1. See
this comment on eclipse bug 383599.
Dock functionality is not available in Eclipse 4.2 - only in Eclipse 3.8
See comment #3 at https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=383599#c3
I'm currently in the process of enhancing the DnD for trim elements to include the Perspective Switcher (as well as tool bars and most of the rest of the trim). Hopefully this will make it into the SR1 release in September.
Note that we won't be putting the 'Dock on Left' context menu back though since we're trying to reduce the complexity by only having one way to do things...
I wouldn't rely on the online documentation for specific information, I think large chunks of it are just copied over from previous releases into a new folder and left there.
I've been confused a few times by this fact too (in my case it was also concerning the UI configuration).
The page you supplied in your link is indeed labelled Juno (4.2) but as eugener mentioned this feature is for the 3.x (Indigo).
