•

To create a folder at the root level of the project tree, right-click anywhere in the project tree, and select Create New Folder | At Root Level.

The new folder will be added under the current folder or to the root list in alphabetic order by folder name.

You can create a project within the context of the project tree. To so, you must have the Create Project permission.

To complete the project creation process, proceed with step 3 in the Creating a Code Insight Project section.

The new project will be added under the current folder or to the root list in alphabetic order by project name.

To move a project to a different folder in the project tree, you must have a Project Administrator role.

Renaming a Project (via the Project Tree)

You can rename a project only if you have a Project Administrator role.

Double-click the project name, and overwrite the current name with the new name.

Deleting a Project (via the Project Tree)

As a Project Administrator, you can delete a project by right-clicking the project and selecting Delete Project. However, you should refer to Deleting a Code Insight Project for the complete procedure and for a description of the implications of a project deletion.

A Confirm pop-up window is displayed, requesting that confirm proceeding with folder deletion.
