| <h1>Workspace Switching</h1> | |
| <p>The current workspace for Eclipse can be switched by using the<strong> File->Switch | |
| Workspace </strong>command. If you have already switched your workspace previously | |
| the previous workspaces will be available for selection in the Switch Workspace | |
| menu.</p> | |
| <p>The Switch Workspace --> Other.. menu item will open the switch workspace | |
| dialog. The dialog will allow you to browse for or manually enter a new workspace | |
| location. The combo will also allow you to select your previously selected workspaces.</p> | |
