| <h1>Switching workspaces</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> |

| <h2>Settings Transfers</h2> |
| <p>When you switch your workspace you can select settings than will be transferred to the new workspace. These |
| settings are supplied by the org.eclipse.ui.preferenceTransfer extension.</p> |
| <p>The SDK supplies transfers for:</p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>Workspace Layout: Opened views, their size, and selected perspectives.</li> |
| <li>Working Sets: The user defined working sets.</li> |
| </ul> |
