Is there any way to change where the web root (Web Content) folder on a
dynamic web project after project creation? I see that there is a project
preference file for this, but can't seem to find any project preference UI.

hi Cam,
For those contexts it may make sense to alter the associated component file
mappings programmatically via the virtual component API (using
IVirtualFolder.createLink() and IVirtualFolder.removeLink() as appropriate
to add new and remove old "WebContent" mappings; you can look at
J2EEElementChangedListener for the logic which performs this automatically
in response to rename/move events).
Hope this helps,
Rob
