I've had this problem before and it drives me batshit crazy. Can't
remember how I solved it either.
New computer with new eclipse install. I copied existing projects from old
computer and paste then into new computer. Then I set the workspace to
base of those folders, but when I launch eclipse it doesn't show the
projects.
If I try to import the projects it says "xxx overlaps the current
workspace".
Why must this be so complicated?
thanks.

To import old projects into a new workspace...
a) assume you have all the old stuff in c:\workspace1
b) launch Eclipse. Point it at a new workspace, say, c:\workspace2
c) import > existing projects
d) point Eclipse at the old projects, and optionally have it copy them
over into the new workspace; you can also just point at them if you
don't mind having projects in root workspaces (or more)
e) if you copied them over, you can safely delete the old ones in
workspace1, as they'll also now exist in workspace2. If you're just
linking, then DO NOT delete the old projects in workspace1!
Why is this complicated? Because Eclipse retains metadata and histories
of your projects, so you can't just copy them into a workspace and have
it "find" them; you can also have folders in your workspace which are
not projects, or are closed/deleted projects (but which still physically
exist, even if Eclipse can't see them or has been told NOT to see them).
Or, simply put: *it's more complicated because it's more powerful.*
Personally, I'd like to see a "reopen project in current physical
workspace not listed in active workspace" option so that you can
reimport an existing project you might have
project-from-workspace-deleted (but not bits-from-the-disc-deleted) w/o
having to go thru this song-and-dance.
However, it doesn't bother me enough to file a bug report. Maybe you'd
like to do so?

Hi,
The description template isn't behaving as i expected --- incase anyone =
wants to look at it --- it's defined as; http://pastebin.com/m7ae0df43. =
the cursor seems to jump fine on the first row only, that is, entering =
an item followed by enter (or tab) moves the cursor after the closing =
brace ], on subsequent rows, pressing enter has no effect, i have to =
manually navigate to the part after the closing ]. I hope i'm making =
sense. =20
If anyone is using the TeXclipse plug-in and has the right behaviour, =
I'd like to know how the template is meant to be defined.
Template;
\begin{description}
\item[${item}] ${cursor}
\end{description}
Note; on the first row pressing tab or enter moves the cursor position, =
on the following rows it doesn't.
Thanks
