Oomph 1.0.0.v20141217-0934 (build 709)
I can import projects easily using the Oomph Importer wizard. But how
can I un-import projects that I no longer need? Hitting the up-arrow
button removes a selection from the list at the bottom of the wizard
page if it hasn't yet been imported. But that button has no effect on
any project that had previously been imported.
TIA,
Christian

That's not possible with Oomph. We generally don't support any "un-perform" of tasks. Given that the task that
originally performed before you removed its Oomph project from your workspace.setup is no longer known to the
SetupTaskPerformer I don't even know how that could be done. It would certainly require fundamental design changes in Oomph.
One solution to your problem is to manually delete the unwanted workspace projects. Another one could be to delete your
workspace folder (assuming that it only contains .metadata that can be recreated by Oomph) and install again. Even
easier would be to just keep the .metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.oomph.setup/workspace.setup file!

Yes, that just disassociates the selected Oomph projects from your workspace.setup.

Brilliant! Thanks, Ed and Eike. That was exactly what I needed, to
remove the stream from the workspace model. It works like a champ: I
deleted the projects and Oomph didn't restore them when I next started
Eclipse. Makes me wonder, though, why the up-arrow button in the
import wizard doesn't just do this edit to my workspace model for me ...
I've always been hesitant to mess about in those models in the toolbar
menu with the little bust-man, but now I feel like a Power User.
:-)
Christian
P.S. Thank you thank you thank you for moving the setup dialog into
the window trim!

I suppose it could be used to arbitrarily change the workspace's
streams, but it is an "import wizard" so it seems a bit outside of the
scope of its intended purpose.

It's definitely expected that users will edit things like the
Installation or Workspace so include tasks that will affect just that
one installation or just that one workspace...

Yes, that was a challenge because the workbench is slightly buggy with
respect to registering the exact location at which to place such trim
and with respect to toolbar visibility too. But it definitely seems
better that the wizard doesn't do actual significant work until you hit
finish and it's definitely convenient that the long running work can be
managed in the background!
