Exclude file from Project within IDE
Hello Master Roberto,
While using IDE, I found no way to
1) Exclude a file from the project
2) Rename an existing file already included to the project
I managed those tasks with explorer. These can also be done with text editor. But, if we get these functions within IDE, this will be great help
Thanks in advance.
With best regards.

Exclude File is already there in IDE (See Project -> Delete File)
East or West HMG is the Best.
South or North HMG is worth.

Re: Exclude file from Project within IDE
IDE uses now the project folder itself to manage project files.sudip wrote:Hello Master Roberto,

If you want to 'exclude' a file from the project it is deleted from project folder (Project->Delete File).
If you want to 'import' a file to a project you must use Project->Import File. This way the file will be copied from its original location to the project folder, then it will appear in the corresponding project browser tab according its type (extension).
When you add a program module an additional task is done automatically for you: The project main file (.hbp) is updated.
So, you do not need explorer or a text editor for these tasks.
Regarding 'rename', you are right. That feature is missing and could be good to add it.
Regards/Saludos,

Re: Exclude file from Project within IDE
Thanks a lot Master Roberto and Rathi for the explanation
IMHO, Project -> Delete file will exclude the file from the project and "delete" the file also from the folder (please correct me if I am wrong). Using this feature we may accidentally delete a necessary file, when we actually want to remove it from the "project" only
Sometimes, users may also want to store some files in the project folder, which s/he doesn't want to include in the project
Please correct me again if I am wrong
With best regards.

Re: Exclude file from Project within IDE
I've used the denomination 'Delete file' and asked for confirmation, to be very clear about the point. If the command is called 'Delete' and you click 'Yes' button to confirm it, there is no place for confusionsudip wrote: IMHO, Project -> Delete file will exclude the file from the project and "delete" the file also from the folder (please correct me if I am wrong).

Re: Exclude file from Project within IDE
Thanks a lot Master Roberto
Sometimes we (users like me ) have some confusions. And some clear logical explanation like this can only solve the "mental bug"
Thank you again.

Re: Exclude file from Project within IDE
I think that we must provide general solutions for problems.Roberto Lopez wrote: I'm not so sure about that
Considering all possible cases at the moment to implement a solution, could become very difficult to the average user to cope with the interface.
The most clear example for this, are the two most popular desktops for Linux: GNOME and KDE.
For me, KDE is excessively complex and confusing. Usually, takes a lot of time to understand how to achieve a simple task, because you have LOTS of options for each thing.
By the other hand, GNOME is simple, clean and powerful. Most things can be done straightforward.
Since the most popular Linux OS (Ubuntu) uses GNOME by default, maybe I'm not so wrong

Now, I understand the "philosophy" (I hope so ).
