I'm not sure I understand what the "Workspace" tab is supposed to contain. It only appears when no workspace is open, so I'm guessing that it is supposed to show a list of the workspaces I've created. However, it's always empty. I can do File -> Open -> Open Workspace and navigate to my workspaces just fine, but it would be nice to have them listed for quick picking in that Workspace tab. I figured I was just missing a configuration to indicate where my workspace storage directory is, but I can't find any such setting. I also tried launching with codelite /path/to/dir/that/contains/workspaces without success. So... how do I get my workspaces listed in the Workspace tab?
Using CodeLite version 8.0 on Fedora 21.

Re: workspace browser never shows anything
I just checked this. I also use version 8 and there is only one workspace at a time in workspace tab. The one I chose from file --> open --> workspace, or recent workspaces. There can be a lot of projects in one workspace.

Re: workspace browser never shows anything
You're misunderstanding. Please see attached image. On the left is the view when a workspace is open. You have a PHP tab, the workspace name, and the project names under it. Now close the workspace, and you get the view on the right. There is now a new Workspace tab with empty selectors. I expected these selectors to contain my workspace names, but they don't. They're ghosted out and unselectable. If they're supposed to be workspace selectors, how do I get my workspaces in there? If they're not supposed to be workspace selectors, what are they?

This is because you are using the PHP plugin. When you open a PHP workspace, the PHP plugin hides the workspace tab and re-show once the PHP workspace is closed.Yoglets wrote:You're misunderstanding.

in 8.1 I have fixed this and now both workspace types (C++ and PHP) are shown under the same tab: "Workspace"
The workspace tab is where you will see a C++ workspace (again, this is now fixed in the next release and you will see there both workspaces)
