I'm wondering if there is a way to set the default location for all IntelliJ projects, something similar to the workspace concept in Eclipse?
Because I always need to change the IDEA project location when I create a new project.
By default, IntelliJ IDEA stores user-specific files for each IDE instance (configuration, caches, plugins, logs, and so on) in the user's home directory.
For the directory-based format, the IDE creates the . iml file and the . idea directory that keeps project settings. It's the default format for projects in IntelliJ IDEA at this moment.

ability to specify the default directory for opening projects. In the Preferences | Appearance & Behavior | System Settings in the Project Opening section there is a new Default directory field where you can set a directory.
