How to view multiple projects in one window in IntelliJ IDEA IDE?

Question

In Eclipse IDE you have the concept of "workspaces" allowing you to manage/view your projects in one side pane easily and allowing you to switch between projects easily.

As i gather IntelliJ doesn't have that feature because everytime when i open a new project it always asks to either open in a different window or same window? And in the latter option it overrides my existing open project.

Answer 1

You're right; IntelliJ simply doesn't have this functionality. Each project is opened in a single window, either overwriting your current window or spawning a new window.

If you feel that this sort of behavior is something you want, then feel encouraged to put in a feature request on their issue tracker.
