Recently moved to Delphi 10.4 and I get far too many Units showing in the central pane of the IDE. (It didn't happen with XE.)
My main project group has up to 15 programs in it.
I can remove each unit manually from view in the central pane, but if I close the Project Group they all come back again!
Is there a setting I can use so a large Project Group only opens with 1 Mainform of the selected Project initially showing (as I had in Delphi XE)?
(The reason for multiple projects is they share lots of common features and form a toolbox suite.)
Grateful for advice.

I have a number of modules written in MS Project that are part of a template for our project managers. Randomly, a user will indicate that the needed macros are not availabe. When I have them share the screen with me, I will notice that the project file they have open does not display at all in the visual basic screen. Only the ProjectGlobal is listed. In the image below you can see what I would expect to see with the VBAProject (MO2206-....) However, when the user opens the visual basic screen, it is missing. This appears to be completely random. I have them open previous versions from SharePoint, and it displays fine. It diplays other project files they open as well. Even more odd, when I open the same file, I can see the file and modules. What am I missing that would cause this? Users are also enabling macros in security settings, etc. Everyting works as it should for about 95% of my users. Those that experience this have it happen once every month or so where we then take their project schedule and copy/paste it into the base template which fixes the issue. Any help is much appreciated!
I open a project, but want to create a module to reference in WebStorm, (mostly so I can do work in 2 projects instead of having 2+ instance of WebStorm open).
In IntelliJ Ultimate or whatnot, it has a modules button. It Kinda looks like modules does not exist for me, or at least I have not see anything.
I have 2 folders which are siblings to each other representing the 2 separate projects I wanted to open in 1 instance of WebStorm.
Where can I find this information for WebStorm?
A lot of the googling was talking about modules but I didn't see that option, and I believe I noticed some posts mentioning this is not a thing in WebStorm.
Thoughts? Guidance?
WebStorm/PhpStorm project consists of a single module only (WEB_MODULE type).
WebStorm cannot open more than one project in single frame. https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/WEB-7968 -- watch this ticket (star/vote/comment) to get notified on any progress.
At the same time it's possible in PhpStorm: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/phpstorm/opening-multiple-projects.html#d197136e31
But it's still will not be full "two separate projects with separate settings" AFAIK. It's more of a "attaching 2nd project so you can see and edit those files in the same frame".
Question is: why exactly you need this? To access files of a second project? If so -- just add such folder(s) as Additional Content Root -- it will be listed as another node in the Project View panel and files will be treated as part of the project itself.
https://www.jetbrains.com/help/phpstorm/configuring-content-roots.html
in Webstrom 2019.2 is it now avilable to open attached project to the current project.
Open multiple projects in one window
When you have a project opened in WebStorm and want to open another one, you can now attach this second project to the opened one, so that you can see both of them in the same IDE window. If you want to close the attached project, right-click its root in the Project view and select Remove from Project View.

I'm sure there is a simple option for this but I have as yet been unable to find it. Every time I close and reopen Aptana Studio 3 it collapses all the folders in the project explorer and I have to reopen them all, is there a way to get it to leave them open and save the project explorer's state when I close the program?
Thanks.
I cannot find any way to keep the state of the Project Explorer. However, using the App Explorer, the state of your open folder will be preserved. You can also try the "Navigator" which looks just like the Project Explorer, but appears to keep state. I will add the proviso to that: It kept state when I restarted aptana, but it also developed a GUI glitch where it appears to be scrolled to the right so I only see the right half of all of my file names and I cannot fix it, so this may not be a good option if you get the same glitch.
There is also a method which does not do quite what you ask, but may be a good fix for you anyway. If you click "Link with Editor" picture (two yellow arrows) in the Project Editor, it will automatically expand your project hierarchy to match whichever open file you have active. Since your files stay open when you close Aptana, this would keep the Project Explorer expanded to whatever you are looking at even on restart. See this question
You can also set up working sets for various parts of your code that are buried in the hierarchy and use the Project Explorer to show those working sets instead of you projects. This does not save state, but it does give you easy access to common parts of your code that may be deeply buried.
Hope one of these helps you.
Why would a .sln solution file open and appear empty in Microsoft Visual Basic 2010 Express - i.e. no windows showing projects and code files etc.
When I inspect the file in a text editor, it contains references to vbproj files (which are present) which indicate that it should not appear as empty.
No error messages are reported when the file is opened.
Update:
(To illustrate my problem)
It attempts to load the projects that belong to the solution:
And then results in a bare solution screen
Express Edition is limited to on project per solution. If you have more than that, you will not be able to use the solution file with the express edition of visual studio. You will need to open the projects separately.
The answer is that the projects did load for the solution but the Window to display them was not open or visible. To make it visible, go to the View menu and select Other Windows:
This displays the 4 projects referenced by the solution
Forgive me for blurring the project names but this might be commercially sensitive and therefore not for public awareness. But you get the picture.
In summary it was my lack of knowledge about the tool, though I had looked under the Window option first thinking along these lines, but the View menu is actually where one would go to display things about the project.
Thanks to everyone for your contributions.
In the RDLC report, in Design view in Visual Studio 2008, we don't see anything in the Website Data Sources tab and the button to Add New Data Source is grayed out. Only the Refresh button is enabled, and clicking it doesn't do anything. Our business logic layer returns Lists of business objects and the business logic and business object projects are both referenced by the MVC project. This is an MVC app, so there is no App_Code folder.
How do we get our business objects to appear in the Website Data Sources list so we can drag and drop fields from the object onto our RDLC report?
I think I suffered the same problem as this.
I solved this by closing all open VS windows, cleaning, rebuilding the solution then adding a new WebForms page (yes I know its MVC) but it then seemed to trigger a refresh in something and the data sources showed up when we reopened and editted the rdlc file.
I have also been frustrated by this, using VB.NET, but this should fix it:
In addition to the reference to:
Microsoft.ReportViewer.Winforms or
Microsoft.ReportViewer.WebForms
You need to also add a reference to:
Microsoft.ReportViewer.Common
The Data Sources panel is still blank, but when you select Add Dataset, you'll see the correct options.
Try this...

On the menu bar, choose View, Other Windows, Data Sources (or choose the Shift+Alt+D
I had the same problem in Visual Studio 2008. The solution I accidently found was to do the following:
1 - Launch VS 2008
2 - Open Solution
3 - Open report file (rdlc) and make sure "Website Data Sources" pane is showing
4 - Close VS 2008 (with the rdlc "having focus"
5 - Launch VS 2008
6 - Open Solution
You should now see the data in the Website Data Sources pane
One of the problems I had was that my DataSource class didn't have a parameterless constructor...after the parameterless constructor was added "the class" showed up in the DataSource list.
Small detail, but lost some time to figure it out. :)
