Android Studio: Default Project Directory

Android Studio: Default project directory

At some point I too tried to do this, but the Android Studio doesn’t work quite like Eclipse does.

It's simpler: if you create a project at, say /home/USER/Projects/AndroidStudio/MyApplication from there on all new projects will default to /home/USER/Projects/AndroidStudio.

You can also edit ~/.AndroidStudioPreview/config/options/ide.general.xml (in linux) and change the line that reads <option name="lastProjectLocation" value="$USER_HOME$/AndroidStudioProjects" /> to <option name="lastProjectLocation" value="$USER_HOME$/Projects/AndroidStudio" />, but be aware that as soon as you create a project anywhere else this will change to that place and all new projects will default to it.

Hope this helps, but the truth is there really isn't much more to it other than what I explained here.

In Android Studio, how do I create a folder for project documentation?

In the Project Structure you can switch from Android to Project.

The default Android view structures and minimalizes the directories and files so that you as a developer can easier navigate through your project.

The Project view shows everything just as you would see when you browse it with your file explorer on your OS.

I think that is what you search for to create files and directories in the root of the project.
