Can I change the location/name of PyCharmProjects?

pycharm

Solution

You can set any location for your project(s). Either through the File/New Project... menu, or File/Open... if you already have projects somewhere.

When you don't have anything left in the `~/PyCharmProjects` you can delete it safely.

Problem

I am using PyCharm 3.0 on Ubuntu 12.04. It has automatically created a folder called `~/PyCharmProjects` for storing project folders. Is it possible to: - change the location of this folder? - change the name of this folder? (I couldn't find any reference to changing it in the interface, on the JetBrains site, or in the settings files. Either it isn't possible or (I hope) I missed something.)
