How can I hide a few files from my phpstorm project

phpstorm

Solution

`Settings | Scopes`

Create new scope that would include only files/folders you want (or opposite: exclude all unwanted files/folders)

Use that scope in Project View panel instead of default "Project"

Problem

In my PhpStorm project, I have a few files that sit in the root folder and are not modified often. For example here I rarely touch files like `favicon, gruntfile, humans, package, robots, gitignore`. So out of all 9 files I only need 3. I can not remove them (they still needed for the project) and they distract my attention. So I am looking for a way to hide/exclude them. I was able to find similar approach with folders, but it works only with folders. On official phpstorm page there is a page which sounds similar but does something completely different (files still stay in the few, you just can not autocomplete anything from them). Also this answer from SO is also dealing with code inspection, not hiding files.
