I am using SE 17.0.3. When I create a new project, SE automatically creates folders: Source Files, Header Files, Resource Files, and so on.
1) Is it possible to turn those off from the GUI? (I understand I can modify the vpj file myself, but I am guessing there's a friendlier way.)
2) I created a project with many folders of its own. Now I have the following hierarchy within SE project viewer:
Project
|-- Source Files
|---- ProjectDir1
|------ file1.cpp
|------ file2.cpp
|---- ProjectDir2
|------ file3.cpp
|---- ProjectDir3
|------ file4.cpp
|-- Header Files
|---- ProjectDir1
|------ file1.h
|------ file2.h
This is annoying because each project's directory is sharded among at least two virtual folders. I would prefer the following:
Project
|-- ProjectDir1
|---- Source Files
|------ file1.cpp
|------ file2.cpp
|---- Header Files
|------ file1.h
|------ file2.h
|-- ProjectDir2
|---- Source Files
|------ file3.cpp
|-- ProjectDir3
|---- Source Files
|------ file4.cpp
Is this layout possible, without creating a separate VS project for each ProjectDir?

I'm not sure, as it's somewhat dependent on your directory tree structure, but you can try Right-clicking in the Projects Tool Window on one of the .vpj files and selecting Auto-Folder->Directory View or Package View. Not sure how Package View differs from Directory View.

Thanks. Package View works much better. Its only downside is that it shows the full path to each package, so I can't see at a glance which of the 30 package entries I want to expand.
