Clone a project in Creator

[jomalogil]

I'd been looking for how to clone a project done in Creator and I found nothing. It seems is not possible
is there any "trick" to do it? (although it was necessary to do at hand)

I discover the way yesterday (too, same that release compiling). Procedure:

a) open the workspace where is the original project
b) right click over project and select copy.
c) close workspace
d) open a new project, but select Others-> empty workspace
e) write the name of the "clone" project
f) right click over workspace and select paste.
g) rename the project.
h) select different PN if necessary
and ready !!

With this method, project cloned appears clean. Only there are two files with reference to original project in the folder xxxx.cydsn, that it's possible to delete (by hand) without problems.

The other way, right click on your project/workspace and archive it. Extract the archive somewhere else on your hard drive, and you should have a perfect copy, ready to go.

Thanks jomalogil for asking the question and provide a solution. I just tried and it works well on cloning project with PSoC Creator 1.0 Service Pack 2.
The archive feature is for making a backup copy of a project. It requires a lot of manual modifications to many files to convert an archieved project to a new project with a new name in a new folder.
