Description
After using the Project Manager for Java extension, after opening a Java project, the vscode interface shows a JAVA PROJECTS panel, but how can I custom order the elements?
It can be adjusted manually in eclipse, but there seems to be no related settings in vscode, nor can it be adjusted manually.
