Make differencies between attached project's tabs
Hi,
I could not find any information related to this topic but what I would like to achive is that when I opening multiple projects in the same window (with 'Attach') to be able to easily make differencies between which tab belongs to which project. Like coloring it for example.
Is this possible with current version 2019.3.4?
Thanks in advance!

No, there is not such option... Moreover, technically all files from attached projects belong to the main project - the IDE treats them as a single project. see https://www.jetbrains.com/help/webstorm/2019.3/opening-reopening-and-closing-projects.html#60f6c1dc
For projects opened in separate windows we have a feature request for coloring them differently, https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-127174
That's unfortunate. :/
Maybe I am missing the point here but I think with this Attach feature should be able to open multiple project in the same window even if they are not related to each other. So the goal would be to use only one window for every porject. Do you have any kind of plan regarding to the feature mentioned below?
Not sure... We have some requests for improving current setup, making projects less dependent (see https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/WEB-39015, https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/WEB-29578, https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/WEB-39210 and others), but I don't think they will ever be treated as not related to each other
OK. Thanks Elena!

You can create Custom Scopes yourself to denote such "other project" files
Once done, apply colors to such scope: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/webstorm/configuring-scopes-and-file-colors.html
