I want to be able to have the solution template create the projects in a subdirectory without having to use solution folders. I don't know if this crude diagram will explain it, but basically I want all projects to go into a subdirectory named "Source". Does anyone have an idea on how to do this?

MySolution
|
-- MySolution.sln
-- Source
|
--- MyProject1
|
--- MyProject1.csproj
--- MyProject2
|
--- MyProject2.csproj
-- Documentation
-- Libraries
-- Build

The only mechanism using plain templates is to use a solution folder.

Alternatively, you can write a custom action that moves the files around, but it's risky as projects will be already loaded, etc.
