In the solution explorer, right click on the “All solutions” node and choose “Import solution”

In Servoy 4.x I only see “Create a new Solution” and “Checkout” ![:cry:]( "Crying or Very sad")

Right! This is Servoy 5.1.x only.

You will have to import the solution using the servoy-admin page (using a navigator go to [http://localhost:8080/servoy-admin/](http://localhost:8080/servoy-admin/))  
Import the solution, then you will be able to checkout using the ‘servoy repository’ to import in your workspace.

In 4.x there is no Import Solution function in Servoy/Eclipse. The workaround is to import it into Servoy server using the Servoy admin pages and then to check it out from the server using Servoy server as a teamserver. This requires that Servoy server is setup as a teamserver.  
In 5.0.x and up you can import straight into the workspace.
