Hi,

Is there a way to sync editor and folder view? That, way when I open a file manually, it will be automatically visible in the folder view at the left.

Thanks in advance

Hey,

there is a option View -> Side Bar -> Show/Hide Open Files, opened files appear in open files group above folders. Hope that will work for You.

Hi,

Thank you for the answer, displaying open files is not actually what I am looking for. Instead, when I open a tab, I wish for folder view to show the same file within the folder-file-tree.

I get it now, if You will not find it (I think there is no such option, but I’m quite new with Sublime), submit your proposition on sublimetext.userecho.com/

You can right-click in an open file and click “Reveal in side bar”

Maybe this will help, simple plugin:

goto Sublime package folder, make dir “Project Side Bar”, in this folder make a file “Project Side Bar.py” put code below:

import sublime
import sublime_plugin

class SideBarListener(sublime_plugin.EventListener):
    
    def on_activated(self, view):
        view.window().run_command('reveal_in_side_bar')

Save and it’s done, rest will be done out of box

Good idea, very handy. If now the sidebar would scroll to a already visible file… But this is a problem of the reveal_in_side_bar command.

Wonderful plugin.

It’d be great if there’s an option for when I hide the sidebar it doesn’t open it automatically (I know it sounds contradictory to the purpose but it’s necessary for smaller screens).

Wow! Amazing Plugin. Thank you for sharing.

The inability to disable this unfortunately makes this otherwise outstanding plugin unusable for me.

For posterity.

From Hidden Side Bar reappears when ST regains focus:

Don’t blame the author, can’t know if the sidebar is open or closed. Sublime limitation.[/quote]

Hi! This package come with an option:

{
	// Plugin active state. Allows projects to override this setting if it's annoying without disabling the plugin entirely.
	"reveal-on-activate": true
}

How can be established this option to a project? I want to disable the plugin in one of my projects and I’m trying to set the “reveal-on-activate”: false in my .sublime-project file but I don’t know how.

Thanks!

It looks like the sublime settings API has changed a bit since I wrote that. I’ve just submitted a pull request that works with the current setup
