I am evaluating ST2 while developing JS stacked app. I am really happy with editor but as a long term user of Eclipse (JEE development) I am missing few things.
I am editing a file. I want to pres some shortcut that brings my cursor into Folders group. I found that this could be done by command: reveal_in_sidebar. But this command brings my cursor non-deterministicaly into Group # (according to group where the file is opened) or to the FOLDERS.
I would like to go to FOLDERS everytime so I can walk the file tree with cursor keys. Is there any possible way how to accomplish this?
You can focus the sidebar with the shortcut Ctrl+0. Then use arrow keys to move up and down.

I have a folder that I want Sublime to always open to ...
my_folder
Is there somewhere I can set this so that when ever I click on the Sublime Icon it opens to this folder?
For some reason if I manually quit sublime text through the menu it will open my last folder on re-opening.
However, if I just click the close X button, it will not ... it will open a blank window.
Is there somewhere I can set this correctly in the JSON file?
Well not sure if you are aware of it, but ST has a quick switch project (usually ctrl+alt+p) that will show you your recently opened projects.
Of course it has its own drawbacks:
Unable to remove one instance from it without removing all (clear recent projects cache)Can’t open the project in a new window… instead it only replaces the current project
But AFAIK this would be the most optimal way to work with multiple projects. you just need to go to the folder of the desired project and open it once and it will be available as recent project in the future…
The point of having to choose where to save the project file, IMO is because you may want to share the same file with other people or just have them wherever you want… maybe having all in one place is good for you (it is for me as well) but other people might like to have it in separate folders.
I usually work with the project replace window… or just go in “Project -> Open recent -> …” which opens a new ST window for me!
Hope this helps you
I just encountered an issue with a Labview project.
Background
The software in question is usually a standalone application, but for the sake of debugging purposes we found a way to run it in the Labview environment with the source files.
Issue
When we press the run command (which is not broken btw), it starts processing the files I guess, and at some point a folder explorer will pop up without further detail on what it is requesting. We have been trying to select the MAIN folder (where the MAIN.VI is), the SOURCE folder which contains all the VIs and subVIs of the project, but either way it just updates a log tab with the text "The application has stopped"(which I assume is due to us not selecting the correct file/folder).
I guess my main questions are,
Is there a way to tell what this pop up is expecting us to select?
Are there known function blocks which could be asking for a file/folder path?
Additional information*
A couple of months ago, someone knew this path and we have run it correctly, but he just forgot it, so that is why I am certain that it works this way. It runs in a Labview 13 environment.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Greetings.
Try searching the VI Hierarchy by name for likely culprits:
Open a VI or project and select View»VI Hierarchy to display the VI
Hierarchy window.
Initiate a search by typing the name of the item
you want to find anywhere in the window. As you type the text, the
search string appears, displaying the text as you type. LabVIEW
highlights one item at a time whose name begins with the search
string.
If there is more than one item with a name that begins with
the search string, press the Enter key to search for the next item
that matches the search string. Press the Shift-Enter keys to find
the previous item that matches the search string.
I'm pretty sure all the LabVIEW primitives that can display a file or folder dialog have either file or folder in their names but if that doesn't help you could also try save or write.
If you find more than one result, set breakpoints on them before running the code. When execution reaches the breakpoint it will halt and highlight the breakpoint position; you can then use the Step In / Step Over to check whether that's the node that triggers the dialog (and the Pause button to continue execution if not).
I'm using PhpStorm 10.0.4
When I start typing characters in project tool window it searchs for files containing typed text.
Is it possible to change this behavior so only files that begins with typed text would be matched?
Is it possible to change this behavior so only files that begins with typed text would be matched?
AFAIK no. There are no GUI settings for this at all.
Plus, this Speed Search is used in many places/tool windows and search logic is the same.
P.S. If you need to search for files .. why not try more appropriate (in general sense) Navigate | File... instead?
Speed Search only finds items in already expanded nodes (as it's a basic search on already displayed text) .. but Navigate | File... will look for files everywhere in the project.
It's not possible directly but you can create and use a scope for that.
Open Settings and go the Appearance & Behaviour -> Scopes. Create a new scope, give it a name (let's say "My Files") and put file:*/c* in the Pattern edit box.
In the big list of files under the Pattern edit box you can preview its effects. The files that are included in the scope are colored in green, the directories that contain included files are colored in blue.
This simple pattern selects only the files whose name start with c, in all directories. You can use slightly more complex filters using wild cards, include or exclude entire directories etc. With a little practice you can create filters that match usual needs pretty well.
When you are pleased with the scope definition, close the Settings box and go back to the Project view. Click on the arrow next to Project and you'll get a list of views of the project files. All the scopes you created should be there. Select "My Files" and only the files (and directories) included in that scope will be displayed in the Project view.
It is not a dynamic filter, you have to work a little to set it up, but it is useful when you work on large projects, with thousands of files, and you need to hide the files not important for your task.
I have strange problem connecting with PhpStorm IDE. I use version 2016.3.2 Build #PS-163.10504.2.
I love using Ctrl + Shift + N for searching files which I need to override. I have 2 project (one new, one old) and in old file searching works fine and in new search only for twig files and nothing else.
Is there any configuration I need to change?
Check filter -- the blue Funnel icon on the right top corner of that popup -- you may have selected to list files of certain types only.
Otherwise -- try universal File | Invalidate Caches... and restart IDE -- it usually helps in such "suddenly stop working" situations.
How can I open few projects in left work area in PhpStorm? I need to quick switch between projects.
If you want to open more than one project in this way (and by this I mean so they have their own different settings), then currently it is not possible.
http://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/WI-15187 -- vote/star/comment to get notified on progress.
If you need to include files from those projects for reference purposes (to see how you have done it there, to copy some code from there etc) -- you can include them under "External Libraries" -- Settings | PHP | Include paths. Files included this way are protected from modifications.
If you need to modify those files ... you can add them into actual project as Additional Content Root (Settings | Directories| Add Content Root) -- such folders will be treated as part of the actual project with no separate settings.
Other than that -- Alt + Tab (or whatever the shortcut is on your OS) to switch between different PhpStorm windows (each project is opened in separate window/frame).
This is a right on time answer.
It is possible to quick switch between project by adding a keyboard shortcut to the "manage project" menu.
To do just that, go to Settings > Keymap and search for "Manage Projects". Then add it the keyboard shortcut you desire and you're all set.
Hope this will help someone looking for an answer like I did.
As LazyOne said, you can add paths to your project from Setting | PHP | Include paths or from the useful keystroke F4.
But I'd like to also share how I organise my projects, I think when you create a project, you should not open a new window but instead open it in the same window.
This way you don't get confused between the different opened windows.
In settings you can assign a keystroke to Reopen recent projects. I then use ctrl + shift + R but it is up for you to chose the keystroke you like.
Hope this will help you as I struggled as well to find a way to manage all my current projects.
