Rider 'Always Select Opened File' feature not working

[jcoqueret]

Hello,

I have a rule that creates an "Exceptions" folder with all files ending with *.Exception.cs. When I navigate between files using the tabs, Rider is not able to select the Exception files in the solution explorer view. If I delete the rule, it works.

Expected behavior: Even I my files are in a virtual directory created by a rule, I would like Rider to be able to select the file in the solution explorer view.

Hi @Socolin,

I just stumbled across your plugin - which helps a lot with special file nestings - thanks so much for your effort!

Regarding the Always Select Open File - it might be that my naming convention is the root cause, but it is not working as expcected.

pls see that attached screen recording:

https://github.com/Socolin/HighlightSpecialFiles/assets/575109/b00b55ad-857b-4a05-a56c-6b0069133164

my configuration is as follows:

with pattern: ^(?<groupBy>[^{]+)(?<childPart>[A-Za-z0-9{},]+)?\.cs$

maybe you can find some time to check this?

thanks and best wishes, Marcus

I have another bug I need to investigate when deleting a file in a virtual folder, I check both when I get some time (should be soon)

I was not able to find how to fix this, I asked and now I'm waiting for some answer about this. Since I cannot put any breakpoint in rider part of the code so it's very hard to find what is the problem.

@Socolin thanks for keeping me posted and the effort you've put into - I will wait patient and hope you'll get an answer from jetbrains :) thanks again

Hello,

In April I did a change that may have fixed this, can you check if this is still an issue ?
