Wrong keyboard focus? #39

Hi,

Thank you for the great extension! It works well to sync the presently open file and the highlighted file in the sidebar.

However, when I press Ctrl-0 (to move the focus to the sidebar) and then use the up/down arrow keys, the selected file in the sidebar jumps around to a completely different file (that used to be open).

Is there a way for this plugin to reveal the current file in the sidebar and make it so that once the sidebar gets focus, the correct file is selected?

Thanks!

Thanks!

I've seen this myself, and I suspect it's a sublime issue. I usually just switch tabs a few times until Sublime catches up. Try this:

  1. Uninstall the plugin
  2. Switch to a tab that would normally reproduce the issue
  3. right click the tab contents -> reveal in side bar
  4. focus sidebar and press up/down

If it still happens, I suggest logging a bug report in the sublime forum. If you can't get it to happen then I'm happy to investigate further :)

Tried that, and looks like it is working fine:

Ugh sorry I forgot to follow up on this issue. In your gif you're not using the "reveal in sidebar" context menu item, which is what the plugin activates when switching tabs.

I suspect this reveal action is causing a bug in sublime that impacts the focus sidebar ordering.

I haven't seen this bug in a while, I'd forgotten it was still open here, I'm going to assume it was in fact a sublime bug that has now been fixed
