bugs when editing library files in new projects #159

Open therewasaguy opened 8 years ago

therewasaguy commented 8 years ago

If I edit a file in the libraries folder (p5.js, p5.sound.js or p5.dom.js) before saving a project, I don't see the changes reflected in my sketch.

Let's say I'm editing p5.dom.js. There's an asterisk next to the file name as I'm editing the file. When I save the project, that asterisk goes away indicating that the file changes have saved to disk. I can open the file in another program and see the change I made. But the change is still not reflected in the sketch.

If I navigate to another tab after saving changes to a /libraries file, I am unable to re-open the file by clicking on its tab. I can only re-open it via the sidebar.

When I close and re-open the project, the file is overwritten. But if I make any new changes, at this point, I'm able to edit the libraries files without any problems.

Probably not the biggest priority, but this threw me off when I tried to use the p5 editor to debug / hack on p5 libraries. Does anybody have any tips for why this is happening?

little confused - you'll have to show me in person.
