file-watcher icon indicating copy to clipboard operation
file-watcher copied to clipboard

When I change files using another editor and when I open Atom it loads an older version of my work.

To reproduce that you must edit a file in atom, don't save it. Close atom.

Modify the file externally.

Open atom. The external change is lost

Thanks for this, I will look into it and try to figure out what is happening. On Thu, Dec 31, 2015 at 10:02 AM Evandro Magalhães Leite Júnior < [email protected]> wrote:

Did you manage to reproduce the problem?

Okay, so I have tried several options and I do not see this problem. I am using atom on windows, and I also tested on Ubuntu. In Ubuntu I see the edits made in Atom for a second and then it reloads.

  • What OS are you on?
  • Can you see anything in the dev console (View -> Developer -> Toggle Developer Tools)?
