Overview of differences/overlap with SyncedSideBar?

Open unphased opened this issue 9 years ago • 6 comments

Hi, I just wanted to figure out whether there will be any conflict if I install both this plugin and https://github.com/sobstel/SyncedSideBar

Update: it seems like there is a conflict...

I didn't have the opportunity to test them both at the same time but other people mentioned something regarding a possible conflict, so perhaps it is something to test further, yep. Sorry for that.

Cool, I guess I will play with it some more to find out for myself, but I'm just confused about what this plugin does that the other doesnt (and vice versa)

That's amazing!

Basically what FFOS does is, when triggered, remove all project's folders, add them all again, trigger a "show file on sidebar" and change cursor's focus to sidebar.

It has to do these things to project's folders because otherwise it'd just focus the file opened at the top of sidebar, on the "opened files" section, instead of actually focus the file on the tree.

Please keep in mind that that was my first experience with Python, so if there's something really ugly I'm the one to blame :P

Feel free to play at will, don't hesitate to ping if I can help with anything!

Hmm, okay but i think SyncedSideBar achieves the focus on the current file without having to do any of that stuff (remove folders and put them back, etc)

I believe so, probably yeah, just that I'm not sure on how to do it properly :\
