I am trying out VS2017 (previous using VS2015), and I'm trying to navigate my code using Ctrl+Right/Left. Instead of the typical behavior of moving to the next or previous word, it changes the focus to different UI elements.
Using Ctrl+Arrows I can get to the reference counts from CodeLens, quick actions, and the project and item dropdowns above the text editor. The same result happens when I do Shift+Arrow and Ctrl+Shift+Arrow.
How can I return to a normal text editor behavior?
I fixed this issue by resetting all the settings and uninstalling extensions.
To reset your settings, go to Tools > Import and Export Settings > Reset all settings.

Is it possible to tune WebStorm so that when I have something like this in my terminal window, then I just click on the filename and jump to it.
Not possible using built-in terminal (please vote for IDEA-118566 and IDEA-154439).
Awesome Console plugin might be a solution; but it doesn't support built-in terminal (https://github.com/anthraxx/intellij-awesome-console/issues/23)
there is also Output Link Filter plugin that provides similar functionality, but it looks outdated and (also) doesn't work in built-in terminal
Update (2022): IDEA-118566 is already fixed, links should work. Please note that providing links for particular output needs adding specific logic handing such output. Thus, if you encounter missing links in a particular output, please file a separate issue request describing link output format and steps to reproduce such output.
Webstorm does in fact now have this functionality.
Note that the bug about this functionality being missing (linked in another answer) has been marked as fixed: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-118566.
It's not quite a single click solution, but what I do, is double click the text so that it auto selects and copies the path, including line and char numbers to clipboard. Then use the shortcut for Goto File.... Hit paste (cmd+v) then Enter and it will take you to the exact location.
For me, the shortcut for Goto File... is cmd+shift+O - you can check your shortcut in the menu Navigate -> File...
You can use the following format to output text in the terminal via console.log and the path will be clickable:
at ($FILE_FULL_PATH:$LINE_NUMBER:$SYMBOL_NUMBER)
Example with the full path to the file:
at (/home/ubuntu/project/index.js:12:55)
However, if you're running WebStorm with exact file path's project's folder, you can use the following format:
at (./project/index.js:12:55)
I installed Awesome Console plugin and with this plugin, all files and links in the console and terminal will be highlighted and can be clicked. Source code files will be opened in the IDE, other links with the default viewer/browser for this type.
You can jump to files from the terminal with left click
Just select file path (dblclick) & press "shift" twice (search everywhere) & press "enter"...
I'm helping our Editors to clean up broken links and have been looking for answers to the following:
The Broken Link Report cannot be exported or sorted so it's not very useful (we have many broken links ~2000). Is there a SQL script that I can run to create the same report?
If an Editor fix a link, Rerun the report doesn't seem to take the item off the report. Does she have to Rebuild Link Database every time?
The Links button in the menu is helpful, but it is listing All Versions of referrers. Is there a SQL script to find only the lastest version?
When delete or archive an item and let Sitecore remove broke links, will all the affected items be published?
We are dealing with a large report (~2000 items) due to not maintaining it diligently. The goal is to reduce the number to 100~200 and keep it under control from now on. Any general advice on how to clean up broken links report is appreciated.
For your first (and partly third) questions:
In the Core database you can check what gets executed on the click of the Broken Link Report (the item that defines it is located in : /sitecore/content/Documents and settings/All users/Start menu/Right/Reporting Tools/Scan for Broken Links.
The application that gets started is /Applications/Tools/Broken Links.aspx, so if we look at *webroot*/sitecore/shell/Applications/Tools/Broken Links/Broken links.xml, we can see that the code used for it is Sitecore.Shell.Applications.Tools.BrokenLinks.BrokenLinksForm in the Sitecore.Client assembly.
Using Reflector you can see what it's executing. For your requirements, what I would say would be the easiest is to create your own version of the BrokenLinksForm, possibly simply adding an export functionality on it, or modify the code so it only takes the latest version. From looking at it very quickly I think the code to change (which is actually in the nested Scanner class) is:
...
foreach (ItemLink link in Globals.LinkDatabase.GetBrokenLinks(database))
{
list.Add(link);
}
...
You could possibly check whether the link item is the latest version, possibly by using something like
...
var version = link.GetSourceItem();
if (version.Versions.GetLatestVersion().Version == link.SourceItemVersion)
{
list.Add(link);
}
...
While you're at it you could of course also put in some sorting functionality :-)
It doesn't translate 1-on-1 with the Links button in the menu, but it should give you some pointers in the right direction.
As to your 2nd question: I believe that yes, the Link database does need to be rebuilt. I don't know if Sitecore has a schedule set up by default, but you could create your own agent in the <scheduling> node in the web.config to do this after X time.
Your last question: If you delete or archive an item and have Sitecore remove the broken links the affected items will, by default, not be published. If you have an auto-publish set up it'll show up of course.
I haven't been able to figure this out yet. Atom seems to use spaces as the default indentation mode. I prefer to have tabs instead though. Sublime Text has built in functionality for switching and converting indentation.
Anyone found out how to change the indentation mode of Atom?
Some screenshots from Sublime Text:
See Soft Tabs and Tab Length under Settings > Editor Settings.
To toggle indentation modes quickly you can use Ctrl-Shift-P and search for Editor: Toggle Soft Tabs.
Go to File -> Settings
There are 3 different options here.
Soft Tabs
Tab Length
Tab Type
I did some testing and have come to these conclusions about what each one does.
Soft Tabs - Enabling this means it will use spaces by default (i.e. for new files).
Tab Length - How wide the tab character displays, or how many spaces are inserted for a tab if soft tabs is enabled.
Tab Type - This determines the indentation mode to use for existing files. If you set it to auto it will use the existing indentation (tabs or spaces). If you set it to soft or hard, it will force spaces or tabs regardless of the existing indentation. Best to leave this on auto.
Note: Soft = spaces, hard = tab
Add this to your ~/.atom/config.cson
editor:
tabLength: 4
OS X:
Go to Atom -> prefrences or CMD + ,
Scroll down and select "Tab Length" that you prefer.
You could try going to "Atom > Preferences > Editor" and set Tab length to 4.
This is for mac. For windows you will have to find the appropriate menu.
Adding #Manbroski answer here that worked for me:
try Ctrl-Shift-P Editor: Toggle Soft Tabs
Late to the party, but a clean way to do this on a per-project basis, is to add a .editorconfig file to the root of the project. Saves you from having to change Atom's settings when you're working on several projects simultaneously.
This is a sample of a very basic setup I'm currently using. Works for Atom, ST, etc...
http://editorconfig.org/
# Automatically add new line to end of all files on save.
[*]
insert_final_newline = true
# 2 space indentation for SASS/CSS
[*.{scss,sass,css}]
indent_style = space
indent_size = 2
# Set all JS to tab => space*2
[js/**.js]
indent_style = space
indent_size = 2
This is built into core: See Settings ⇒ Tab Type and choose auto:
When set to "auto", the editor auto-detects the tab type based on the contents of the buffer (it uses the first leading whitespace on a non-comment line), or uses the value of the Soft Tabs config setting if auto-detection fails.
You may also want to take a look at the Auto Detect Indentation package. From the docs:
Automatically detect indentation of opened files. It looks at each opened file and sets file specific tab settings (hard/soft tabs, tab length) based on the content of the file instead of always using the editor defaults.
You might have atom configured to use 4 spaces for tabs but open a rails project which defaults to 2 spaces. Without this package, you would have to change your tabstop settings globally or risk having inconsistent lead spacing in your files.
I just had the same problem, and none of the suggestions above worked. Finally I tried unchecking "Atomic soft tabs" in the Editor Settings menu, which worked.
If you are using the version 1.21.1:
Click on Packages / Settings View / Open
Select "Editor" on the left side panel
Scrool down until you see "Tab Length"
Edit the value. I like to set it to 4.
Now, just close the active tab pane and you are done.
Tab Control gives nice control in a similar manner to that described in your question.
Also nice, for JavaScript developers, is ESLint Tab Length for using ESLint config.
Or if you're using an .editorconfig for defining project-specific indentation rules, there is EditorConfig
If you're using Babel you may also want to make sure to update your "Language Babel" package. For me, even though I had the Tab Length set to 2 in my core editor settings, the Same setting in the Language Babel config was overriding it with 4.
Atom -> Preferences -> Packages -> (Search for Babel) -> Grammar -> Tab Length
Make sure the appropriate Grammar, There's "Babel ES6 Javascript Grammar", "language-babel-extension Grammar" as well as "Regular Expression". You probably want to update all of them to be consistent.
If global tab/spaces indentation settings no longer fit your needs (I.E. you find yourself working with legacy codebases with varied indentation formats, and you need to quickly switch between them, and the auto-detect isn't working) you might try the tab-control plugin, which sort of duplicates the functionality of the menu in your screenshot.
When Atom auto-indent-detection got it hopelessly wrong and refused to let me type a literal Tab character, I eventually found the 'Force-Tab' extension - which gave me back control.
I wanted to keep shift-tab for outdenting, so set ctrl-tab to insert a hard tab. In my keymap I added:
'atom-text-editor':
'ctrl-tab': 'force-tab:insert-actual-tab'
Changing language-specific configuration
I changed the default tab settings, and it still did not impact when I was editing my files, which were Python files. It also did not change when I modified the "*" setting in ~/.atom/config.cson . I don't have a good explanation for either of those.
However, when I added the following to my config.cson, I was able to change the tab in my Python files to 2 spaces:
'.source.python':
editor:
tabLength: 2
Thanks to this resource for the solution: Tab key not respecting tab length
All of the most popular answers on here are all great answers and will turn on spaces for tabs, but they are all missing one thing. How to apply the spaces instead of tabs to existing code.
To do this simply select all the code you want to format, then go to Edit->Lines->Auto Indent and it will fix everything selected.
Alternatively, you can just select all the code you want to format, then use Ctrl Shift P and search for Auto Indent. Just click it in the search results and it will fix everything selected.
Yet another answer: If you are using Atom Beautify note that it has its own settings to determine the "Indent Char".
I just installed the Expression Blend Studio 4 (Trial) from Microsoft.
I have several tutorials telling me to change the style, that I should go to
(Assets) Styles > SketchStyles
There is nothing under that area except a warning(and link)
This category shows all the styles you have created for the current document or application. Additional styles can be found in the online Expression Gallery.
That link gets me no where fast. It basically goes to the home page of Expression Blend.
If you look at this 90 second video.
http://electricbeach.org/files/sketchflow_overview.wmv
At the 30-36 second mark, he is switching the style from squiggly to something more professional.
I'm trying to demo that same thing, which I believe (keep in mind I'm new to this) I am changing FROM the WigglyStyles style to something else.
With
(Assets) Styles > SketchStyles
being empty, I don't know what I'm missing.
...........
So a 2 part question:
How do I get entries to show up under (Assets) Styles > SketchStyles?
(If different from #1), how do I change the overall style from WigglyStyles to something else (and back to WigglyStyles)?
Thanks!
Is misssing the SketchStyles.xaml.
SketchStyles.xaml – this file contain the resource dictionary with number of styles which SketchFlow project makes use of them internally.
Solution:
Create a new solution, a (sketchflow silverlight solution), copy the SketchStyles.xaml from your created solution drag and drop the to the project that doesn't have this file, and press ctrl+shift+B to build it.
hope it helped.
The message was throwing me off.
The little triangle, pointed "to the right" initially, has to be clicked (and then points down) exposing the sub items.
The message:
This category shows all the styles you have created for the current document or application. Additional styles can be found in the online Expression Gallery.
is what was throwing me off. (And I was thinking the same thing as alimbada, that my install went awry).
Once I expand "Styles" (via the small triangle), everything is there.
Ok!! Did I mention I'm a developer, not a designer?? (haha).
Aka, this was just a big "duh" moment.
Thanks.
I just had a quick play with Sketchflow since I have Blend installed and those styles show up fine. Maybe your install went awry?
Using TextMate:
Is it possible to assign a shortcut to preview/refresh the currently edited HTML document in, say, Firefox, without having to first hit Save?
I'm looking for the same functionality as TextMate's built-in Web Preview window, but I'd prefer an external browser instead of TextMate's. (Mainly in order to use a JavaScript console such as Firebug for instance).
Would it be possible to pipe the currently unsaved document through the shell and then preview in Firefox. And if so, is there anyone having a TextMate command for this, willing to share it?
Not trivially. The easiest way would be to write the current file to the temp dir, then launch that file.. but, this would break any relative links (images, scripts, CSS files)
Add a bundle:
Input: Entire Document
Output: Discard
Scope Selector: source.html
And the script:
#!/usr/bin/env python2.5
import os
import sys
import random
import tempfile
import subprocess
fname = os.environ.get("TM_FILEPATH", "Untitled %s.html" % random.randint(100, 1000))
fcontent = sys.stdin.read()
fd, name = tempfile.mkstemp()
print name
open(name, "w+").write(fcontent)
print subprocess.Popen(["open", "-a", "Firefox", name]).communicate()
As I said, that wont work with relative resource links, which is probably a big problem.. Another option is to modify the following line of code, from the exiting "Refresh Browsers" command:
osascript <<'APPLESCRIPT'
tell app "Firefox" to Get URL "JavaScript:window.location.reload();" inside window 1
APPLESCRIPT
Instead of having the javascript reload the page, it could clear it, and write the current document using a series of document.write() calls. The problem with this is you can't guarantee the current document is the one you want to replace.. Windows 1 could have changed to another site etc, especially with tabbed browsing..
Finally, an option that doesn't have a huge drawback: Use version control, particularly one of the "distributed" ones, where you don't have to send your changes to a remote server - git, mercurial, darcs, bazaar etc (all have TextMate integration also)
If your code is in version control, it doesn't matter if you save before previewing, you can also always go back to your last-commited version if you break something and lose the undo buffer.
Here's something that you can use and just replace "Safari" with "Firefox":
http://wiki.macromates.com/Main/Howtos#SafariPreview
Open the Bundle Editor (control + option + command + B)
Scroll to the HTML Bundle and expand the tree
Select "Open Document in Running Browser(s)"
Assign Activation Key Equivalent (shortcut)
Close the bundle editor
I don't think this is possible. You can however enable the 'atomic saves' option so every time you alt tab to Firefox your project is saved.
If you ever find a solution to have a proper Firefox live preview, let us know.
