wondering if I could have the same behavior as Brackets like it previews the code on the right side but only opens the file if we do some edits.
Helpful when I'm just going through the files and not really changing anything but then at the end I've to close all.
Is there a setting in web storm that can help achieve the same behavior like brackets
Currently I may only suggest to use View | Quick Definition to preview file content instead of opening (has to be invoked for each file, which is possibly not what you are willing to do).
Other than that: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-130918 -- star/vote/comment to get notified on progress.
P.S.
As stated in this comment they seems to worked on something like that already but quite possibly did not finished it for IDEA v14 release: in build 138.2502 there was an option to open file in "preview panel" first (and if satisfied -- move to editor) instead of opening in editor straight away. But it still a bit different to what Sublime does.

I closed my AWS console after the session ended.
And I reopened it and found every file in every directory became one line like below.
I think this is about a format setting problem or something.
How can I fix it
{"filter":false,"title":"guess.feature","tooltip":"/work/hw-sinatra-saas-hangperson/features/guess.feature","undoManager":{"mark":-1,"position":-1,"stack":[]},"ace":{"folds":[],"scrolltop":0,"scrollleft":0,"selection":{"start":{"row":15,"column":18},"end":{"row":15,"column":18},"isBackwards":false},"options":{"guessTabSize":true,"useWrapMode":false,"wrapToView":true},"firstLineState":0},"timestamp":1556672503420,"hash":"7c932328fb87b63ff3d5362a56f39ca0bd38857a"}
The format of the text you've put above is known as JSON. It looks like your JSON has been consolidated to a one liner. There are plenty of free tools to format your JSON, infact most IDE's come with the feature to do it (and if not, there's always a plugin for it!). For now, you can use an online formatter: https://jsonformatter.curiousconcept.com/
Just remember to use the copy button and not try copy paste it yourself to avoid ruining the format due to the collapse/expand buttons.
I am a new programmer and I am trying to use the terminal on my Mac to compile and run the C++ code I write using the Sublime text editor.
I am able to get my code to run using the terminal, however, whenever I make changes to my code on sublime and then re-compile it on my terminal, my terminal doesn't recognize my changes and keeps on running my original code.
Does anyone know what might be happening?
Thank you so much!
I can think of two possibilities that spring immediately to mind. If you're changing your code in the editor, and that's not being reflected in the compilation, then it's likely to be one of the following. Either:
you're not saving the file in the location you think you are; or
you're not saving the file at all.
The easiest way to tell if one of these is the case is to introduce an error into your code(a), like:
int my hovercraft = full of eels;
and make sure the compiler complains about it.
If you're not saving it at all, do so. If you're saving it in the wrong place, you can usually find out where just by doing a Save As and seeing where the default location is.
If you're annoyed that you have to save, and that computers should just "work"(b), Sublime Text has an auto-save feature that may come in handy, courtesy of one Lucy Bain. Instructions (paraphrased) are duplicated here in case that site ever disappears:
Open Sublime
Find Settings and edit the user window (under Sublime Text 2 > Preferences for Mac, just Preferences for Windows).
Add the line "save_on_focus_lost": true.
Save and close the file.
At that point, whenever you click away from a particular file, it should save it.
(a) Some developers seem to have little trouble doing this without even trying :-)
(b) A not unreasonable expectation for a Mac user :-)
Does anyone know of a plugin where I can get the breadcrumbs of a file I am working on.
Lets say I am working on app/controllers/admin/crs/abc, So I can see this info at the top or start of the window.
I am using ember and due to pod structure its hard to know which file I am working as all of them have different folders but same names.
Simply edit your user preferences and add
"show_full_path": true
and the full path of the file will appear in Sublime's titlebar when the file is active.
Compare with the setting (OS X):
to without it:
I know this is an old question but still, I think this is an interesting Package that not many people know of.
On top of #mattdmo answer, you might even want to check the breadcrumbs for a nested structure (pretty much like you'd do in VS Code): just install Breadcrumbs for Sublime Text. Not as cool, but it works ok.
Is there a way to see generated javascript all the time?
Of course there's a 'Preview compiled coffescript' command that will open modal window.
not exactly the thing I'm looking for.
Also you always can split window vertically and have both .coffee and .js opened. But then, it won't change automatically when you navigate to a different coffeescript file.
And I'm hoping to have a side panel that maybe supports source maps too.
Possible?
No, but you can file a feature request here:

It might be useful for other languages too: TypeScript, Less, Sass, etc
how do we rename .xaml and .cs files?
would like to be able to keep development in synch with the original sketchflow. i.e. sketchflow has features such as the ability to collect client feedback on a per screen basis, etc.
... I kind of answered my own question here, so I'll post it as a follow up. Asked the original question 9 hours ago on the MS site without response... still trying to work out where the best place is to talk to the community, so sorry for the duplicate.
THE ANSWER (IS THERE A BETTER ONE?)
Context: Sketchflow is a prototyping tool. In large teams possibly you want to keep the prototype seperate from the finished version, or there's a large prototyping phase.
My view is that I really like Sketchflow. It's one of the coolest things I've seen for a while (well done Microsoft).
... so for me, I want the prototype to become a the finished product. I want the designers to step in and make transitions whenever they want. I want the designers to kick the process off, and the developers to put in the detail. I'd like our customers to be able to post feedback at any time during the build process. btw: get your developers to check out MVVM. It's very cool.
My bet is that the feedback could get lost if you make a breaking change (a file rename) -- so just beware of that. That wont be a problem for us. We'll get our file names to make sense and then mostly leave it alone. Of course MS could fix this this by creating a globally unique id (Guid) for each screen that is created. Perhaps they've done this already. If someone from MS reads this, please put this on your requested features list.
THE ANSWER:
So here is the answer that works for me:
don't try to hand-edit the xaml / cs, as all the cross referencing that you might be doing with behaviors will break if you aren't really careful. Typical files that need to be modified: .csproj, Sketch.Flow, xxxx.xaml, and xxxx.cs.
To auto do it, download a tool like Ultraedit. Alternatively, you might be able to just use VS 2010 (untested).
Steps with ultraedit:
(BACKUP YOUR PROJECT FIRST)
Search/Replace In Files...
Find in files... "Screen_1_19"
Replace with... "Welcome"
In Files/Types... "."
Directory...
Match Whole Word Only
Hit "Start"
follow the prompts
rename the files (.xaml & .cs) to be Welcome.???? (where ???? is .xaml or .cs) . Since I use SVN, this step gets done for me in one step (no big deal).
If using VS2010 for steps 1 through 8, be careful do longer string replacements first e.g. Screen_1_19 before Screen_1. I think VS treats _ as a word break. On ultraedit you'll be fine.
If there's interest, in the spare time that I don't currently have, I could release a quick tool to do this on codeplex.
** note: because we are working with XML and XML is very particular about being correct, I close expression blend down, and then reopen it again after the replace/rename to see if I was successful + my screen map still has all the flow lines still drawn in.
answer is above in the body of the question.
