Honestly, this is a weak point of Zed IMO. I just find it a bit confusing to deal with. I don't know exactly how to get it to jump to the location of a specific block in the multi-buffer view, e.g. a Find in Files view. I double click various places in the UI until it goes to the file and sometimes I have to scroll to where I was at in the multi-buffer view. It's very frustrating.
I think it could be made to work better, but as it is now, it feels cumbersome to work with.
- Latty 1y agoI believe what you want to do is click on the line numbers, which should take you to that exact point in the file.
- jchw 1y agoCould it really be that simple?! Holy shit. It really is that simple. Thank you.
- gwking 1y agoEven after figuring this out for myself I still struggle to do it fluently.
- sisk 1y agoThere's a setting that will allow you to double-click to open a file from the multibuffer which I find more natural: { "double_click_in_multibuffer": "open" }
- throw324678 1y agoyou can also use alt+enter while the cursor is inside of a multi-buffer, and it will open at that point in the file.
- throwaway240403 1y agoTook me a bit to find this, but you can click on a line number in multi-buffer to open that file at that location. I think their default assumption is for you to not use the mouse much. If you're using vim mode g+[space] will open the file where your cursor is. I think it's alt+return in normal mode but either way there's a shortcut hint on the right side of the header for the file your cursor is currently in.
- olejorgenb 1y agoIt also tell you that "alt-enter to jump to the file" in the "header".
