Customizing Sublime Text 2's Multi Pane Workflow
- struppi 14y agoI saw this exact same "trick" in an awesome video tutorial about ST2 yesterday - You should check it out for more great tips: https://tutsplus.com/course/improve-workflow-in-sublime-text-2/ https://tutsplus.com/course/improve-workflow-in-sublime-text...

- hayksaakian 14y agoInteresting point, but I personally use multipanes differently. If I'm in a rails app I'll up have for instance, a model or some other file that's my primary focus in pane 1 and a secondary related file in pane 2 (gem file, routes, or the related views or controller)
- SeanDav 14y agoI was pretty impressed by Sublime Text 2 but cannot use it for 1 very simple reason, it has no ability to prevent auto updating of loaded files. Unlike for example Notepad++ which has the ability to prompt before updating a loaded file with any changes made outside the editor. For my specific work, this is a deal breaker and I hope a toggle gets added at some point.
- JonnieCache 14y agoIt prompts me only if I have unsaved changes in the file.
- ibisum 14y agoSame here .. so how is this a problem, then?
- nicholassmith 14y agoOddly it looks like there was a 'autoReloadChanged' option but it's in the ST1 documentation, just tried it and it doesn't seem to work now. Might be worth giving them a gentle prod and ask them to reenable it.
- SeanDav 14y agoYes, I noticed that too and tried it, along with a few other things as well. Nothing worked. I also found a few postings on the Sublime Text forums, asking about the same thing and the consensus seems to be it is not possible in ST2, not even as an add-on because the API does not expose the functionality needed.
- nicholassmith 14y agoHopefully they'll pick that up and bring it back in.

- australis 14y agoI have similar experiences with the multi-pane layout - powerful, but cumbersome to micromanage (mainly because the target area for a mouse re-size is so small). For some reason I find the Ctrl+Shift+{#} keyboard shortcut awkward to use as well, but it might just be the way I rest my hand on the keyboard. Anyway, one thing I've though would help would be something like; a middle-click on the scrollbar invokes the resize function between the adjacent panes (as if left-clicking on the resize target area).

- rrreese 14y agoFrom the description: "Origami is a new way of thinking about panes in Sublime Text: you tell Sublime Text where you want a new pane, and it makes one for you. Ordinarily one uses the commands under View>Layout, or if one is quite intrepid a custom keyboard shortcut can be made to give a specific layout, but both of these solutions were unsatisfactory to me. Perhaps they were to you too! That's what this plugin is for."
