Not jump to file in Aptana Studio 3 - aptana

I've been using Aptana Studio 3 for awhile now and I like it much better than Dreamweaver. However, one quirk that's starting to annoying is that if I have a few scripts/documents open from my project, when I click on one of the open tabs the project explorer automatically jumps and selects that file in the list.
This is very annoying when trying to view a list of files in a directory and also trying to type in a script/document that is located in another directory.
So my question is: How do I get Aptana Studio 3 to not automatically jump to a file like that?
Thanks.

I don't know why this post was voted down. I think people don't like to actually read the FAQ.
I believe your problem is the 'Link with Editor' option in the Project Explorer. You can find it under the little arrow at the top right of the Project Explorer. Make sure it is turned off.

Atom - unable to click on some files on the left panel

I have a problem. I don't know if I click some keybinding by any accident but I can't open most of the files by clicking on a project file tree in the left panel. Only 2 files are 'active' that I can click on them. Whichever other file I click on, the highlight selector goes back to one of those 2 files. Any idea what I'm doing? Quick googling suggested that it might have something to do with working sets in nuclide but I can't seem to be able to switch it off. so no sure if it's related to that.
The problem only started a few days ago.
Thanks

Can't re-open project files sidebar anymore in Atom Editor

Sorry if this is the wrong place to answer but I found no other community which could help me with this. I accidentally closed the left-sidebar that shows the currently open project and it's files. Not sure what it's called, maybe navigation, folder view, either way, I tried pressing nearly every key combination to no results. I tried searching in the command palette for something that looked like "open project sidebar" but nothing. Now I'm stuck having no idea how to restore my primary navigation means when working with Atom. I tried opening multiple projects but I just get a black screen without the project sidebar, like it was hidden.
Any ideas?
I'm talking about this sidebar:
It is called "Tree-View".
You should be able to enable it via command pallete or ctrl + ,
It depends on your OS. On Mac OS X, it's CMD-\ (Command-Backslash) to toggle it. The option located on the View menu, called Toggle Tree View (the last menu option).

Aptana Studio 3 Not Showing Themes

So I recently moved all of the files that I want to keep onto a secondary hard drive in my laptop. This also included the workspace I use for Aptana Studio 3. As a result, there was a particular file that I had to delete and let the program recreate just to get the program to start up as well as re-import the projects I was working with.
The issue now, though, is that I cannot change or even bring up the themes in the preferences editor. When I first go to Window > Preferences > Aptana Studio > Themes, I get a message that reads:
The currently displayed page contains invalid values.
and doesn't show anything. On the rare occurrences that I AM able to get that particular window to show up, there's nothing there except an empty drop down menu. Anyone have any ideas on how to correct this? Thanks.
P.S. YES, I have Googled it and hence, since I didn't find anything, I'm asking the question here.
got this answer from another post...
I got the same problem. After updating Aptana to 3.5, whenever I looked at the themes settings, it crashed down saying.
"the currently displayed page contains invalid values"
Probably the new update has its own bugs for some reason.
the only way to fix the problem is to downgrade the version of Aptana studio.
https://wiki.appcelerator.org/display/tis/Reverting+to+a+Previous+Version#RevertingtoaPreviousVersion-AptanaStudio3.4.1
just Download 3.4.1 version and all things gonna be ok.
Add Eclipse Themes from http://eclipsecolorthemes.org/?view=plugin
Details to add themes on this post.
Edit: This does not seem to work :( only the bg changes. I never noticed that the font colors never changed. Have to wait for patches I guess. Don't want to downgrade though :-|

Xcode 4 - Analyze issues won't show in editor

Running Analyze in Xcode 4.0.2 shows issues in the Issue Navigator. Clicking on an issue makes the appropriate file appear in the Editor pane, but nowhere does it show where in the code the issue occurs as I am used to from Xcode 3.x. Does anyone know how I can turn on this feature?
A couple of tips:
First, if you're looking for the view where Xcode annotates the project with arrows, bear in mind that you may need to expand the top-level analyser result in Xcode's Issue navigator and click the second-level issue in order to see those - see screenshots.
Screenshot 1: top-level issue selected - no arrows
Screenshot 2: second-level issue selected - arrows!
Second tip: if that stuff isn't working, try cleaning the project's build products folder. Hold down the Option (alt) key and choose Clean Build Folder... from the Product menu. (You need to hold down the Option key, otherwise you won't see that menu option.)
I've seen this happen before sometimes. I believe it's a bug in Xcode. Restart Xcode and try again.
One note. I'm seeing this for files that are referenced outside the current project. I currently have a library in which the files with missing annotations live and simply added them to my current project without copying them. Haven't done the project dependency setup yet, so if you're referring to files outside your project that could be why. (I opened the library project, did an analyze and the annotations showed up.)
Woohoo, I've nailed it! At least for me. I've been struggling with this problem for about 2 hours now, trying out all the things suggested here and more (Xcode 4.0.2, Snow Leopard). Bizarre thing was I had one file where the warning were correctly showing in the editor. Then I noticed the difference to all other files; in the File Inspector pane the location was specified as "Relative to Project" (warnings show correctly in the editor), all the other project files were "Relative to Group" (warnings not showing in the editor).
I took one of the problem files, switched it's location to "Relative to Project", reanalyzed and bingo! I've see it's warnings in the editor.
I guess this ties in a bit with David Goodine's answer refering to files outside the project.

Xcode 4 project opens, then hides folders

I just upgraded to Xcode 4, and I'm trying to open a project I created with the previous Xcode, but when I open it, after about 1 second, it hides all the folders and inline projects in the project navigator, and only shows the "resources" folder. Strange behavior. I can compile and run, but I can't edit my files from xcode any more.
Anyone else see this?
#haider I had the same issue with XCode 4.3, tried the above recipe, but it did not work for me. Here is the correct answer to prevent this from happening and get it to work right:
There's a tiny row of icons to the left of the search box under the left hand nav. The first of these is a '+' (to add a file). The icons following the add-a-file icon are actually filters that can be toggled on and off. The first of these looks like a clock, and is a filter to show only-recently-modified files, the second to show files-with-source-control status and so on. I must have accidentally picked the first icon after the '+' (show only recently-modified files) and therefore had the problem. The XCode UI preserves that pick even when you close the project so closing and re-opening does not alleviate the situation.
Don't know why it fixed, but it did. After closing down xcode and restarting several times, it ended up working ok again. Strange
