AW: Link editor window with source tree

Hi Roman and Jiri,

Thanks for the hint with the shortcut and the menu item. ...and in Netbeans 4.1 this works fine but when trying the same with the latest 4.2 development built both methods do not work: I get the message the "The document node could not be found in the projects tab" even though I can manually navigate through the tree to that file in the Projects window.

But still - don't you think that this functionality would be easier to access if there was a button? I think that it could be easily added to the left to the "Back" button in the button panel of the editor window...

Bye,
Holger

Hi,

there's a similar feature, try to press Ctrl-Shift-1. It opens the 
current file in Projects View. Similary works Ctrl-2 or Ctrl-3.
