I must have pressed a wrong combination of keys with my crooked fingers which caused the version control tab to disappear from the sidebar.
Then I found source control tab somewhere in VSCode, dragged it into the sidebar, it shows the changes, however, the icon is completely different and also it doesn't show the number of current changes.
What happened?
In the below screenshot the yellow icon is what I have for SCM now.
Thanks 🤞
I had to use the View: Reset View Locations command to solve this problem in Visual Studio Code version 1.47 (macOS - Catalina).
To do this, just press Cmd+Shift+P (macOS) or Ctrl+Shift+P (Linux/Windows), type workbench.action.resetViewLocations, then press Enter.
Release notes - May 2020 (version 1.46)
As #rioV8 commented - what solved it for me was to right click on the icon and click "Reset Location"
I am not sure what you actually dragged to the activity bar vscode is really modular in this way; hard to say without being there, but you can re-enable SCM button.
Even if you use the short cut to open the source control view (CTRL + SHIFT + G, it will disappear again after you focus out of it (when it's not enabled).
To re-enable it, right-click anywhere on the Activity Bar and select 'Source Control'
From version 1.46 it is now possible to drag and drop panels and views
If a panel/view is not in a spot you want and you want it back in its original place you can Right Click on the panel/view header and choose Reset Location.
Try right clicking on the bar and you should see a menu like the one below
recheck the source control and the icon should appear.
For people who applied the methods above but still could not see the source control panel where you could jump to editted files quickly but only the side bar, here is the way you can fix it:
After you have got the source control panel appeared, right click any available tabs you have inside the panel, such as commits, file history, branches etc. Then make sure you chose the Source Control.
If the "Source Control" panel is not on the side/activity bar or dissapeared for some reason, you check it on the "Explorer" panel. If you don't see it on the Explorer list, you can find it on the top right menu of the explorer panel. You can just check it and then it appears on the Explorer panel list.
Then you can just drag the Source Control panel and drop it on the side/activity bar. It gets back to its original place.
Finally!!!
As of vscode v1.75 you can reset all the view locations from the Layout Control button near the upper right:
I can display a hover popup with ⌘K ⌘I (on Mac). Is there a way to trigger a button on the popup (such as Quick Fix... in the image below) without using the mouse?
I don't know about other actions, but specifically for Quick Fix... there is a keyboard shortchut.
On a Mac it is ⌘.
All,
I have an odd one. I have a menu item that will directly lead to open a sheet (via beginSheet(,completionHandler:).
All is fine when I use it through the menu. But when I use the keyboard shortcut the resulting sheet behave differently.
Menu click behaviour: I show an NSOutline that works nicely. I can click etc.
Keyboard shortcut behaviour: the NSOutline cannot get any mouse events. Clicking doesn't lead to anything.
Interestingly enough, the closing button on the sheet is always working correctly.
Any ideas how I managed to get into this situation?
Many thanks in advance!
I've got an ActiveX Command Button on a WorkSheet. I will be protecting the worksheet and need the button so it cannot be moved or changed, but still want it to be clickable.
How can I achieve this?
Go ahead and protect the sheet. If macros are enabled the button should remain click-able.
There is an addin for Visual Studio called MouseNavi that allows you to use mouse thumb buttons to navigate your history.
Does a similar extension exist for Eclipse?
I don't know of any Eclipse plugin that does this, but assuming you're using Windows:
This one should enable you to do what you want: http://www.highrez.co.uk/downloads/XMouseButtonControl.htm
With that tool you can assign each mouse button a sequence of keys (Alt+Left for example) and because it can be made application specific it won't interfere with other programs where you don't want that mapping.
Alt+Left and Alt+Right to navigate through the latest opened editors.
Also, Alt+L to open up the shortcuts popup, so you can see what's available.
No real mouse navigation control though (not that I know of... at least). Although, should not be very difficult to create one and attach it to the same handlers that deal with the navigation commands.
^Q takes you to last edited location. You can cycle using it. No mouse bindings.
