Sublime 3 Win 7 x64 SideBarEnhancements plugin not working properly

Wondering if anyone can duplicate this issue or if I'm just missing something here:

Win 7 x64

Install Sublime 3 Win x64

Install Package Control

Restart Sublime

Install SideBarEnhancements using Package Control

Restart Sublime

Show the sidebar, right click on a file, I only see the Close option, none of the fancy new stuff.

Solution

  • If you read through the full README to the FAQ, you'll find the following:

    Q: Why the menu is not shown on Open Files?

    • It should be mentioned that the package's context menu is only available for files and folders in a project (section Folders in the side bar), and not on the open files listed at the top of the side bar, due to a limitation of ST.

    So, it's not a bug, just a limitation of the underlying program. Expanding the sidebar API has been requested of the author in a number of forums, we'll just have to wait and see if it happens.
