Usually I am working alone, but now I have a new colleague, so we need to work together.
Unfortunately we suffer the lack of git, so because of certain circumstance we need to work directly on FTP.
I am using Netbeans, but I recommended to her the PhpDesigner, because I know, it is working with files directly on the remote server, not like Netbeans what is make a local copy of the file.
When I edit a file, I tell it to her, so she close the file, and open it again, and my changes are appears.
I there any way to not close the file, just "refresh" it (download from server)?
No, you can't in phpDesigner, I've tried many ways but is not possible. You can do it in Npp.
