Show the "just opened" file when another file has changed
-
I’m using Notepad++ v6.9.2 on Windows.
Suppose I have 2 files, a.txt and b.txt. Through windows explorer I open a.txt, then notepad++ opens in a “a.txt” tab.
Now I open a.txt on another editor and change some text on it and save. (Notepadd++ is not yet on foreground)
Now I go to windows explorer and open b.txt, notepad go to foreground and opens in “a.txt” tab asking me if I want to update the file contents, i answer “yes”, and it stays on “a.txt”, not on “b.txt” which is the file i just opened.
AFAIK in previous versions of Notepad++, after answering all the “update content” questions, it showed the just opened file (“b.txt” on the example). This must be the correct behaviour.
