Eclipse - easy way to access right-clickable properties from Package Explorer?


I have this workflow problem in Eclipse (Java) in which there are of course hundreds of files in my package explorer. I know I can use Ctrl+R to open a file which is great - however from the tab I can't right click and do things like Compare With, Team > Commit and dozens of other useful options I need. Which leads to me browsing for the file in the package explorer - it's not like the file appears in package explorer when I Ctrl+R it - which is an annoying workflow problem.

What is the solution for this?


Solution

  • Discovered package explorer actually has a yellow left/right arrow looking button that will open the current file in package explorer. This is the feature I was looking for.
