in the new version of MonoDevelop sometimes i cannot go from script to another, i can open the script from the solutions window but when i click on it (tab) it doesn’t show up, also when i do Ctrl+tab i can navigate between scripts,
anyone else having this problem ?
also there is another annoying thing, it’s when i do text formatting (ctrl+shift+f) it do format the text but also auto-navigate in the script, it make the line where the cursor is the first line in the view sheet (i hope i explain it right )
i know that this is not a real problem but i really don’t like it, anyone knows how to get rid of it ?
I’m also seeing the same problem. The tab bar becomes completely unresponsive to mouse input.
This seems to happen after expanding the solution panel when it is set to autohide. If I dock the solution panel (I have it on the left if that matters) this doesn’t seem to happen anymore.
This same problem was happening to me also, I’m desperately looking for an alternative (US) editor. Not to tell that, at least when coding in US, none of the ‘pads’ actually works.
Same problem here. Most frustrating issue I’ve yet had to deal with, in MonoDevelop. I was fine until I found, every 30 minutes or so, that I would have to restart the whole editor. That might not be so bad if it didn’t also lose the ordering of all the tabs! (and sometimes also which tabs are even open–depending on some factor in saving that I’m not sure of)
It’s wasted many minutes of my time now, and I’m looking for another solution, at least until this issue is fixed. (looking into UnityVS, Script Inspector, Xamarin Studio, etc.)
sorry to revive a dead thread, but did anybody find a fix for this? thinking about going back to it from VS2013 for the shader syntax highlighting (NShader is decent but cant figure out how to change the colors)
Chiming in with the same problem here. It’s especially frustrating cause it seems to occur randomly, sometimes I can click on a tab and it’ll switch, other times I get nothing.
Just make sure you have only one tab open per file. I am not sure how it happens but sometimes MonoDevelop opens 2 tabs for the same file and that is when switching between tabs stops working.
SOLUTION: Just close a duplicate and everything will go back to normal. Might want to restart Mono to be sure.
Hope it helps. I had that a lot with Unity 4.6 but 5.0 seems to be fine so far (fingers crossed).
Is there a solution to this?? I don’t have multiple tabs of the same file opened, but I have this issue too. Whenever I click Solutions tab and return to editor, I can’t switch between scripts using mouse! Only way is to do ctrl+tab or restart MonoDevelop. Just seeing now that the issue is there for the past 2 years! That kind of sucks!
VS is the best option for debugging. For plain coding, especially for noobs, I suggest using SublimeText or NP++, with no plugins like autocompletion. That way we will search and learn the code that we gonna type. Suggested to me and it was a big help.
