    I don’t know if this is a MyEclipes setting or an Eclipse setting (hopefully it’s at least a setting) but I hope someone my knows what I’m talkin’ about 😆

    It seems that recently, after upgrading to 4.1, the Java Editor will only show the java element selected in the Outline view (i.e. if you select a method, only that method shows up in the editor), rather than merely jumping to that location within the document and allowing you to scroll through the document from that location.
    Instead you must select the top-level (the Class element itself) element in order to see the whole document.
    Does anyone know if there is a setting to get to go back to just jumping to the location of the document rather than just displaying the element?

    Jonny,

    If you look at the Eclipse toolbar, you will notice a toggle button which says “Show Source of Selected Element Only”. Can you see if that has been turned on by accident?

    Best,
    Brian.

    Thank You!
    I couldn’t even come up with a good query for the help search. I knew it had to be some setting somewhere, but for the life of me I couldn’t find it .
    It may nice to have that button moved to the Outline toolbar 🙂

    Andrew,

    I know what you mean – always difficult looking for solutions to such issues.

    That particular button would also work when you invoke the quick outline (Ctrl + O) from the Java editor itself, so it isn’t specific to the outline view.
    But if you have some ideas – feel free to hit Eclipse with a feature request or bug report 😉

    Best,
    Brian.
