Description mclaassen 2009-11-17 14:52:53 UTC
CTRL-CLICK to goto a method or something in a file that is not open, causes an jump to occur after the auto code folding takes place.

This has been around for a long time and I always think it will be fixed in the next release.  (I am not sure why...)  Anyway, I can understand that this may be difficult, but it is really annoying.  I would generally prefer to collapse certain things by default, but I don't because of "the jump".

Jumping to a source method like this is very useful, and it is nice when it puts it right in the middle of my editor.  What is not as helpful is when the method is right in the middle and then jumps around and I have to hunt for it.

If it is easier, it could be implemented to do the collapsing before it displays at all.  To me, that would be far less annoying than seeing it where I expect and then it jumping near the edge of the screen and having to search for it.
