Just to re-focus on the original topic of this thread: Ability to switch from the currently open file in XMLMind XML Editor to the same file in the parent folder in Finder.NetBeans 9, which I believe is a javabased application, does have two variants of the requested feature. See the attached screenshots. The first screenshot shows that the Tools menu of NetBeans 9 has a "Show in Finder" submenu. The second screenshot demonstrates that NetBeans has the following switch-to-folder-in-Finder feature: 1. Hold down the logo key (the Command key on mac) 2. While the logo key is pressed, click on the title field of the window (despite the fact that the title field does not reflect the file name of the file, btw ...), 3. You will then get a small file path menu where you can select any of the parent folders of the current file NeatBeans also have another useful feature that can used as a workaround - the menu command "Copy filepath": By copying the file path, one can switch to Finder by running the command * open /Users/Username/folder in the terminal. PS: I notice as well that Netbeans 9 has the same bug as XMLmind XML Editor with regards to ability to open files via double clicks in the Finder.
Thank you for this info. It indeed gives us ideas about how your RFE could be implemented.
