Context links not working in ST4

#1

I updated to ST4 today and now my contextual links that pop up when I hover over a function name no longer work. The box pops up, and I see the file name and path but when I click the link nothing happens. Same result for both definitions + references. Cmd+click also not working to open in new tab.

Any suggestions? Thanks!

The first couple of things to check are to use Preferences: Browse Packages and look in the directory that opens up to see if there’s a folder named Default; if there is, move it to your desktop and restart Sublime.

Failing that, try starting in Safe Mode to see if the problem recreates there, and if it doesn’t the issue is caused by an installed third party package. In that case you want to try and temporarily disable some of the packages you installed to see if you can narrow in on it. Based on where the problem is manifesting, a package that seems to deal with code intelligence may be at issue.

Thanks. I don’t have a Default folder. Whats the simplest way to temporarily disable a package for testing purposes?

If you have Package Control installed, it has a Disable Package command in the command palette. All that does is put the name of the package in the ignored_packages setting in your preferences though.

So you can also open the package control settings from the menu, copy the names of all of the installed packages from the setting there, and paste them into the setting in your preferences and slowly remove them to see when the problem comes back.

Either way, make sure you don’t accidentally remove Vintage from the list (unless you use it as a package) as that will tend to cause you confusion down the road.

actually I found the culprit: Babel, which gives me a warning when i open sublime. I removed it and its ok now. Thank you!
