FileZilla Opens Multiple Windows When Viewing/Editing Multiple Files

#1

When I View/Edit a file using FileZilla, It opens a new window every time I View/Edit a file.

Please help.

If you’re using MacOS, it may help to change the value of this setting, which applies only to OS X and defaults to true:

    // OS X only: When files are opened from finder, or by dragging onto the
    // dock icon, this controls if a new window is created or not.
    "open_files_in_new_window": true,

If you’re on Linux or Windows (or on MacOS but that setting doesn’t help) then likely the command that FileZilla is using to open files in Sublime is telling it specifically to create a new window every time. How you would go about fixing that depends on the operating system that you’re using, unless FileZilla has it’s own configuration option for this and doesn’t rely on the underlying OS to do it.

If you mean the first part, you can open the preferences on MacOS by selecting Sublime Text > Preferences > Settings from the main menu. That’s just Preferences > Settings on other operating systems, but in that case the setting won’t help you because it’s specific to MacOS due to Apple user interface standards.

If you mean the second part, I’m not sure because I don’t use FileZilla myself, so I’m not sure how it works.
