Sublime Text Not Maximizing Automatically When Opening Files from Nautilus

#1

I am encountering an issue with Sublime Text on Fedora with the GNOME desktop environment and would appreciate any guidance. When I open a text file from Nautilus, Sublime opens the file as expected. However, if Sublime Text is minimized at the time and I open a file from Nautilus, Sublime does not automatically maximize or come to the foreground. Instead, I have to manually restore the window by clicking on its icon in the dash or taskbar.

Are you using X11 or wayland? What version of Sublime Text are you using?

It’s likely this has been fixed in dev build 4177:

  • Linux: Implemented xdg-activation protocol for wayland
