2 things come to mind:

        1. Do you specifically
include the header file you are trying to F3 to in the source file?

        2. If the source
and header files are located in different folders in your project, are
your include
           paths
set up? 

Our current framework doesn't handle cases where files
are not included directly as of now. This is on the to do
list for 3.0 (Bug 49783).
