RE: [mylar-dev] Focus On Task

Please note that this question is best directed to the newsgroup (linked from: http://www.eclipse.org/mylar).

The idea behind the Focus button is to show only the relevant elements no matter what packages or projects they are in. Relevance is determined by your interaction, i.e., your selections and edits of those elements.

Eclipse already has great facilities for helping you focus on structural (rather than usage-based) slices of your system. For example, to focus on a single package use the “Go Into” action on that package. Note that you will still be able to use Mylar’s Focus button in conjunction with the “Go Into” mechanism.

Subject: [mylar-dev] Focus On Task

I have a question from one of the users:

"... have found the Focus On Task feature a pain to use. It would however be useful to me if, when you are working on a file, the Focus On Task shows all file in the package you are working on.

Typically, I work on files in a package because they are related to each other. When the Focus on Task feature is on, it hides ALL files in the package except the ones I am currently editing.

Is there an option to change this to show all the files in the package?"
