Opening resources in the Navigator

Using the Navigator there are several ways to open an editor. 

1. In the Navigator select the file JanesFile.txt

2. To open an editor on the file choose one of the following approaches:

   • To edit a resource using the default editor for that resource you can either double click on the resource (in the Navigator), or select the resource and choose Open from its popup menu. 

   • If you want to use a specific editor to edit the resource, start by selecting the resource in the Navigator, and choose the Open With option from the popup menu.

   The Workbench remembers the last editor that you used for editing a specific file. This makes it easier to use the same editor down the road.

You can configure the default editors using  Window > Preferences > Workbench > File Associations.
