Is there a way to edit source file in child project?

Post by Sharpras »

When I'm in a topic linked to a global source project, is there an easy way to open the source file and edit it?
I have had two Flare Apps open to do this. But maybe there's a better way.

You can open a file outside of the project with File > Open. The Open screen is initially filtered to only show Flare Project files (*.flprj). You can switch that to All Files (*.*) and open the file. If you open a topic in another project, there will be a warning at the top of the editor: "The file you are editing exists outside of the current project." But you can still edit and save the file.
