Hi there

I use the code sidebar to jump around in my function list, but I've noticed that where Komodo thinks a function is is now quite wrong, often by a hundred lines or more.

Is there a way to force it to rescan the file so that this indexing works properly?

Note that the command "Find all functions" correctly identifies them, but it does not update the sidebar. I'm assuming this info is being cached incorrectly somewhere, right?

Hi Mike,

This is with Komodo IDE correct?

The problem you describe sounds like a bug. It could be caused by a number of factors, but the best indication for problems is the Komodo log files:

Komodo should be automatically scanning the file whenever it is opened/saved, which then updates the code browser.

I'd recommend logging a bug on this at:
http://bugs.activestate.com/enter_bug.cgi?product=komodo
and specify the language you are editing when this occurs, attach any relevant Komodo log files and if this is reproducible, include a sample of the text causing the problem.

Thanks,
Todd
