I do not see sidebar-treeview... i am stucked

[falistra]

Hi,
I have successfully installed (apparently) vscode-tree-view,
but when i open (i.e.) a json file or a python file,
I do not see nothing : no tree view appears as shown in yours screenshots.
Where am i wrong?
Thanks you for your help.

Had you found a way to "start" the extension?

Oddly enough when I first tried this extension a very long time ago... no dice... don't remember which release...

So, when I got notified about your comment, I revisited it and this time it actually showed up on the sidebar (there's a new icon looking like <>)

Either download the vsix or search for File Tree View in the marketplace

@just-Addict , thank you for your reply. Yes, I see the <>, but there is nothing on the panel.
Maybe I'm confused and is not the extension I was expecting.
What I'm looking is something similar to https://github.com/oleg-shilo/codemap.vscode

@juanbretti, sorry for the delayed reply, it seems I've missed the notification about the issue. There seems to be an issue popping up after recent updates, for complaints when the "position" setting is set to explorer instead of sidebar (the < > sidebar icon). I will try to find some time and investigate the possible cause of the issue, as there are a couple of feature requests popping up in regards to JS support and I've personally experienced some of them.

Also, for what language are you experiencing the issue?

[juanbretti]

@DaGhostman , thank you very much for replying back.
I'm using Python. I'm using .py files (not trying to make it work with .ipynb).

[DaGhostman]

Hmm... I personally don't write much python but I will look into it. Does the issue happen sporadically or regardless of the PY file, because I might need some sort of sample code in order to troubleshoot the issue, as iirc the python parser was kinda outdated when I introduced support for the language, so that might be related

[juanbretti]

@DaGhostman , this short or longer? Let me know.

Hmmm, apparently I was subscribed to an issue that I am totally not interested in, but which led me to this repo.

Didn't have the extension installed anymore because it didn't work for me... gotten curious I installed it again, and it still doesn't work for me...

When I went into Settings, I noticed a dropdown which allows me to choose where to show the panel. If I choose sidebar it shows, but doesn't work, if I choose Explorer, it disappears from the sidebar but also does not show up in the Explorer panel...
