Hi,
How can I open a file that is not in the workspace? For example, say it
is on my desktop, and I just want to open the file and perhaps make a
few edits to it (or maybe even just view it), without creating a project
and adding the file to my workspace.
Thanks,
Tim

This works in latest 3.3 builds.

No Check bugzilla for the feature request.
