  1. Start Brackets
  2. Open up a fairly large project in the file tree (e.g. Brackets)
  3. Switch out of the app and switch back in

Result: You see the file tree appear to change its layout briefly, then change it back. This is probably due to the new auto refresh code that got checked in at the beginning of the sprint.

Marking medium priority and sprint 6 since it's a regression and looks bad. We might want to consider turning off the auto refresh code for now since Randy's out and it wasn't an official user story for this sprint anyway.

I think the auto-refresh code would be relatively simple to disable (if we wanted to) just by commenting out the ProjectManager.reloadProject() in brackets.js. See the diff in pull #470.

FWIW, you also lose your scroll position when it reloads (get set back to the top).

I'm in favor of turning off the auto-refresh for now, and adding proper support when we have file/directory watchers.
