re #93643

  • trigger quick outline where it cannot be triggered
  • see the message below, the last part reads weird

How about

  • The active text editor does not provide [symbols|symbol information|outline information]
  • To go to a symbol, open a text editor with symbol information first

* To go to a symbol, open a text editor with symbol information first

If this option is preferred I suggest a slight variation:

  • To go to a symbol, first open a text editor with symbol information.

We actually need 2 messages:

  • no editor or no text editor open
  • text editor open but no symbol information

I went with:

  • To go to a symbol, first open a text editor with symbol information.
  • The active text editor does not provide symbol information.

I find the new message missing some directions to where/how to provide some symbol information. Finally I figure out that I have to enable the c/cpp extension for the workspace.
