sublimetext keyboard shortcut to view recent files - sublimetext3

Is there any keyboard shortcut in SublimeText which I can use or map to bring down the open files list as shown in the screenshot below.
I know I can view it on the sidebar on the left hand side, but I'm looking for a keyboard shortcut to bring the dropdown.

You can do "Ctrl+P" for that. That will work on Ubuntu at least. It will show you the list of recently opened files along with the search box to navigate to any other file.

What do I do to make Sublime text stop ignoring filenames that start with a dot

I am using Sublime Text editor and I need to change the settings for Sublime 3 to open files that start with a dot like .gitignore. Please let me know where in the settings I need to make the change. I am using Windows OS fyi.
This isn't a Sublime-specific option, but an operating system one, as the OS determines what is displayed in file dialogs as well as the file system explorer. To set the option on Windows, first open Windows Explorer and navigate to the folder containing the dotfile you want to view. Then, in the View tab, click the Options button on the far right, then select Change folder and search options.
You can also find Options under the File menu.
The Options window will now pop up. Select the View tab, then select the option Show hidden files, folders, and drives. Next, click on the Apply to Folders button at the top.
Similar options are also available on macOS and Linux.

Switch to tab by file name in text editor

I have multiple files open in different tabs in sublime text 3. Is there a way to switch to a tab by the name of the file that's open in it? If there's a different text editor that supports this, it'll be equally helpful. Thank you!
If you open the Goto Anything popup menu by hitting CtrlP, the currently opened files will be listed at the top.
You can also select file tabs at different positions in the tab bar by using Alt#, where # is the file's position - Alt1 for the first file on the left, Alt2 for the second from left, and so on. You can use CtrlPgUp/CtrlPgDn to navigate through the tabs in order, and CtrlTab/CtrlShiftTab to navigate through the stack of recently focused tabs.
All of these options are available under the Goto → Switch File menu. Some of the keyboard shortcuts may be different on macOS.
CudaText editor (free) has the command "Find tab by title" in the plugin CudaExt. Command shows menu with the filter field. To install the plugin: "Plugins / Addon manager / Install".

Sublime Text 3: how do you configure the display and/or sorting of the Window menu?

If you open a couple folders in Sublime Text 3, you'll see entries for each folder added to the Window menu. It appears that the default format of each entry on the menu is:
(active-filename) - (foldername)
The list on the Window menu is sorted alphabetically starting with (active-filename). Whenever you select a file to work on, the (active-filename) part of the entry changes, and the list reorders itself. If you have a dozen Windows open, the position of a given window in the list will change all the time as you work with files. This makes it hard to find a window when repeatedly switching between Windows.
Is there a way to configure Sublime Text 3 to display only the folder name in the list on the Windows menu? Alternatively, is there a way to configure it to sort on folder name and not on the ever-changing "active" filename?
Unfortunately there open issues around this but no attention form the SublimeText Team yet

Keyboard shortcut for moving tabs in SublimeText3

Every time I open a new tab in SublimeText I have to take my hands off the keyboard and use the mouse to move the newly opened tab to the desired position among the existing tabs...
Surely there must be a keyboard shortcut for moving SublimeText Tabs left and/or right?
Please say yes...
Not by default unfortunately, but there are two awesome things about Sublime to be aware of:
This plugin https://github.com/SublimeText/MoveTab will let you move tabs with CTRL + Shift + page up/down
You can go to any tab by pressing ctrl+p and typing the name of the tab, so if your tabs are disorganized, you don't have to visually search for them or organize them as long as you know the name of the file you want (or a substring of it if it's unique enough)
It seems as if there are no shortcuts to do this.
You can see all actions and their shortcuts in the command palette (Ctrl+p on Windows). There is no such action as Move this tab to the left.
The good news, however, is that there is a plugin that does exactly this:
https://github.com/SublimeText/MoveTab
You can install it using Package Control.

Shortcut for deleting a line in dreamweaver?

What is the shortcut for deleting the current line where the cursor positioned.
ex: eclipse have crtl+d
To delete line(s)
Mac: Command+Shift+D
Windows: Ctrl+Shift+D

There are no direct shortcuts as far as I know but here is a list of commands for dreamweaver.
http://cpaoffers.com/design/dw-shortcuts.php
My typical method to do this is to hit the home > shift+end > del.
Or you could try shift+up or shift+down to select the line above or below and then hit delete.
Danilo Celic's answer helped me with CS6, just use the second one. Although it's in Japanese, just install and use it.
If you want to know more: Then, find the installed files in your own
C:\Users\[your user name]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS6\[your CS6 language]\Configuration\Commands
There you can open the just-installed files and check them. The comments are in Japanese. The code are in Javascript and are easy to read.
There are 5 commands in that file. To use only the "Delete line" function: In CS6, open history panel, go to design mode, do any action like press a key, right click on that action from history panel and record that action. Then you can find the record action in the Commands folder mentioned above, and then you can copy the javascript from the downloaded one into your own recorded action file.
I've seen two extensions that add the delete line functionality:
http://xtnd.us/dreamweaver/codeextras
http://yoropan.com/en/archives/544
I haven't used either one. I've been told that the first one may not work in Dreamweaver CS6, no idea about the other one. once installed, you should be able to add a keyboard shortcut (Edit -> Preferences, Dreamweaver -> Preferences on Mac) for functionality that you're looking for.
You can add a custom keyboard shortcut for deleting lines in Dreamweaver.
Dreamweaver uses Brackets for its text editor, and this is what handles the Delete Line command, not the traditional Menu system for rebinding most other Dreamweaver commands.
Create a Brackets keyboard shortcut configuration file.
Windows: %APPDATA%\Adobe\Dreamweaver CC 2019\en_US\Configuration\Brackets\keymap.json
Mac OS: ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe Dreamweaver CC 2019/en_US/Configuration/Brackets/keymap.json (untested)
Create an override in this file, according to the Brackets User Key Bindings JSON Data Format. Make sure you use the - separator between key names, not +.
{
"overrides": {
"Ctrl-E": "edit.deletelines"
}
}
Rebind any conflicting keyboard shortcuts in Dreamweaver. In my Ctrl+E example above, it collides with Quick Edit.
In Dreamweaver, go to Edit → Keyboard Shortcuts.
Make a new Set if you're using the default Dreamweaver Standard Set.
Find the command you want to change. Quick Edit is in the Code Editing section.
Highlight the shortcut you want to modify.
If you want to unbind that shortcut, click the - button.
Otherwise, rebind that shortcut by typing the new shortcut in the Press Key field, and then clicking Change.
Click OK to save your changes.
If your change is not persisted, you can usually fix this by editing the following files.
%APPDATA%\Adobe\Dreamweaver CC 2019\en_US\Configuration\Menus\Custom Sets\*.xml
%APPDATA%\Adobe\Dreamweaver CC 2019\en_US\Configuration\Menus\menus.xml
Restart Dreamweaver for your new Brackets keyboard shortcuts to be read.
To bind other commands besides Delete Line, see the full Brackets Shortcuts command ID column.
I used these steps with Adobe Dreamweaver 2019 (19.2) on Windows.
