"New Text Document" in the gear menu becomes active once you select and/or open a file in the Project pane. Not sure why a selection should be required (may be to identify the context?), but it worked the same way for me in v9. > The inability to add a new document to a project is an annoying > oversight.

Amen to that. As you say, in v9 you could just hit Cmd-N and get a new file started in the project window, which is a bit more convenient than "New Text Document" in the gear menu. If you're working in a project window, it seems like that's where you would want a new document to appear by default. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "BBEdit Talk" discussion group on Google Groups.
