XML navigator opens when side bar is disabled

[perlun]

Issue Type: Bug

When editing an XML file (e.g. a .csproj file), the XML Document highlights the active file in the side bar. This is fine and all, but: if you disable the side bar and click on a node in an XML file, the side bar is made visible again and the XML document tree highlights the node you clicked on. Very bad user experience, since this means that it's actually impossible to disable the side bar and click around in an XML document:

What I've tried so far:

• Right click the side bar, disable the XML Document. Doesn't help, same problem.
• Disable the XML extension - this makes the problem go away.

This will be fixed in the next release. For now, setting xmlTools.enableXmlTreeViewCursorSync to false will fix the issue.

Please follow #171 for further updates.

Thanks @DotJoshJohnson for a super-fast reply and status update - sorry for the noise! (I did skim through the issues but apparently not diligently enough. 😢)

[DotJoshJohnson]

No worries!
