Tag completion not working for new file extension (.twig)

Hey folk,

I have recently added .twig to my list of file extensions Dreamweaver will open. Colour coding (kinda) and source format are working in code view, however tag completion is not. This is a bit of a pain as a lot of my .twig files are html heavy.

Anyone know a step I may have missed to activate tag completion? Tag completion is working for all other file extensions.

Thanks heaps!

Mike

I think that you will find that it is not only code colouring, the end result will be a total inclusion of TWIG files.

In the meantime, do the following:

  1. Launch Dw
  2. Open brackets.json from below path:
    Mac: located in ~username/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Dreamweaver CC 2017/en_us/Configuration/Brackets
    Win: located in ~username/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Dreamweaver CC 2017/en_us/Configuration/Brackets
  3. Add below code at the end:
    ,"language.fileExtensions": {
         "twig": "html"
    }
  4. Save brackets.json and relaunch Dw

Ok I've discovered a workaround. Changing TWIG to PHP in the bottom right menu allows me to use code completion. Would need to do everytime I open a template however.

Would still be interested in a fulltime fix.
