Description Dani Megert CLA 2010-11-18 12:06:00 EST
Never worked.

Like the 'Add Task...' action, the 'Add Bookmark...' action should also work for folders and projects.
Comment 1 Dani Megert CLA 2010-11-18 12:07:48 EST
Fixed in HEAD (AddBookmarkAction.java rev. 1.17).
Available in builds >= N20101118-2000.

@Dani, double-clicking on a bookmarked folder should by default reveal it in one of the explorers (Package Explorer, ...). 

Workaround for now: right-click and "Show in..."

Thanks, Renaud

This is not a workaround, but how it works. Choosing a random explorer and reveal it there is just wrong.

@Dani, thanks for the prompt answer. 
I see your point, but doing nothing when the user clicks on the bookmarked folder does not make sense to me either...
