Description Sam Davis CLA 2011-10-13 18:13:20 EDT 
Often, clicking "show in task editor" on an attachment link opens it in the browser instead. When this happens for a given link, it happens consistently for that link until the task is closed and reopened, and then it works correctly. I have seen this dozens of times, but unfortunately can't find a bug on eclipse.org that exhibits this problem.

Steps to reproduce:

* Open https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=175655
* Click "Comments" to expand the section
* Hover over the link in comment 48 and click "show in task editor"
* The attachement opens in the browser

This seems to depend on where the editor is scrolled; if you scroll down before clicking the link, the attachment is shown in the editor instead.

Can you try again with the latest? I recently changed the code to reveal the selection based on the data model rather than widgets.

After updating, I still see the same issue.
