Actually, it does work, but only if you have some 'event' that makes that... E.g.: if you do F3 in a file, it will find the definition and alt+left will go back to where you were. It does not work in other cases because it needs a 'meaningful' event to do that (so, just editing or going up/down in a file don't generate these events). > > I could use bookmarks instead, but these are library files outside my > project and Pydev won't let me mark files outside of my project. > > Is this a bug? Actually, I think that the eclipse guys consider this a feature request... (add support for having bookmarks in external files). Eclipse does not handle project files and external files in the same way... (that's not really handled within pydev) You could try asking at the eclipse.org forums if there's a better way for doing that... or if they've some better way of accomplishing what you want.
