I'm using Aptana Studio 3 and I'd like to get the code assist feature to work for Sass (.scss) files. It's OK if code assist doesn't work for Sass syntax/declarations, but I'd like to get syntax highlighting and code completion help for standard CSS declarations. So for example if I type in "background" I'd like the editor to display the syntax like it does for HTML.
I've added a new File Association Preference for .scss files (from here: https://wiki.appcelerator.org/display/tis/Changing+your+file+association+preferences), and assigned the CSS Editor as the default editor for .scss files. This gets me syntax highlighting, but no code completion help for CSS rules.
Am I doing something wrong or am I just out of luck for getting code completion/code assist help?
this^ for those who haven't done it already go to: preferences > general > Editors> File Associations in filetypes select sass (and scss), click add, choose css source editor, add it. then select the css source editor in the associated editors box and click default. after doing that- get frustrated and google code completion sass aptana studio like we did and then post the solution if you find it or upvote so someone finds out.
For anyone interested in using the default CSS editor for SASS as well. Do this.
Go to: Window > Preferences > General > Editors> File Associations. In the "File types", choose "*.scss". Then add the CSS Source Editor in "Associated editors" and make it default. Although I like the theme of the default SASS Source Editor.
And yes, as expected, this will give access to the auto-complete and all other features of the CSS Editor.
