Tabs Hidden in Sublime Text

Tabs Hidden in Sublime Text

I used the Hide tabs option from the View < Hide Tabs , in my Sublime Text 3 editor.

In windows by pressing the alt key the tabs used to show up again.

But alt is not working in Ubuntu. What should I press to make my tabs visible again?

This question on Stack Overflow should answer your question. To summarize,

  1. Go to Preferences → Key Bindings
  2. In the User keymap file, add a key combination for toggling between the visibility of tabs, as

    { "keys": ["<some key combination>"], "command": "toggle_tabs" }
    

Further details, including identifiers for keys, can be found in the Sublime Text 3 documentation.

If you don't necessarily require a key combination, you can simply use View → Show Tabs to make them visible again.
