When
workbench.list.openModeis set todoubleClick, double-clicking an entry in the Outline view selects the symbol's full range in the editor (e.g. the entire function body) instead of jumping the cursor to it.Root cause
OutlinePane'stree.onDidOpenhandler forwardsisDoubleClickdirectly as theselectargument toIOutline.reveal(...). ForDocumentSymbolsOutline, that flag switches the editor selection between the symbol's fullrangeand a collapsed cursor at the start of itsselectionRange. In the defaultsingleClickmode this is fine — single-click jumps, double-click selects the range. IndoubleClickmode, single clicks no longer fireonDidOpenat all, so a double-click is the user's normal "open" gesture but still triggers the full-range selection.Change
src/vs/workbench/contrib/outline/browser/outlinePane.ts, gate the "select symbol range" behavior onopenMode === 'singleClick'. WhenopenMode=doubleClick, double-click now jumps to the symbol position, matching the default-mode single-click behavior.
