I can have only one project / path opened in in the same time, in one Sublime Text 3 window.

Each time I quickly switch project (Ctrl+Alt+P), new project replaces current one. Each time I open new folder (File > Open Folder...) or project (Project > Open Project...), it is opened in a new Sublime Text window.

Can I have more than one project opened in one Sublime Text 3 window? If yes -- how to achieve this?

If by having multiple projects in one window you mean having multiple directories that are located in different places of your system at once in the sidebar tree, then yes, you can achieve this.

  1. Open one of the projects in Sublime Text just like you always do.

  2. Do one of the following:

    • Drag the root directory of the second project from the file explorer to the sidebar of the first project ST window.

    • In your terminal cd to the second project and enter subl . -a.

-a flag means to add to the last focused window instead of opening in a new window).

EDIT

Even easier solution.

Open the first project. Go to (in the menu above)

Project -> Add folder to project
