I'm working on a project that will be using shared code files from outside the project. I do not want to copy them, instead I want to link to them. I discovered how to do this and it works well. Since I don't want to make any changes to any of the linked files, I would like for the IDE to somehow make easy for me to know that the file I am currently viewing is a linked file. I have not been able to find a way to do this with CubeIDE. Does anyone know of a way? Thanks

The IDE indicates linked files by small arrow overlays on the icons:
The resolved location of linked file can be seen in Properties-> resource.

Thanks for replying Pavel. Unfortunately, my IDE is not showing the yellow:
I'm using revision 1.18.0 of the IDE.

@Pavel A. was highlighting the little squares with the arrow pointing to the upper left corner.

Thanks Karl. Got it.
That helps. Is there anyway to flag the editing window? The tree structure doesn't track the currently open file in the editing window.

Not sure what you mean by flag editing window?
You should accept @Pavel A. solution as he originally pointed out the link icons.
