I opened that project organizer property pane, verified the patterns,
and changed indexing to "yes". Then I saved that pane saving that pane
does nothing. No symbols show up in sidebar. Same for clicking the
reload button: "no symbols found" in teh Symbols pane of the sidebar.
The only way I can get symbols to show up in the sidebar is to
actually open source files in the editor pane.
