Grails is not seen by editor

see screen shot
using windows paint

Every Edit requires a trip to grails tools to "Refresh dependencies"

otherwise the editor understands nothing!

Do you see any exceptions in your error log?

I'd recommend that you update to the latest nightly builds of grails tooling and Groovy-Eclipse:
http://dist.springsource.com/snapshot/STS/nightly/e35
http://dist.codehaus.org/groovy/dist...snapshot/e3.5/

If none of this sheds any light on the issue, can you try to create a new Grails project and see if the behavior persists with a very simple Domain class and a very simple controller class?

I removed the sts ide from my machine; windows 7 , 32 bit

it was unusable with Grails

I downloaded the latest sts ide from springsource site this past monday!

I'll try the next version, this version from springsource was
a step backward from the last version, which was marginal.
