How do I get an outline view in sublime text editor for Windows?

The minimap is helpful but I miss a traditional outline (a klickable list of all the functions in my code in the order they appear for quick navigation and orientation)

Maybe there is a plugin, addon or similar? It would also be nice if you can shortly name which steps are neccesary to make it work.

There is a duplicate of this question on the sublime text forums.

Hit CTRL+R, or CMD+R for Mac, for the function list. This works in Sublime Text 1.3 or above.

Sounds good. But nothing happens when I press ctrl-r. I have a php file open. Can I locate the command in a menu? Does this work without a plugin? karlthorwald –  user89021 Feb 6 '10 at 3:34
I looked, but there is no ctrl-r in the key binding file (under preferences). Do you have it there? If so, which is the "commmand" for it? –  user89021 Feb 6 '10 at 3:38
Ctrl+r exists in the current beta version (sublimetext.com/beta), but not in 1.2 –  jskinner Feb 6 '10 at 23:09

I use the fold all action. It will minimize everything to the declaration, I can see all the methods/functions, and then expand the one I'm interested in.

From the ST 3 menu: Edit-Code Folding-Fold All. Shortcut Ctrl+k, 1. Ctrl-k, j to undo –  wolfstevent Mar 7 at 0:19
