Description

# Add location tracking if data editor was manually opened

## Summary

When you manually open the Data Editor for a file being parsed, the location tracker does not appear.
The Tracking currently only works if launch.json is configured to open automatically.

## Proposed Solution / Description

When data editor is opened, it should check to see if the file requested is the one being parsed and, if so, activate the location tracking function & display.

Research direction

Start by tracing how the Data Editor handles manual opening and compare it with the existing launch.json path that activates location tracking. Verify the requested file is the one being parsed, then confirm that manual opening activates and displays the tracker for that file.
