Bug: splitting window causes pane to persist #8

Open Frozenfire92 opened 10 years ago

Frozenfire92 commented 10 years ago

If I have my Ask Stack Results tab open and focused and then split the pane (any direction) and close the Ask Stack Results tab the new split (and empty) pane will persist until another Ask Stack tab is open.

Reproduce

Open an Ask Stack Tab
Split pane cmd+k, arrow key
Close Ask Stack tab
Empty split pane persists

Thanks for reporting this. I'll have to investigate to see what's the best option here.

What behaviour would you like to see for that scenario?

Frozenfire92 commented 10 years ago

Three options come to mind

Ignore the split
Alert the user that a split has been detected and is being ignored as Ask-Stack is already split
Accept the split and close the original tab

Sounds good. I'd ideally like to ignore the split but don't think it's possible with the current Atom API. I opened an issue on that matter in the Atom repo.
