Multiple robot simulation: Switching from simulation to source code view and back to simulation causes the multiple simulation to end

OpenRoberta / openroberta-lab

The programming environment »Open Roberta Lab« by Fraunhofer IAIS enables children and adolescents to program robots. A variety of different programming blocks are provided to program motors and sensors of the robot. Open Roberta Lab uses an approach of graphical programming so that beginners can seamlessly start coding. As a cloud-based application, the platform can be used without prior installation of specific software but runs in any popular browser, independent of operating system and device.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

When using the multiple simulation, if the user switches from the multiple simulation to the source code view and then back to the simulation view, the multiple robot simulation ends and only one robot remains.

Describe the solution you'd like

The user should be given an option to end the multiple simulation when switching to the source code view.

Describe alternatives you've considered

The user can be notified that the multiple robot simulation has ended when shifting to the source code view.

Additional context

This issue also applies to the other views, such as "program documentation view" and the "help view".

Same issue raised closed as not a bug, https://github.com/OpenRoberta/openroberta-lab/issues/787

Multiple simulation window is single focus view to run different programs, When switched to source code view, current program is brought into focus and simulation switches to the current program robot execution.

This one is a feature request, not a bug report. Here it is proposed that the closing of the multiple sim is handled more gracefully, as not to confuse users why the multiple sim is gone afterwards.
