The error does not show for me. When you disable Minimap, you should resize the editor a bit so the scroller goes to the right. There is no API to make this automatic.

@the-woocash I found the issue. It is fixed now.

@the-woocash I found the issue. It is fixed now.

Thanks a lot! Will Your solution by any chance also solve issue #764?

[aminya]

@the-woocash I can look into that. There is a PR to investigate this issue.

I am still facing this issue with the newest version of Minimap (4.39.5). The issue is the same as above, but I can reliably reproduce it on Windows 7 when moving a pane from one side of the editor to the other. I do this by pressing Alt+Ctrl+Shift+Arrow using the Move Panes package (version 0.2.0). This could still be an issue on the side of Move Panes, but this issue is linked in the popup window, so I thought to report it here.

@meetaig thanks for the reproduction. I will try to look into this.

Which move-panes package are you using?

Trying a simple command with move-panes triggers an error that is not related to Minimap.

[meetaig]

yes, that's the package. Seems like its the culprit. I didn't look into this too deep, but I see that this package has issues open from 2015, so I will just try to find a different package. I can reproduce your error as well. Thanks for looking into it so quickly!

It looks like moving items between panes is built into atom now. You can just add keymaps to window:move-active-item-to-pane-on-right and other directions.

Closing this because it seems it is fixed.
