Hard to find tabs #49

Open chipkent opened 1 month ago

chipkent commented 1 month ago

Plugin: 1.3.0 pre

The following code produces many tabs.

from deephaven import empty_table

for i in range(100):
    print(f"Making {i}")
    globals()[f"t{i}"] = empty_table(10).update(['X = i', 'Y = 10 * i'])

In the IDE, there is a nav to search for a tab by name. That is missing here, so it can become difficult to find a tab if there are many. Only scroll appears to be supported.

@chipkent These tabs are native to VSCode itself. There's many ways you can customize the presentation of tabs within VS Code: https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/getstarted/userinterface#_tabs For your case specifically:

When you have more open items than can fit in the title area, you can use the Open Editors section in the Explorer view (available through the ... button) to display a dropdown list of tabbed items.

Granted it would also be nice to be able to click on the object in the Output panel and have it get focus, and/or see a list of the objects available on a connection, but hopefully the tab navigation can help in the meantime while we build out other features.
