When splitting windows with C-x 1 or C-x 2 and opening 2 different buffers (a major-mode and a minor-mode, e.g. inferior Python console), minimap won't allow going back to a buffer with a major-mode + minimap:
After doing C-x o, Emacs briefly switches from the minor-modeto the major-mode buffer for a second, minimap appears for a fraction of a second, then Emacs bounces back to the previous minor-mode buffer.
Expected:
C-x o will switch focus from a minor-mode to a major-mode buffer.
This was reported by user makeMonday on StackEchange, but it happens to other users, including me.
Workaround:
M-x customize groupminimap, then modifying the 3rd option from top to bottom, "Minimap Automatically Delete Window: [Toggle] off".
This makes C-x o between visible buffers possible again, but it allows switching to the dedicated minimap buffer as well, which is pointless.
A minor, tolerable quirk in comparison to the original problem.
This has been happening since Emacs 25.
I'm currently using Emacs 26.
