When "Command Center" is enabled in titlebar, it unecessarily disables custom titles #192644

Closed mkanet closed 6 months ago

mkanet commented 1 year ago

Type: Bug

  1. Add the following setting in user settings.json: "window.title": "Visual Studio Code - ${activeEditorLong}${separator}${rootName}",
  2. Open any supported VSCode file. This should display Visual Studio Code - C:\test.ps1 in the title bar.
  3. Enabling "Command Center" in title bar, completely/unecessarily disables the custom title.

Even though there's plenty of space to display both the custom title and the tiny <- -> Command Center buttons, VSCode just completely disables the custom title just to display those Command Center buttons.

The two Command Center buttons should be displayed to the left of the custom window title, instead, the Command Center buttons disable the custom title and put the Command Center buttons in the middle of the title bar with nothing else displayed; which is a complete waste of space.

The command center shows the title inside of it?

mkanet commented 11 months ago

@sbatten the problem is that there isn't enough room to fit a complete path in the Command-Center; at least on smaller monitors. If we could have the flexibility to display the normal Title (in which there is plenty of space) and also display the command center arrows next to it, we can have more flexibility without any negative side-effects.

Below: (There is room for both the complete path and Command Center arrows and also looks cleaner) image

...or, at least increase the width of the Command-Center to use more of the unused space. However, I still think my suggestion would look cleaner with more flexibility and doesn't require changing the size of the current Command-Center.

Are you just wanting to disable the command center?

mkanet commented 11 months ago

Are you just wanting to disable the command center?

No I don't. I just want to display both the normal Title on VSCode's title bar AND command center together. I don't want to display "Quick Open". Currently, we are limited to displaying only the Title OR command center on the title bar, not both.

No, I simply want:

<Menu Bar> <Left Arrow> <Right Arrow> <Custom Title> <Window Controls>

I don't want the search bar. Its not very good for custom titles that display long file paths. It truncates longer paths. Plus, I prefer to use the Command Palette hotkey shortcut instead of the search bar.

I just want the arrows associated with the Command Center. I don't want the search bar. I just want to display the custom title on the titlebar without it getting truncated.

It would have been nice if the Breadcrumb bar displayed full paths; including source drive letter. Since it doesn't, the only other way to consistently display the full path of the file that's currently opened in the editor (without it getting truncated) is to display the custom title normally without the search bar.

@jrieken if I understand this now, the request is essentially to allow showing the arrows from the command center without the search box (keeping the original title format). Maybe we could decouple the command center from those actions if there is a strong desire here.
