Open CrossR opened 6 years ago
I rather like it there since it is find-able this way. How about adding some short warning/explanation in the commands description?

I think this comes down to the buffer list checking if a menu is open, and if one is, it will not open the buffer list. Which is the most sensible approach, but means that the command pallete option does not work. Then, since the command is registered in Oni, it appears in the menu when it will never work from that menu.
Instead, does Oni need some way of setting a command as a keybind only? We want the command to be available everywhere, but we also don't really want it in the command pallete. That, or some way of more inteligently reacting to the command pallete, so the plugins can react to it.
Ie, I'm suggesting that for Oni.command.registerCommand, there be some optional flag to say "This command is a keybind" so it doesn't necessarily appear in the command pallete.

@CrossR I agree re. filtering out I get @TalAmuyal point re. visibility but tbh I think its confusing ux to have ineffective commands and also tbh the vast majority of the commands that ive "added" to it werent intended to show up there there just wasn't a way to prevent that I think command discoverability should come through maybe an oni help section in app but the command palette should be reserved for functionality users can activate via that menu a la vscode or atom etc. (my two cents) re. potential implementation could add a flag to Command creation to check if the command should be rendered and in the menu just filter out ones which shouldn't render
