View plot in editor space #2270

Closed timtmok closed 1 month ago

timtmok commented 8 months ago

Add a way to allow a user to view a plot as an editor. This allows a larger view without altering the size of the plots pane and leverages the editor's ability to float as its own window or tile along other editors/plots.

I have been doing some prep for teaching a workshop, and I really want this feature.

Relevant Mastodon thread:

The only weird thing is no zoom option for plotting.

Sort of requested in https://github.com/posit-dev/positron/issues/3884.

I think as long as we have a really good encapsulation of the IPositronPlotClient class it should be relatively straightforward to write an EditorPane/EditorInput class that can act as the front-end.

Work done for #1713 will probably make this easier as it will involve making the front-end as stateless as possible.

In RStudio there is a very useful option to show data/plots/viewer/console without having to split panels, it just expands the panels using shortcut keys.

Tools>Modify Keyboard Shortcuts>Zoom. It's really fast.

I think it might be really cool if we had that on the Positron.
