Bug ID: 509856
Summary: Switching between split views moves lines if search
box open in one but not other
Classification: Applications
Product: kate
Version First 25.04.1

Platform: Other

kate-25.04.0-1.fc40.x86_64
I do a lot of copy pasting (by using the middle click) from one view to another
in a split view. However, since this is a single action when using the middle
click, if the search box (or I guess anything that appears in that same spot)
is open in one, but not the other, then the view moves position (to accommodate
for the previously hidden/showing search box) and the text is pasted, not where
I clicked, but where ever it moved to.
Fix options:
-put the search bar "in" the view, so it doesn't jump when switching between
views
-if activated, keep the search bar open for all views, even if activated in
just one
-do not move the position where the views are split on when switching between
views (Best option, I think)
Steps to reproduce:
Open a kate instance, split into a top and bottom view with any documents that
have more text than fit in the view (so scrolling is required). Open search
(eg, by ctrl+F), then mouse click between views and watch the text jump
position. Try highlighting and middle-click pasting from one to the other, and
note the paste going on the wrong line.
