Bug ID: 414325
Summary: 'Comic book' order of spit panels
Product: kate
Version: 19.04.3
Platform: Kubuntu Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: application
Assignee: kwrite-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: mdi...@grulic.org.ar
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
I generally have my kate split in two overtically, one panel on the left and
one on the right. Switching between them is simple enough, press F8 and you're
done.
The problem arises when I sometimes split the left panel horizontally, having
the following layout:
XX|YY
XX|YY
--+YY
ZZ|yy
ZZ|yy
If I press F8 in this case, order is X -> Y -> Z -> X, but I would expect X ->
Z -> Y -> X, as if I was reading a comic. Also notice that if I split Y
horizontally into Y and y, I would expect X -> Y -> Z -> y -> X, which I think
is what kate's going to do. But I have the impression that if I go X+Y -> X+Y+y
-> X+Y+y+Z, that's the order in which the panels are going to be traversed with
F8.
I'm not sure if it make sense to take in account more complex setups.
Otherwise, you could overlay a panel number every time I press F8 to train me
to the real order.
I also understand if you don't think you have to do anything about this and
mark this as won't fix.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Split vertically
2. Split left panel horizontally
3. Traverse panels with F8.
OBSERVED RESULT
* Order is X, Y, Z, X
EXPECTED RESULT
* Order is X, Z, Y, X
