Bug ID: 426982
Summary: Double clicking tabs create a new file
Product: kate
Version: 20.08.1
Platform: openSUSE RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kwrite-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: groszdaniel...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Double clicking a tab on the tab bar opens a new file.
Creating a new tab when double clicking the empty area of the tab bar is a
common feature in tabbed applications (though it's less common in editors where
opening a new tab involves creating a new document, and there is a New icon
anyway). However, there is no empty space in the current implementation of the
tab bar (as the tabs always fill the space), and it happens when double
clicking a tab, so I assume this behavior is unintended. It's fairly easy to
accidentally double click a tab when trying to switch to it, and in most tabbed
applications it behaves like a single click.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Double click a tab in the tab bar (whether the current tab or an inactive
one).
OBSERVED RESULT
Kate creates a new file/tab and switches to it.
EXPECTED RESULT
The tab is activated (if it's inactive), and nothing else happens.
