Fixed Folder Tabs

Post by E Programmer »

Using version 3.97g.

When I have several files open (say File1 File2 File3 File4) and have them lined up nicely in tabs along the top row, I do a "Find in File.." search (Control Q) from within File3

I get a nice result showing the item in all the files and the result is displayed to the right of File3 with the tab title "Tool...":

Code: Select all

xfgrep -i -x -f -n Item File* 
File1  (202)   lostItem
File2  (115)   Item found
File3  (75)     no Item here
File4  (172)   List of Items
If I click on the line 'File2 (115)', Zeus opens to the correct line, in the correct file, but the tab of File2 is now to the right of 'Tool...' which is to the right of File3.

Is there a way that I can go to the proper file/line without the tabs moving around?

This is in fact by design. ;)

The reason for this behaviour is to insure that if the newly opened window is then closed the user experience is to see the window that was used to first open the window.

If the file tab location ws not changed, when the window is closed the user is not returned to the correct starting window.

Unfortunately there is no way to configure this behaviour :(

Well, if I had my druthers... I'd rather that the 'Tool...' tab moved instead of the File Tab.
