https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=408775 --- Comment #30 from Bernd Steinhauser --- So, since the feature is already there, you can close this bug report, if you'd like. The remaining part seems to be to just improving the UI. As a suggestion there: for me the intuitive way would be to right click on the tab and then activating an option there, just like you can detach a tab. So basically right click -> "Move terminal to new split view" would do the same thing that dragging the header to a tab does, activating the split selection. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=408775 --- Comment #29 from Bernd Steinhauser --- Thanks for the info. Moving a split back does work indeed. I didn't see those buttons, because in my icon scheme they are not visible … :/ (These are the first (and only so far) buttons where I observed a problem.) The split also works, but getting there is quite advanced. I would've never even thought of making this move like that. ^^ -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Then, the split can be moved back to a tab by pressing the "Move terminal to new tab" button in the split header. Not the most discoverable UI, but that can probably be improved. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=408775 --- Comment #27 from Bernd Steinhauser --- Just had a look at this again to see if it is still valid. In principle, everything works like designed, so there is no bug, but personally, I'd still like to have the option to actually split existing tabs. I often have the situation that I'm working on specific tasks in two tabs and then decide I want to have them next to each other … and later on then I would want to have them in separate tabs again. The current way that splits are always new sessions and are always destroyed once you undo the split is ok for many tasks, but overall, it's a bit limited. I think Konsole could improve there. So I still would like to see something implemented there. ;) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Did the cross check with X11 and when using Plasma/kwin_x11, it still gives the same problem. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=408775 --- Comment #23 from Bernd Steinhauser --- Not sure, it's certainly not how I used the splitting before. Guess I'll have to give it a try and see if it's something I'll use or (like many other features of konsole) skip. What I certainly don't like is the toolbar thingy it adds at each view (the one with the expand view and close view buttons). That kind of looks out of place to me and the additional bar takes up a lot of space for very low gain. Also, if you're using the tab bar at the bottom like me, it's weird to have the tab bar below, but then the view toolbar at the top of the view. Not sure what kind of interface would be better. Maybe it would be possible to integrate the buttons into the konsole space like in the mockup I'm going to attach. Would also allow to use bigger buttons. But of course it brings other challenges, technically and also design-wise. It would need to be done in a way that contrast between the symbols and the background is guaranteed. And it's harder to signal which of the tabs is currently active (could add another symbol like ✔ or something like that, but not sure if that is obvious enough). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=408775 --- Comment #21 from Bernd Steinhauser --- Sorry, can't do that, I'm not running team viewer. I did another test though. I ran konsole inside of urxvt and tried a few things. On normal splitting, there are no error messages, but as soon as I mix vertical and horizontal splitting, I get about 100 of these messages: qt.qpa.xcb: QXcbConnection: XCB error: 8 (BadMatch), sequence: 5129, resource id: 35651610, major code: 130 (Unknown), minor code: 3 That gave me an idea that it might actually be related to kwin or how konsole interacts with kwin (since iirc kwin handles the xcb connections). So as a wild guess, I tried it with the compositor disabled and then it worked! So to sum up: compositor activated -> bugged compositor deactivated -> works Weird, isn't it? Doesn't matter which backend for the compositor is used, I tried all of them (normally, I'm using the OpenGL 3.1 backend).

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=408775 --- Comment #11 from Bernd Steinhauser --- hm, if I start with a clean session, then just splitting either way works, but both ways doesn't. So: Ctrl+( Ctrl+) ← it's borked at this moment Ctrl+d works, but depending on which screen is selected might leave an empty view behind. The other way fails as well: Ctrl+) Ctrl+( ← borked The problem, where it's bugged even on a single split doesn't seem to repeat always, I've only triggered that twice.

If I do split H and then V, the two smaller panels don't really work. The property bar with the expand/close buttons is only visible on the lower one, there are some graphical bugs and on one occasion konsole actually opened a new half-sized window with the actual session running that should be in the upper view of the V split. Looking closer at it, it doesn't seem to be a problem with combo splitting, but rather that vertical splitting (which I normally don't use) is bugged. I see the same behavior if I do only split vertically. Funnily enough by doing this and closing the original session, I managed to drive konsole to a stage where I do now have konsole without a session running in this tab. I'll attach a screen of that. > You are the 3rd person asking for this so I'm really thinking on re adding > it, but as I said I need help in the form of code.

See, the whole split was complettely rewritten and it does not matches what you wrote as wrong behavior, but it also doesn't matches what you expect from correct behavior either. The splits are now within a tab, not duplicating the tabbar. Would you please update the konsole or at least compile the current code from source code to test and see if you still don't like the split tab feature? It's completely different from what you described, as correct and as incorrect behavior. Again, I'm sorry that my previous message was misleading, but at least now I understood where we got wrong on the versions. :) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

It does for me. I can see it, since I can see how keychain (is started with each new session) starts up. Just the way as if I were opening a new tab. > If there are two or more tabs, leave the active tab in the current view and > > split the most recently used inactive tab into the new view. > > > > Can you ellaborate on that? from what you explained I don't see how this > could be userfriendly. It kind of depends on what you want from the splitting. In my use case, it would be the most convenient one, since I use the splitting mostly to switch quicker between two tabs I've used often recently. So automatically putting the the tab used before the currently active one in the new view kind of made sense. But I can also understand why you would want to start with a new tab instead. > I Implemented the split views as it's done in Terminator and Tilix (and > those are currently most used than konsole for userfriendlyness) I have to admit, I've never tried Tilix. I've used Terminator a bit about 10 years ago, but ever since I've only used konsole. > Tabs should *always* be closed by the user, _actively_. > > Instead merge the two tab bars. > > > > Tabs are only closed by the users, the only way to close a tab withotu > explicit user is to close the *last* terminal inside of a tab.

Sure, the user actively closes the current view, but it's really unclear that when doing that the tabs inside that view get closed as well (as opposed to moved to the other view). > For the rest (the mirror mode that you seem keen on using it again) - I'm > not against it but the implementation was broken so I replaced by the > current split code.

For me, it was mostly that I just used it as always (actually in a lengthy system configuration session), closed the view and everything inside it was gone. Cost me 15-30min to get there again. :( -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
[konsole] [Bug 408775] Do not close/destroy tab when closing view
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=408775 --- Comment #1 from tcanabr...@kde.org --- I understand the issue here and I'll provide a patch for that. > > In general, I'm not quite sure about the splitted tab bars, since imo it > creates a lot of unnecessary dragging of windows. > I can see though why some people would want that. > There's no need to drag windows, you can navigate with the keyboard. > > My suggestion would be: > > On splitting: > If there is only one tab active, open a new tab in the new view to avoid > having > to open the new tab manually. > splitting doesn't opens a new tab, why do you belive so?

I can't have terminals with nothing inside. For the rest (the mirror mode that you seem keen on using it again) - I'm not against it but the implementation was broken so I replaced by the current split code. I'm just one developer and I would happily add the split mode again, if well developed. Patches welcome. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
