Hiding / showing a pane with caching

[edbotstudio]

If I hide a pane with <v-if>, the child component is destroyed in a similar way to <router-view>. I need it caching so the pane is hidden and shown again in its last state (with a button toggle). I tried placing <keep-alive> around the pane but this messed up the view. Is there a way this can be done?

Perhaps setting the minimum size to 0 and hiding the splitter would work?
