undoking is misspelled here. It's undocking

ccordoba12 · 2016-12-11T21:12:40Z

There's one thing that worries me about this change. What happens when users press Ctrl+Shift+E to move to the Editor?

I think that makes the Editor pane to appear in the main window, right?

dalthviz · 2016-12-11T22:14:59Z

If you are with the focus in the main window, yes it makes appear the Editor pane. If you, in the other hand, have the focus in a new window it doesn't appear.

ccordoba12 · 2016-12-12T21:01:58Z

If you are with the focus in the main window, yes it makes appear the Editor pane

Then we need to fix this, and make Ctrl+Shift+E to move to the new window, if the pane is hidden and an Editor window is visible.

We also need to prevent to more than window for this to make sense :-)

ccordoba12 · 2017-01-08T21:12:42Z

Sorry @dalthviz for my big delay on reviewing this one. I hope to do it after we release 3.1 :-)

goanpeca · 2017-02-17T21:13:09Z

@dalthviz, does this method need to be here in the main window? As far as I can see, it doesn't use any attribute/method of the window, so I think we can safely move it to the Editor plugin file.

ccordoba12 · 2017-06-21T21:05:43Z

@goanpeca, what do you think? There is an action in the Editor options menu to undock it so users can move next to other plugins.

ccordoba12 · 2017-06-21T21:06:31Z

Problem is this is not the same behavior for the rest of plugins.

ccordoba12 · 2017-06-22T13:52:01Z

@dalthviz, this needs another merge with 3.x.

goanpeca · 2017-06-22T14:27:03Z

@ccordoba12 yeah, this change would be a bit inconsistent with the rest and is better suited for 4.x

ccordoba12 · 2017-06-22T14:37:24Z

Ok, you're right. @dalthviz, please rebase this PR in top of master and keep working on it, so that when users press the undock button they see a new window for every plugin, and not just the Editor.

This functionality could go to plugins/base.py in master.

…or window. Disabled shortcut for the editor when working in a new window.

ccordoba12 · 2017-10-09T16:32:21Z

the only think that I don't like is that when undocking plugins are somehow small and square

Could you post a screenshot to see what you mean?

rlaverde

Looking great, and pretty concise (I think that the this PR will be longer 🙈)
My only concern is the size of the window when undocking a plugin.
