Description Sebastien 2003-10-26 19:44:28 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1)
Installed from:    Mandrake RPMs

- When program is executed, the "Application" IDEAI tab is shown : good !
But, when prog is terminated, this tab still shown and we must click on source code to be allowed to continue coding !
Not very important but ennoying if too often : "Application" tab must be hidden at prog exit.
- If compile was manually aborded, please hide the "Messages" IDEAUI tab, because we doesn't want it if we have aborded compilation !

I agree, it's a "Bad Thing" TM :)

I do not agree, Most time you want to see the program output.

Not a good idea. Most times you abort if you have an error. And if you have an error you want to click on it to jump to the offending line. So it's not a good idea to hide the messages view.

Please specify your KDevelop version. Please use KDevelop 3.0.0 beta 1.

A don't see anything worth fixing here.
Comment 3 Sebastien 2003-11-23 16:00:35 UTC 
Juste another suggestion :

- When prog is terminated, this tab still shown
Use [ESCAPE] key to return to code (and REALLY place the cursor and focus to the code) : it's better than systematically hide this panel.
And adopt this behaviour for all tabs : I HATE use mouse !

- Then, the second point will also be resolved !
