Description Matthew Trescott 2022-10-17 17:58:01 UTC
SUMMARY
Normally, if I open a file twice (once on the left side of the split view and once on the right), I can close either tab independently of the other one.

However, if I save the session without closing either tab, and then restart Kate, the two tabs are now "linked" and closing one tab will close the other one too.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Start a new session
2. View -> Split View -> Split vertically
3. Open a file (the file appears in both halves of the split view)
4. Choose a different file and open it twice, once for each side of the split view
5. Save the session
6. Close Kate.
7. Reopen Kate and choose the saved session.
8. Close one of the tabs

OBSERVED RESULT
The tab with the same file on the other side of the split view closes by itself.

EXPECTED RESULT
The other tab with the same file on the other side of the split view remains open.

True, our logic is there just not correct.
