Description Neil S 2022-11-09 11:05:45 UTC

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. open a text file in kwrite (not kate)
2. settings -> configure -> behaviour -> set 'limit number of tabs' to '1' -> ok
3. file -> new

OBSERVED RESULT
a new empty document is started in the same window and the old document disappears. But is still open.

EXPECTED RESULT
With max tabs set to '1' I expect a new kwrite window to be opened.


SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

This setting works as intended but I see the point that it would make sense to be able to configure some SDI like behavior.
