Hello, if I split view in Konsole, it just split view in same session. I would like to see split view functionality in Konsole like in Terminator. This split view functionality in Konsole is useless, because if I want a new session I need to open a new tab, but I dont want to open new tabs, I hate tabs. So for now Im going to use Terminator.
Indeed what Konsole and Terminator do are two completely different things. What Konsole has is called "split view" because it indeed splits the _view_ of the given terminal emulator session. Note that Terminator doesn't call its feature "split view", it avoids using the word "view" exactly because it does not offer multiple "views" to the same terminal. The feature it provides is simply called "split" in the menu, or "split terminals" in the manual page. Another popular choice for the so-called "paned" interface (what you're asking for) is Tilix, which calls the same feature "Add terminal right/down". (On the other hand, Terminator, Tilix and other VTE-based emulators cannot do a konsole-like "split view" because the underlying VTE terminal emulation widget doesn't support this.) (I'm not a konsole developer so I cannot comment on whether this feature will be implemented.)
Thank you for explanation, so yea, I want option to add new terminal session to right/down like in Terminator :) I hope it will be possible.
@Egmont Koblinger I hope that it will be implemented :)
Git commit 7a43e3b2cde05a70a38c0bcac39051b675425bf9 by Kurt Hindenburg, on behalf of Tomaz Canabrava. Committed on 10/12/2018 at 15:02. Pushed by hindenburg into branch 'master'. Don't duplicate the tabs when Spliting the View Summary: Instead of iterating over the sessions to fetch the view and duplicate the current screen once for each split, ignore all of them and just create a new terminal view. The only thing this terminal view shares with the previous current widget is the profile. use createView instead of manually trying to create the view Fixes bug while closing the split Don't duplicate tabs in the splits Related: bug 380455 FIXED-IN: 19.04 Reviewers: thsurrel, hindenburg, gennad, ngraham, #konsole Reviewed By: thsurrel, hindenburg, ngraham, #konsole Subscribers: ngraham, hindenburg, gennad, konsole-devel Tags: #konsole Differential Revision: https://phabricator.kde.org/D17267 M +11 -9 src/Application.cpp M +20 -21 src/MainWindow.cpp M +7 -4 src/MainWindow.h M +3 -4 src/Part.cpp M +6 -0 src/TerminalDisplay.cpp M +13 -19 src/ViewContainer.cpp M +4 -5 src/ViewContainer.h M +35 -71 src/ViewManager.cpp M +9 -5 src/ViewManager.h M +12 -0 src/ViewSplitter.cpp https://commits.kde.org/konsole/7a43e3b2cde05a70a38c0bcac39051b675425bf9
