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 KDE neon 5.26 KDE Plasma Version: 5.26.2 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.99.2 Qt Version: 5.15.7
This setting works as intended but I see the point that it would make sense to be able to configure some SDI like behavior.
