Hi devs, the title says it all: When multiple KWrite windows are open, one can close one by clicking on the X in the window title bar. However, if one uses the menu (either by clicking "File" → "Quit" or using the respective shortcut), all KWrite windows are closed, not only the current one. I'll have a look in the code to see if I can fix it … otherwise, it would be really nice if this was patched (KWrite is my favorite non-integrated development environment ;-) Thanks in advance for looking into this! Cheers, Tobias
This is working as designed atm. File -> Quit means quitting the application.
But this way, there's no way to close a single instance of KWrite through a keyboard shortcut. IMHO this does not work as expected. Closing the application should close it and all tabs it contains – but as soon as I don't open documents in tabs, but in a own instance, closing should behave like clicking the X, and only close that very instance.
There is "Close Window" action. Ctrl+Shift+W It does work as expected. Our expectations are different though. Pretty much the whole KDE uses Ctrl+Q to quit application so its unlikely this will change
Fair enough, one can actually use Ctrl+Shift+W to close a single window. I think this is a bit unintuitive, but as this is a design decision, I think we can close this. Thanks anyway for your time :-)
