Using side panel only, no tabs

Post by vblayde »

Hello! I'm a new potential user of CudaText. I've been searching for a replacement program for Notepad++ that will work natively on more platforms, and CudaText seems like it's almost the perfect candidate for me. With Plugins, I've been able to duplicate basically everything I like about Notepad++.

The only potential issue I have is very minor, but I haven't been able to find a way to do it, or a way to discover if it's even possible. I can't remember if this is how Notepad++ works out of the box or not, but right now, for me, it doesn't show any tabs for open files, it simply lists them in the side panel. I know that I can get a tab list on CudaText's side panel, but I don't really need that and the tabs, and the only option I've found to get rid of the tabs is ui_tabs_disabled, which not only leaves the tab bar on top, but only allows me to have one file open at a time (which, to its credit, it say it was going to do, though I had to try it anyway).

Am I missing something? Is there some way to get rid of the tab bar altogether? Again, I realize this is a super minor thing, and probably not enough to keep me from using it, it would just be nice if it was possible.

Hello

a) we have option ui_tab_position
b) tiny plugin to hide tabs - file, rename to .zip
As thank-you, I welcome some review of CudaText on some site, or youtube video.

will be possible to implement this as new command? or better as two new commands… hide tabs, show tabs + option for start of CudaText…

OK, was easy to add, so done - command 'toggle ui-tabs", and option.
