The VR3 plugin can now optionally open in a tab in the log pane instead of
in its own panel in the main Leo window (also referred to as a pane in the
splitter). I have attached a screen shot that shows the panel layout that
I like when using VR3 in a tab.
There are two new commands to control that tab behavior:
vr3-tab -- opens VR3 in a tab
vr3-toggle-tab -- opens or closes VR3 in a tab.
I like to use an @button node in the @settings tree to make a button for
vr3-toggle-tab. The button runs c.k.simulateCommand('vr3-toggle-tab').
vr3-toggle will close VR3 if open in a splitter pane as well as in a tab.
Next time, the command will open it in the splitter. Conversely,
vr3-toggle-tab will close VR3 in either a tab or the splitter, but will
re-open it in a tab the next time the command is run.
An advantage to running VR3 in a tab is that you can open something else in
a new splitter pane without interfering with VR3.
One minor drawback is that focus will switch to the log pane when something
is written there - most likely when the outline has been saved. Then you
have to click in the VR3 tab to see it again. I haven't found this to
bother me much.
This new behavior has now been merged into the devel branch, so it's ready
to try out.
