CODECOMPOSER: CCS Theia secondary window support for text editors

Part Number: CODECOMPOSER

Tool/software:

Is there a way to open additional windows/views?

The original CCS had these features under the "Window" menu, or you could simply drag a view outside the current window. It looks like it was added (Multi Window support (Floating windows) #10526) to Eclipse Theia recently. Is this not supported on the current CCS Theia release?

    , will that also include code editor windows? I just noticed there is a selection when you right-click, but I get these errors at the bottom. Is that expected?

    Hi Derrick,

    We currently don't have plans to support opening editors in new windows - we don't support secondary windows at the moment, so this menu item should have been disabled or hidden. Thanks for letting us know about this.

    Hi Derrick,

    I accidentally deleted my first reply, so I'm reposting it here:

    We currently do not support secondary windows in CCS Theia, but I will pass your feedback over to the team. 

    For our next release (1.5), there will be support for opening additional views of the same view type for select views. Currently, we have this feature in the Runtime (RTOS) Objects view where clicking the 'Add New View' button in the toolbar will open another view. Our next release will extend this feature over to Memory, Disassembly, Register and Graph views.

    , thanks for the clarification. We're hoping this feature is included sooner than later as it's very common in IDEs and has high utilization across our team, especially considering that the original CCS supports it but is already being obsoleted in favor of Theia.
