[BUG] Can't find option to close editor window

Open Dweeberly opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

To Reproduce

Open shell, type "code ."

Commands you ran "code ."

Observed Behavior

This link https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cloud-shell/using-cloud-shell-editor, suggest there is a way to close the 'code' window without closing the shell. That does not appear to be the case. image

none

Expected behavior

I would expect to be able to close the 'code' window after opening it without having to close the and restart the shell.

Is this specific to Cloud Shell?

Yes

Interface information

Using Windows 10 Pro and the Edge browser.

Additional context

This seems like something that should be there and it's very frustrating to have to close the shell and/or have no control (context menu, i.e. open/close file, etc) within the 'code' editor.

I can reproduce. There is actually a button to close the editor in the top-right, but for some reason it is not displaying properly, we need to fix that. If you blindly click on the top-right part of the lighter-grey bar in the editor, you get a drop-down menu including a Close option. Or Ctrl+Q works too.

This will be fixed will a new Cloud Shell UX rolling out in the next couple months with a clearer close editor button.

Still an issue as the new cloud shell doesn't have an editor we need to use the old one and still the bug is present
