Fixed widgets on all tabs
How can I wire an application consisting of more than one tabs containing one ore more widgets with the same content and functionality? Is it possible to define a widget outside a tab so that ist is always visible when the user selects any tab?
Currently widgets must be attached to one tab. The only way for "having" the same widget in several tabs is adding the same widget to all the tabs and using the same configuration (although they will not share the state).
This doesn't means this does make sense. We're thinking about it.
Yup, we analyzed how these tabs are made and came to conclusion that having a programmable „don’t hide“ option for a widget would pretty much do the trick.
That is, some of the widgets should get a different CSS class assigned so that they do not play the “see me/don’t see me” game anymore. One way to “assign” such status to a widget could be through widget settings.
Another could be through a special template which has two columns: left one which does not participate tabs and to the right one which behaves normally. This is less flexible but probably much easier to do and we figured out that such a setup could bring us very far.
WDYT, would (any of) this be feasible without re-designing everything from scratch?
