Interaction between activities and tab-groups

Open nicodebo opened this issue 7 months ago • 2 comments

Hello,

I started using activities since a week and I really enjoy it.

I use tab-groups which allows to have multiple tabs associated under a tab-group. (https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs.git/commit/etc/NEWS?id=f9b737fb9d21ac7adff403274167e76e77d033b8) When opening an activity, it gets appended as a tab under the current tab-group. Shouldn't the activity be opened in it's own tab-group ? Or is it the user responsibility to assign a new tab-group to the activity ?

Hi,

I'm glad to hear that you're enjoying it.

Activities doesn't currently interact with tab groups. There are many possibilities for doing so, but I don't use tab groups much (yet?) myself, so I haven't implemented support for them.

Feel free to suggest some ideas for how they could interact; the more specific, the better. Then we can discuss them and maybe arrive at a design that can be implemented and experimented with. Thanks.

I'd say that the when creating a new activity the named tab group would by "α: project_name" and the following tabs under the group would be named after the open buffer.

This package https://github.com/fritzgrabo/project-tab-groups does something similar but only for project.el project.
