Context not added when Cline view is closed

Open NightTrek opened this issue 8 months ago • 4 comments

What happened?

When using the shortcut (command + ') or the right-click menu option to add selected code context to Cline, the context is only successfully added if the Cline view is currently open. If the Cline view is closed (e.g., the file explorer is open on the left), the context is not added to Cline.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Ensure the Cline view is closed.
  2. Open a file in the VSCode editor.
  3. Select a block of code.
  4. Attempt to add the selected code to Cline using either the keyboard shortcut (command + ') or by right-clicking the selection and choosing the "Add to Cline" option from the context menu.
  5. Open the Cline view. The selected code context was not added.
