Consider adding tabs to the layout

Open keithknott26 opened this issue 6 years ago • 3 comments

Consider adding a widget that allows tabs to be placed on the screen which would appear similar to the image below

Now that the button is done perhaps some of the code can be re-used? Tabs would be named with a title, selecting a tab (via mouse click) would expose a fresh canvas that has widgets already placed on it. May also tie into the enhancement where termdash would own only a portion of the screen, pressing the left or right key (or button(s)) would cycle through the tabs.

This enhancement would give a user much more terminal real-estate to work with paving the way for some really neat interactive applications.

That is a very good idea, thanks @keithknott26.

Thanks for the suggestion. This will work well with #67 since the tabs can do that (dynamically change layout).

any idea when this would be available or is it already implemented? @mum4k

Hi @sivaraman-mailappan, as far as I know, we don't have anyone working on this feature at the moment. However if there is someone willing to pick it up, I would be happy to provide consultancy and support as needed.
