Description drscott 2001-11-15 22:57:42 UTC
Hi

close should be available in the context menu of the graphical diff window (as
it was in version 3.2.1)

Best regards
Henning
Comment 1 Martin Entlicher 2001-11-16 12:01:33 UTC
This was actually designed this way. The graphical diff component
docks into Editor and was desired to make it to look similar as other
editor panes. These also do not have any "Close" buttons. You can use
"Close" command from the popup menu.
Comment 2 Jiri Kovalsky 2001-11-16 12:09:44 UTC
This is as designed. Verifying ...
Comment 3 drscott 2001-12-21 10:19:36 UTC
Maybe i was not clear:

if you right-click into the source browser (which shows a 'normal' java file) you are able to select 
'close   (Ctrl-F4)' from the popup menu.

This is not possible if the source browser shows a graphical diff. But Ctrl-F4 still works...

I hope that it is not impertinent that i reopened this issue...

Best regards
Henning

No, it is not impertinent to reopen an issue when you think, that it's
not fixed.

However I really have the close action there on the right-click menu.
Can you please provide your build number?

Comment 6 drscott 2002-01-03 02:31:00 UTC
Ah, yes, you did a right click on one of the many 'tabs'. But i mean 
a right click within the area showing the source code. That's the 
point.

If the source editor shows a 'normal' view of a source, there is 
a 'close' action in that menu.
if the source editor shows a diff view of a source, there is no such 
action available.

i've tested this behaviour with NB3.3.0. I can't give you the exact 
build number at the moment, but it was the build which was announced 
on 12th of December.
Comment 7 Martin Entlicher 2002-01-03 11:42:38 UTC
Oh yes, now I get it. I've never used Close on the popup menu INSIDE
the component. No need the exact build now I know what do you mean :-)

Moving to vcscore module, where the visual diff is actually
implemented.
