New tab control

[eranif]

This is something that I am definitely thinking about (due to some un-resolved issues on Mac)

Moreover, IMHO, it's more beautifull than wxNotebook

[eranif]

Trunk now contains code for wxAuiNotebook with custom theme I made for codelite (which respects the OS colours and uses some custom buttons)

I have completed the transition to the new notebook control.

This is how it currently looks (using custom CL Tab art):

Can this tab system show tabs on the right side instead of the top? (I configured it on the right side in codelite 2.3 to gain more vertical screen space)

[eranif]

No.
wxAuiNotebook does not support right or left side tabs. (the defines are there (wxAUI_NB_RIGHT, wxAUI_NB_LEFT), but they are not implemented )

So this means there will be no detached tabs in future? Not even sure if I even miss them or not, because having multiple editor-windows-with-tabs that'll dock like the current one does is so big improvement for users with multiple displays.


btw. there's bug when clicking(closing) editor-tabs with middle mouse button, quite annoying when it does close files from totally different editor-tab-group.

This MDI feature is exactly what I was looking for.
I can't seem to find out how enable it.
The r-click detach menu item is available on all windows *except* the source file windows so I am stuck with SDI.

Am I missing something obvious?

I'm running codelite v3.0.5041, linux 2.6, intel x86_64

Thanks

The linux binary of codelite is compiled differently, to enable it you need to build codelite from sources after changing the the macro that disabled it for Linux, read this:
