[Feature Request] Tab Management

[levikline]

Describe the solution you'd like

Would be helpful to support tab management similar to platforms like VSCode.

Some ideas include:

• Ability to clear all open tabs
• Partial open state vs. fully open state (whether or not tab closes after opening or switching to another tab)
• Etc.

Already mentioned in my other tickets, but already a huge fan of this app after playing around with it! Was considering building something similar, but no longer given how robust Dataflare is :)

Feel free to ignore this request given how nitty it is.

• Ability to clear all open tabs

You can do this using ctrl + shift + w.
Help & Feedback -> Keyboard Shortcuts -> Tab

• Partial open state vs. fully open state (whether or not tab closes after opening or switching to another tab)

I don't quite understand what this means: close the current tab when a new tab is opened?
Like "workbench.editor.enablePreview": true in VS Code?

@wyhaya Thanks for the tip about clearing with the shortcut! Would be helpful to right click on tabs and have context menu actions in general for things like this as well.

Yep, I was referring to the "workbench.editor.enablePreview": true behavior in VSCode! I'd find "temporary" tabs helpful when quickly clicking through a bunch of tables in Dataflare (replacing the currently open preview tab with the next table I'm trying to open and preview without having to clear all the tabs later).

I forgot about that; it will appear in the next version.

@wyhaya Similar question -- will this update also include a context menu when right clicking on rows? I noticed the only way to delete a row is to use the backspace shortcut when the row is selected. Would be nice to have:

1. Context menu when right clicking a row to delete the row (along with other common actions)
2. UI (button) in the side panel when a row is selected to delete the selected row.

Dataflare v2.7.2 has been released, adding a context menu on Tabs.

Normally, you can bring up this context menu by right-clicking on any cell, this feature is always there, but you can't bring up the context menu?

@wyhaya Thanks for pushing the new update! The right click on rows only works when clicking on data columns, but does not work when right clicking on the cell that contains the row number (far left).
