Description

@bpasero

Given the introduction of the grid widget, we should explore to use it as the driver for the workbench layout, at least for the parts that are connected via sashes:

  • sidebar (left / right)
  • panel (bottom / right)
  • editor area

Grid widget prerequisites

  • allow to mark a specific view in the grid as the one to resize when the outer container grows (this is to make sure the editor area always increases in size if the window gets larger)
  • allow to "snap to hide" so that e.g. you can use the mouse to make the sidebar small enough that it hides and move back to show it again
