From 6877a61ef40ad0d8e762a28d0a3f5fa9bfefaff2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Gabriel Schneider Date: Mon, 27 Jul 2026 10:52:32 -0300 Subject: an output pane is not a document: +Search/+Help split below the pane that asked, never into a column of their own placeDoc classified any file pane as a doc, so a +Search opened from a lone shell took layoutInsertColumn(0) - a whole new leftmost column, shoving every existing column sideways - and an open results list was then eligible as the split parent for a real file, stacking documents under the list. An output buffer has no file behind it and no Save; it is the result list belonging to the pane that asked for it. Now it is that on both sides of the rule: it splits below from_id whatever kind of pane that is (a source that died falls back to stackDocLeft, the same last resort a full column bar uses), and it is skipped when a real doc hunts for its split parent, so a file opened from a search row joins the docs instead of the results. Real docs are untouched: fsearch/rsearch/look-file/tutor/lookpanes all pass unchanged. psearch is the proof - its results snap was two columns (the shell pushed to x=70, its gutter run at 70-71) and is now one 140-wide column with the +Search stacked below at the same x origin. --- docs/design.typ | 5 ++++- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'docs') diff --git a/docs/design.typ b/docs/design.typ index c7284049..118459e1 100644 --- a/docs/design.typ +++ b/docs/design.typ @@ -211,7 +211,10 @@ backwards, duplicate dirs skipped; absolute words try one dir and stop) so a relative name is openable from any window that can see it; dir → shell + `ls` in source column (dedup by cwd), file → file pane at line (dedup by path, first doc opens left column and may evict a lone pristine shell; later docs -split below the existing doc), image ext → image pane.
