It's a Windows software modeling app (runs under Wine on Linux too)

I only know EA Sports.. hehe 🙂 OK!

About the video above: When "Second Item" is added first, it stays first, even when "Contacts" is added after it.

Is this the desired behavior, or should "Contacts" appear above "Second Item" always?

Clicking around Dreamweaver, EA, Visual Studio, and IntelliJ...

Maybe multiexpand should be false by default as well..

I think this summarizes the behavior...It looks like the tools have the concept of a Group. In the case of your single 3 item group, the other tools are displaying them exclusively or as part of a secondary tabbing structure. For example, in IntelliJ, I have Favorites, EJB, and Web in the lower-left and Project and Structure in the upper-left. I either show Project or Structure so the ordering isn't relevant. VisualStudio, EA, and Dreamweaver let you combine items in this thing I'm calling a Group so that they themselves are tabbed. This makes the ordering irrelevant because the particular tab is either showing or it's not showing.

Not sure if you wanted to take all that on. For your case I think it should map the button order since "last closed" probably isn't all that important

Interesting. OK, I'll do that. It could even be configurable later. Bottom line is that we need to support groups down the line, but I won't add that feature now. Would like features to be added when people need them.

Taking a break now, will fix ordering and then work on better Workspace integration later tonight 🙂

Great. For me, if this gets hooked up to keyboard shortcuts, i'd like the items to appear in a predictable location so that i can press Alt+1 and get the item in the top left displayed consistently

@carlw - zero install video?

Something @edvin put together to show a basic theme capability

I got the insertion order worked out.

Wonder if we should add an optional icon to UIComponent. It could be used as the window icon when a view is the root of a window, in the Workspace header, and also in the Drawer. There are probably multiple other use cases as well.

They would be useful I think

I want your drawer but I wonder if it supports my usecase

I will show you tonight when I am in the hotel

(who me, bored?)

Now's the time for use cases!

@User uploaded a file: Dynamic drawers per docked view

The above snippet shows how views can add drawers in ondock, which will automatically disappear when the view is undocked. It's also showing how a view's icon is reused in the Drawer (The drawer item is a View)

The kphoto program as a kind of drawer on the right side

@User uploaded a file:

My use case is where the drawer opens like in the animated gif and the other two are not “drawer controlled"

Does it have to overlay the other content, or can it displace it? Are you fine with the button being vertical?

You can not see it here put it 'pushes' the data grid to a smaller width

Button vertical is no problem

I did not like my current solution
