Disable split screen when opening a file

Whenever I try to open a new file, it’s splitting the screen. Is there a way I can just open the file in the same screen instead of splitting it again?

Thanks!

I have also faced this issue… idx seems to be locking the groups hence it’s opening in split view…

Has this been always happening? Or is this something that started happening recently?

This seems new… Have faced it only for flutter projects and I think a react project…

Good to know! Let me flag this to our team and see what is going on :slight_smile:


So what seems to be happening is the preview tabs are locked by default (think this is a new behavior) so if I drag that over to where the editor tabs are just so I can have it full-screen everything else in that group gets locked… so any new file gets slipt to the right…

and if I unlock it when the page reloads, it goes back to the original layout, so I need to restart it again…

hope this makes sense…
