Highlights
- Added IDEA-style multi-project workflows: choose whether another project opens in this window or a new window, and persist that preference in Settings.
- Added independent project sessions in one app window, with equal-width project tabs for fast switching without mixing editor, terminal, Git, Maven, run, debug, tree, or layout state.
Workspace improvements
- Added a project-opening prompt with This Window, New Window, and Don't ask again options.
- Added a full-width project tab bar with balanced spacing, rounded active and hover states, stable close controls, and horizontal scrolling when space is limited.
- Added open-project switching to the project menu and preserved unsaved-change handling when closing projects or quitting the app.
Interface refinements
- Updated the Git tool-window icon to match the IDEA visual language.
- Removed persistent separators between workspace modules while retaining hover and drag feedback.
- Refined run configuration selection, contextual settings navigation, tooltips, and Simplified Chinese localization.
