Vimode does not work on the split screen

[salil19]

Hi,
When I open Geany and I have single screen, the vimode plugin works fine. When I split the screen, either horizontal or vertical, the vimode plugin does work on the newly opened screen. It continues to open in the original screen.
Can you please help me resolve the issue. Here are the details:

Split screen is a plugin and vimode is a plugin.

Plugins do not know about the existence of other plugins so its unsurprising that vimode does not know about the second screen.

Yes, I'm afraid this is currently "unfixable" unless we add some split screen support directly to Geany.
