FloatPanel Status Change on Closure

[brandon-herrada-wdc]

Issue

FloatPanel does not initiate a status change when clicking the close icon. I think it is due to JsPanel not sending a status change for close.

Example Solution

Add onbeforeclose option to config in _scripts:

onbeforeclose: function(panel, status, closedByUser) { data.status = 'closed' }

This should ensure that a status change is issued for closure.

Additional context

This feature would allow a watcher monitoring FloatPanel status to send an update on window closure. For example, I was running a dtale session with an html iframe pointing to the dtale session url inside of the floatpanel. I wanted to be able to kill the session when I close the floatpanel.

Wow. Are you using dtale with Panel? Could you share a minimum, reproducible example (on Discourse) (with the FloatPanel)?

Added example to Discourse: FloatPanel with Dtale Session and Status Change on Closure.

I followed another users example to get the dtale redirected through float panel: Can I use dtale in Panel?.
