Double clicking opens duplicate notebook instances on MacOS #586
Comments
Thank you for opening your first issue in this project! Engagement like this is essential for open source projects! 🤗 |
@karlglazebrook thanks for reporting this, currently a new session is started for each file opened using double click. I plan to add options to open in the existing session when applicable. |
Indeed, thanks for the response and sorry for the slow reply. I thought I had enabled notifications but clearly I had not. 'open in existing session' would be a valuable enhancement and provide a more integrated (in to the host OS) experience, which I think is part of the point of this app. It would also alleviate the fact that app startup is quite slow. Meanwhile I will be careful and bare in mind your workaround. Keep up the good work! This app is really needed. |
PS I see my issue survived the triage. Great! |
Any news on this? It still happening, if there is a setting I can't find it |
@karlglazebrook we haven't added support for this yet. sorry. I will keep this issue open since we would like to have this supported. |
Yes please, it does drive me batty! :-) |
There seems to be no progress on this? I thought it was a minor issue and seems relevant to new features like 'Zen mode' when opening files in MacOS finder. |
A few more comments @mbektas
Fixing the duplicates bug would be big win :-) |
I was trying JupyterLab Desktop for the first time and set it to launch when double clicking on .ipynb files (which is nice).
The problem is it opens these in a new window each time AND duplicates all notebooks from the previous window!
So if I have files
Untitled1.ipynb Untitled2.ipynb Untitled3.ipynb Untitled4.ipynb
... etcThen double clicking on
Untitled1.ipynb
gives me a window with aUntitled1.ipynb
tabIf I then double click on
Untitled2.ipynb
I get two windows -the new one hasUntitled1.ipynb
ANDUntitled2.ipynb
tabs while the old one still has theUntitled1.ipynb
tab. Further they seem to be independent instances so editing oneUntitled1.ipynb
does not change the other. Lots of possibilities for conflicts.If I double click on a third file this gets worse...I could not find a settings option to change this.
This really needs to be fixed!
