[BUG]

[raguay]

Summary:
fig 1.0.33 (B92) on Catalina: sidebar shows up when fig starts but disappears after running anything now or changing focus to another application. I can run apps from the command line only.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Start fig normally
2. Run a fig command and exit, or switch window focus and go back to the terminal

Expected Results:
fig sidebar should reappear.

Actual Results:
The sidebar disappears and never comes back until I restart fig. I can run commands on the command line like fig dir. But the normal sidebar never appears again.

System information:
OS: MacOS Catalina 10.15.7 (19H114)
Terminal: iterm2 3.4.3
Version of Fig: 1.0.33 (B92)

Additional Notes:

The fig version before this one only had issues when my program set the display to 7, which should of gone back to the sidebar. Now, it's having the issue on everything. Also, the docs no longer tell how an application should revert control back to the sidebar.

UPDATE Observation

Creating a new tab sometimes brings fig to be visible, but not always.

Also, I just noticed all the processes started by fig:

Found something interesting:

I removed all the backgrounding commands (ie: &) and disown from the fig.fish script. It now shows the main menu faster. It still doesn't reappear when I leave a fig app, but moving the window has it show up again. I don't have to reload fig, just giggle the window.

Hey Richard! A few things here:

1. As we focus on autocomplete, it is getting hard for us to give full time support for a lot of the early alpha stuff we built. In saying this, we do plan on getting back to it very soon (runbooks, sidebar etc) and making it better and of course more stable!
2. That's really strange
3. One solution I can think of here is we let you downgrade to the last stable version of runbooks. This will mean autocomplete won't work (or it will be buggy so you'll have to turn it off), but runbooks will... Probably ~v1.0.15...

I will send you a private message now with the link. Anyone reading this who wants to downgrade, please just message me in our slack: https://withfig.com/community
