Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added right-click context menus to document tabs and empty tab-strip space, with options for closing documents, creating or opening documents, and revealing a document in the file manager.
    • Tab menus also include options to move a document to a new window or consolidate windows; these options are currently disabled.

📝 Walkthrough

Document tab context menus now provide shared document actions and tab-specific window and file-location actions. The empty tab-strip area also opens a context menu. Selected commands run before the existing close handling.

Changes: Document tab context menus

Layer / File(s) Summary
Menu rendering and command dispatch
crates/ui-egui/src/chrome.rs
Tab and empty-strip context menus offer Close, Close All, New Document, and Open Document. Tab menus also include disabled window actions and a path-dependent Reveal in Finder or Show in Folder action. Selected commands are dispatched before close handling.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 64750

These context-menu edge cases can close an unintended document, offer an unavailable action, or reveal the wrong file. They are localized and recoverable, so the change is mergeable with owner awareness and follow-up.

Review details

Systems and components

  • observed — crates (service) was modified; 1 changed file maps to changed impact.

Before / after behavior

  • observed — Modified behavior in crates/ui-egui/src/chrome.rs: doc_tabs now collects document paths for tab-specific reveal actions and initializes storage for a command selected from a context menu.
  • observed — Modified behavior in crates/ui-egui/src/chrome.rs: Each tab now opens render_tab_menu from its context menu, passing that document’s path and shared close/command state.
  • observed — Modified behavior in crates/ui-egui/src/chrome.rs: The unused strip area now opens the shared context menu without tab-specific actions, using the active tab index or zero when no tab is active.
  • observed — Modified behavior in crates/ui-egui/src/chrome.rs: A selected menu command is invoked before close handling; absent a command, the existing close path proceeds.

Disable Close when no tab is active.

Home can appear over open documents. On that screen, the empty-strip menu still enables Close and targets index 0. Selecting it can close the first open document or start its save prompt, even though no tab is active. Pass an optional index and disable Close when it is None.

Disable reveal when no file-manager service exists.

When a document has a saved path but app.services.reveal is absent, this menu enables reveal. The existing command-availability test disables file.reveal in that state, and the handler returns "no file manager here". Include service availability in this menu’s enabled condition.

Reveal the tab’s document, not the active document.

When a saved inactive tab selects this action, file.reveal ignores the "path" parameter. The dispatcher calls io::reveal, which reads the active document’s path. The file manager therefore shows the wrong file. Make the command resolve the selected tab’s document, and keep that selection constrained to open documents.

Thanks @MajedAlaejem! A few things before this can land: (1) Reveal in Finder sends file.reveal with a path, but file.reveal ignores its params and reveals the active document, so on a background tab it shows the wrong file. (2) The seven new tl! strings ("Consolidate All to Here", "Move to New Window", "Reveal in Finder", "Open Document…", …) need catalog rows, or lines in untranslated_messages.txt, or the i18n test fails. (3) Please use the shared menu widgets rather than hard-coded row sizes and styling, drop the disabled placeholder rows, and add a short description, a test, and the public source for each item.
