Currently, detached windows have a window header for collapsing header and close button, which takes quite a lot of space above each window. The flexibility of splits are also limited as I could not collapse nodes (technically Leafs) individually.
I'd like to suggest a different design of window/node controls as shown in the screen recording below. (Pull request #237)
Screen.Recording.2024-05-13.at.22.24.45.mov
This design is more similar to ImGui's approach. (No worries, this design works with the add tab button as well, see #237 for a sample implementation)
Here are some advantages I could come up with this design:
More flexibility with collapsing docked Leafs, including those in the main surface.
More compact windows.
Clearer display of what tabs are included in a collapsed window.
Closing all tabs on a node is sometimes more useful than closing an entire surface.
Potential for further functionality (e.g. detaching a window with all tabs in a Leaf by dragging out the Leaf from the collapsing button, similar to that in ImGui).
Significant drawbacks:
More space taken for fully collapsed windows.
No more buttons for collapsing or closing an entire detached window. (A workaround is to put those two buttons to the right-click context menu of the corresponding buttons in all tab bars)
May sacrifice a little bit of performance (not tested yet).
I'd like to hear some opinions (criticism?) before moving on in #237.
