Description
Description of the Issue
This was previously closed under #1642 as part of a cleanup effort assuming this issue was no longer relevant with new versions of NPP. This request is still relevant.
I use NPP in mono-instance mode and have it configured to remember current session for next launch. I am requesting an option to always default to a NEW TAB each time I launch it (whether NPP is closed or even if already open).
I launch NPP via a quick cmd line shortcut whenever I need it again to quickly paste or jot down some important information I need to keep. NPP currently opens up to an existing tab/file I had open in the previous session and I inadvertently paste that information into said existing file/tab. My intention was to store this in a new tab quickly like I did with Notepad.
I do not wish to use multi instance of NPP as I often leave many files/tabs open to return to later and is the reason I use NPP over Notepad.
Steps to Reproduce the Issue
- Install NPP with default of mono instance mode and remember current session for next launch
- Open NPP and multiple tabs
- Minimize or close NPP
- Attempt to launch NEW instance of NPP (via your preferred method)
Expected Behavior
If NPP is already open, regain focus and default to NEW TAB
If NPP is closed, reopen with previous session in tact and default to NEW TAB
Actual Behavior
NPP opens or regains focus but the last used tab has focus vs. a new tab
