Hello,
When I run code command, for example "code test.yaml", it opens "test.yaml" in a new window. See below
I want to open it in a new tab. (in the example above, to open it next to "commands.txt").
I am looking for some guidance on how to have the files specified via "code" command opened in a new tab, not a new window.
This is how I have my related settings:
Thank you in advance for your help!
Did you try code --reuse-window test.yaml?
Thank you for the suggestion, Viorel. Just tried but it's the same behavior. It opens the file in a new window.
