File tabs too sensitive on clicking with slight drag upward . .

#1

Often we click on a tab head and inadvertently also push the tab head a little.

This can often cause a moving of the tab concerned into an entirely new workspace.

It is no longer open in its original workspace.

This is annoying as one can often close the mistakenly created new workspace before looking at the file name on its sole tab . . . and now one has to figure out which file is missing from the original workspace and re-open it.

Can we remove this sensitivity on tab-clicking, please ? People needing to remove a file tab and put it in a separate workspace could do so from a right-click and selecting the relevant option.

Slightly moving a tab shouldn’t do anything. What version of Sublime Text are you running? What operating system?

This should be already fixed in the current development build.

I’m getting ST via the apt packages.

So I’lll have to wait till build 4205 becomes an apt update, it seems.

Unless I remove the apt ST4 and personally install ST4 b. 4205 from the .deb folder.
