Re: [cdt-dev] Improvement on Memory Search Result Page

Hi Lisa-Marie,

Thank you for raising this - I just spent a few minutes experimenting with this and certainly the current design is not great if they are in the same tab group, which is the default perspective layout!

Please do submit a PR for this.

Hello,

 

I am writing regarding a potential improvement for the Memory Search Result Page https://github.com/eclipse-cdt/cdt/blob/main/memory/org.eclipse.cdt.debug.ui.memory.search/src/org/eclipse/cdt/debug/ui/memory/search/MemorySearchResultsPage.java#L52).

 

In the current behavior, the Memory Browser and Memory views will jump to the memory address after a user selects a value from the Memory Search Result list. However, if the views belong to the same tab group as the Search view, then it might not be very intuitive for the user to switch back to one of the Memory views and see the effect of the selection.

 

My proposal would be to add on the memory address selection event (from the Search view) the possibility to refocus on the Memory Browser/ Memory view.

 

I would be interested in creating a PR for this improvement if it proves to be a good idea.

 

Kind regards,

Lisa-Marie Saru
