Description
As of Positron 2024.04.0 (Universal) build 1561, if you use "View: Toggle X" for an item in the secondary side bar like Variables or Plots:
it will hide the entire secondary side bar. Is that expected? Is there something better we can do there? Certainly I would expect "View: Toggle Secondary Side Visibility" to do so but seems aggressive for other items.
