Description

When a qmd file and the preview pane are tabs of the same windows group and quarto.render.previewReveal is set, if I save a change in the qmd file the preview is revealed for an instant and then the qmd file is brought to the front again.

  • Code 1.86.0
  • Quarto ext 1.110.1

Research direction

Reproduce the behavior with a qmd file and preview pane in the same window group, using Code 1.86.0, Quarto extension 1.110.1, and quarto.render.previewReveal. Trace the save-triggered preview reveal and subsequent focus change; done means the preview remains in front after saving.
