Weird blank window when opening already-opened project

#1

Repro:

  • Open a “.sublime-project” project in Sublime Text 2
  • Leaving the project open, switch to Finder
  • Double-click the same “.sublime-project” file in Finder

Expected:

  • Sublime Text 2 activates and brings the project to the front

Actual:

  • Sublime Text 2 activates and brings the project to the front and then pops up a new, blank window (not tab) in front of the project window

Note that as per the repro above, the weird behavior only happens when the project is already open in Sublime Text 2.

This behavior makes it difficult/annoying to use project files with things like Spotlight or LaunchBar because the blank window is always popping up in front of the thing you want while you’re switching around.

Environment:
OS X 10.7.2 + Sublime Text 2 build 2165

Yeah, I’m seeing this too. It’s pretty annoying. Hopefully it will get fixed soon.
