What can I say? I have a gift.

Looks cool. I will have to give this a try. Thanks!

I tweeted this hard. Nice one!

Thanks! I’d been thinking about making this for a while because I really wanted it, and then one day things just reached that point where I had to do it and couldn’t sleep until I got it done. Glad you like it!

Very nice! If you made it a WindowCommand, rather than a TextCommand, then it’d work in panes that don’t have any files. Currently, if you create a pane, and then focus it immediately, you aren’t able to move back.
On the nitpicky side of things, there’s a few print statements still in the code, and your readme still mentions the old name

Edit: Apparently I’m foolish, and was looking at the wrong repo

Awesome plugin I have a few requests;

1. Carry and Create would be awesome
2. Destroy and move current tabs to new panel
3. GoTo support
4. Save as layout? So you can go to a new project and just enable a certain layout?

Seriously though this is brill

Not so foolish, except for the readme, it looks you’re right

Luckily those two things have just been fixed! (by a pull request from someone else!) And I think I’m just gonna delete the old repo.
Thanks!

1. I’m pretty certain you can chain commands in keybindings (or was that only in Sublime Text 1?). If not, a carry+create could be added.
2. Can you describe this in more detail? Are you saying when you destroy a pane you want all the tabs in it to go to the newly-focussed pane?
3. Do you want the commands to show up in the command palette?
4. Save as layout could be pretty awesome. It also would be really easy… lemme see what I can do.

Didn’t know about chaining keybindings i’ll take a look at that

Lets says you have one pane open with two tabs (HTML & CSS), we then create a new pane and move the CSS file over to it so we can compare HTML & CSS. I then wish to go back to a single pane but keep all files open, so I would like to destroy the selected pane while moving its files to the last active one.

Yep!

Awesome

Isn’t it how it works currently ?
Closing a pane never close the files it contains, ST2 move it to another pane. I don’t know if it is the last active one or the previous one.

Sounds like he wants a command that will close the pane of the active view, rather than one in a specifiable direction from it.

Oh, I see. This is actually more difficult because if you have more than two panes, where do you and your files end up? That’s why you can only destroy a different pane. If you’ve got two panes, just destroy the other one and everything should work…?

where do you and your files end up?

I think you’d still key in a direction, it would just mean destroy current pane, move in the direction specified, drag the views, making the currently active view active in the group dragged to.

adzenith, I don’t know if it’s wanted or needed, but I’ve made a sublime-menu file for Origami for personal use for those times I forget the shortcuts. Let me know if you want to take a look at it.

Awww please share this or send a pull request!

Accepted the pull request! Thanks!

Great! Glad I could contribute.

I see your menu items and I raise you one a full set of commands:

	{ "command": "create_pane", "args": {"direction": "up"}, "caption": "Origami: Create Pane Above" },
	{ "command": "create_pane", "args": {"direction": "down"}, "caption": "Origami: Create Pane Below" },
	{ "command": "create_pane", "args": {"direction": "right"}, "caption": "Origami: Create Pane Right" },
	{ "command": "create_pane", "args": {"direction": "left"}, "caption": "Origami: Create Pane Left" },
	{ "command": "travel_to_pane", "args": {"direction": "up"}, "caption": "Origami: Focus on Pane Above" },
	{ "command": "travel_to_pane", "args": {"direction": "down"}, "caption": "Origami: Focus on Pane Below" },

Origami is a great plugin but I thought (correctly, as it turned out) that they keybindings were too convoluted for me to remember. I liked the idea of putting them in a menu, but I prefer leveraging ST2’s command palette where possible, hence the above.

I’ve been using this for a couple hours now and I find myself in a bit of a UX muddle. I have incorporated @nizur’s idea of above/below instead of @adzenith’s up/down (which made more sense when using the keybindings), although I do sometimes mix them up. For example, it may make more sense to say “move file up” while also saying “clone file above” (the first refers to the movement of the file, while the other refers to the position of the pane).

I think “move” is better than “carry” and most anything is better than “travel”, although my current “focus” doesn’t work very well with ST’s fuzzy search (because of the plethora of “file” commands).

Apologies if the above couple paragraphs made no sense. If you do use the commands, please let me/us/someone know if you have any suggestions on how to improve them.

Thanks,
Alex

I installed this plugin last night; I don’t see the preferences menu. Would be nice. On OSX, cmd+k is not invoking origami.
