Expected behavior
What do you think should happen?
A way to close a window/code overlay after clicking a link to a filename.
I could not find an ‘X' or a way to escape from this overlay. only option is to close the project.
Tried as many keyboard ways too. ESC, Ctrl-x, c, CTRL-ALT-W, so on.
Actual behavior
What actually happens?
Clicking the link from one of the “Reading the code” sections , it will open a black window with code in it that is in the exact center of the screen…. Clicking it multiple times opens a new one in cascade and the first one (bottom) is the one with the focus
A right click only returns ‘copy’
!! You cannot close the project either by CTRL-ALT-W or via F10 menu. !!
(you can open one tho)
How to reproduce
- Detail a step by step guide to reproduce the issue
- A screenshot or short video indicating the problem
- A copy of your code would help. Include: JS, HTML.
- Test your steps on a clean page to see if you still have an issue
I started a new project. Asked the AI to generate a simple page of a form with first name and last name and save to a DB.
when it was complete I expanded one of the “Reading the code” sections.
On the left, it has a clickable link. That link opens a window with the generated code but no way to close the window.
