### Description Addresses #6160 This change introduces the new console tab list view in the console pane behind the `positron.mulitpleConsoleSessions` feature flag. The console tab list follows the tab list pattern for accessibility: https://www.w3.org/WAI/ARIA/apg/patterns/tabs/examples/tabs-automatic/ This issue does not address #6199 which is related since the console tab list can be resized. The console tab list resizing behavior can definitely use some improvement but can be tackled as polish. ### Release Notes #### New Features - N/A #### Bug Fixes - N/A ### QA Notes Please see testing notes under #6160 ### Screenshots **Resize Console Pane** https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/3467f38e-4f54-4f65-b27f-ab0601117d1e **Switch Sessions** https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/70d1510f-4b91-45f7-a399-d3b146f49cd9

@softwarenerd The "conserve space" changes look great. I do have a question. I'd grab a screenshot/video but I'm unable to because the cursor changes when I do that for some reason (???). But basically, I'm getting the "I Beam" cursor when I hover over the path in the Console. I would expect to be able to drag and copy text or something with this cursor (which I cannot)? Maybe it should just be a default arrow cursor? |
Verified FixedPositron Version(s) : 2025.03.0-116 Test scenario(s)Verified that the new current working directory behavior for conserving space functions as expected. The reported cursor issue is a pre-existing problem, and a separate ticket has been opened to track it. Link(s) to test cases run or created:n/a |

Let's re-examine the layout for the console action bar at different widths and make it responsive. The right side of the console action bar get cut off at narrower widths.

The minimum width and height allowed for the application window is 400px by 270px.
The top action bar should be redesigned to consider how all the details for the console instance are rendered. The runtime session path name can be truncated and the action buttons can be collapse into a "..." dropdown menu.
