As a Roblox developer, I sometimes accidentally close a file when I do not want to do so.
The reason why I sometimes accidentally close a file is because there is a small ‘x’ inside of the viewport tab that I sometimes accidentally click on and then the current file closes. It’s the one highlighted in this picture.
The placement of this little ‘x’ is a bit awkward because I often switch between scripts and the world view by clicking on these tabs. And with just a small misclick I sometimes accidentally close my studio instance without meaning to. Especially in Team Create where studio saves changes automatically this will close the file without warning - which can be annoying when you have to reload a large file.
I know some developers who do use this button to close a file so I understand that outright removing the button might not be ideal, but I would like to see some improvement to be made at the least.
Perhaps it can be changed so that you have to right-click on it first before you can close it? Or maybe studio can always show a warning when clicking on this button, even when the place file has already been saved? I don’t think a small amount of added friction would matter much for an action you only take once per session, but I’d like to hear other people’s thoughts as well.
