Add option for Preview to not auto-close when Orion looses focus

codefriar

I'd like the option for the preview window to stay around after Orion looses focus. I click on PR's to review in slack, and they open in preview, which is great, but if I switch back to Slack to ping the dev, the window closes. I'd like to have an option to leave preview open until I manually close it, or move it to the main window.

I like to have transient windows stick around, as a 'todo' list of things. My specific use case centers around code reviews. I:

Click on a link in slack to a GitHub PR that I've been assigned to review.
Almost always, mid-review I'll have to reach out to the developer to ask a question, and I alt-tab away from Orion back to slack.
(Currently) this closes the preview window. I'd like a settings option to keep the preview window open, even if I switch to a different app.

Hey,

Yes, I see how you work.
But you see, in my case for example, it works out well for me 🙂

However, in the upcoming releases, it will be possible to open a link in Focus mode. Would that work for you, for instance?
