BC 3.0.1, Windows XP SP2. "Hide tab bar if single tab" disabled.
Launch BC. There is a Home tab. Double-click folder compare session. Home tab replaced with session tab (why?). Double-click a text file. A second tab for the text file created. Click Home button--text file tab REPLACED by Home tab (why?). Select session tab and double-click text file. New tab created for file comparison. There are now three tabs: Session, Home, and file comparison (active). Click Home button. File comparison tab REPLACED by a SECOND Home tab. Close each tab in turn by clicking on its close button. When last tab closed, APPLICATION EXITS.
Clearly, tab handling has some issues.
There should always be exactly one Home tab. Clicking the Home button should simply navigate to this tab. (In fact, if this were implemented correctly, the Home button would be redundant, no?) Closing a tab should never cause the application to close. Again, if the Home tab could not be closed, this would cease to be an issue.
