Tab change resets search or filter

[pmaas]

When you use the search (or filter) inside default tree tab panel and then change to another tab and go back to the tree panel, the tree is still filtered, but the search box is empty:

Hey, thanks for reporting!
It's actually not a bug with FlatNav, but rather a missing feature in Neos core:
Currently Tabs component just destroys the contents of invisible tabs (for performance reasons). In order to preserve their state one would have to keep their state outside of Tabs, e.g. in redux.
Alternatively we could create a variant of Tabs component that would just hide other tabs and not destroy them, but I'm not sure I'd be happy to use it here for performance reasons.

So if you are really keen on fixing it you'd need to move the search state to redux in Neos.
Personally I don't see it as a big issue though.

Hey @dimaip, thanks for the explanation. For me it's also not a big problem. I stumbled over it because the x to reset the filter is also gone. This leads to the situation that you have a filtered tree without the possibility to reset it (now you have to use the search again to be able to reset the tree). Maybe it's easier to reset the filter of the tree instead of keeping the search state outside of the tabs?

Maybe just fix the filter reset button?

Yes, but perhaps a bit irritating to reset a filter witch is no longer shown.
