Studio closes pane with each plot command

Tooling VS Code
1

After latest update VS code now closes the plotting pane and shifts focus to plot tab after each plot.
My first question is how do I stop this.
My second question is how do I disable these updates and pre-compilations each time I restart VS code.
They have been a source of unpredictability and instability in general.
Thank you.

I guess it is this issue https://github.com/julia-vscode/julia-vscode/issues/2618, isn‘t it?

Had the same behavior.

My solution:
In the menu of the code pane(“more actions” - the 3 dots in the upper, right corner) , I selected “lock group” and the plot-pane was “normal” again on my PC.

You are correct, and it’s similar times.
Sounds like a real hassle and it seems to me the issue here is that VScode updates automatically with each launch of the program.
Seems like it would be a good idea to disable this feature except for versions that were verified to not break the Julia environment.

Well done!
I tried this before with the plots pane but it didn’t solve the problem.
