Spyder: Editor - Cannot close a (vertical) split after open

[bigheadming]

Description

In editor, after splitting (vertically), when trying to 'close this panel' in the newly created split panel, an error returns.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. In editor, open some .py file.
2. Then, at the upper right corner of the editor panel, use the 'wheel' shape drop-down menu to choose 'split vertically'
3. Go to the newly created split panel, click on its 'wheel' shape drop-down menu, the error will appear.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect I can 'close this panel' to close the newly created split panel. It gives me an error instead.

Please provide any additional information below

@dalthviz, can you reproduce this?

[bigheadming]

Yes,  many times. On Aug 28, 2017 4:31 PM, Carlos Cordoba [e-mail] wrote:@dalthviz, can you reproduce this?

I was asking to @dalthviz.

This was supposed to be fixed in 3.2.1, so I don't understand what happens in your case.

I am using 3.2.1 but it happened twice to me today. I am away from my deck now.  I can try again later tonight.On Aug 28, 2017 4:45 PM, Carlos Cordoba [e-mail] wrote:I was asking to @dalthviz.

Hi, just back home and I am sure I can replicate. Here are the steps: 

1. Launch spyder.2. I have a .py file already opened since my last use. On the editor, click on the 'wheel' menu at the upper right corner. 3. Choose 'split vertically' (I also tried 'split horizontally, same). 4. Now, go to the newly created panel. Click the the 'wheel' menu at the upper right corner, and the error appears. 
   Notice that, the first time I tried, it seems working without the error. In this case, try to resize the newly created panel, and click on the 'wheel' menu, the error will appear.
   I installed via anaconda and update the my spyder 3.2.1 as well. My home computer is i5, windows 10 home, with 8Mb ram. Apart from spyder, I was also running a chrome, and openned 2 IE to look at same subdir. I am running python 2.7 using ipython as my console. 
   Please let me know if you need more info.
   Thanks.

I tried again this morning. I found that apart from: 
"Notice that, the first time I tried, it seems working without the error. In this case, try to resize the newly created panel, and click on the 'wheel' menu, the error will appear." 
Sometimes, if clicking the 'wheel' menu of the newly created panel and works without the error, then go ahead to choose 'close the panel'. Then go to the original panel and split again. This time, click on the 'wheel' menu of the newly created panel will trigger the error. 
Hope this help.
Thanks again.

@ccordoba12 testing in Python2 I can reproduce the problem.

[ccordoba12]

@dalthviz, thanks!

@andfoy, please take a look at this one.

[MalteMederacke]

The error still occures in Spyder 4.1, any ideas?

[dalthviz]

Hi @MalteMederacke could you provide the details of your setup (python version, Spyder version, dependencies, etc)? Also, could you provide a step by step to reproduce this (maybe a GIF to understand who is the error raising in your case) ? Thanks!
