New tab button opens active file in notepad

So, I have some notepad files open in groupy. When I click on the new tab button ('+'), Groupy opens the active tab text file instead of a blank instance of notepad. It only opens blanks instance of notepad if the active tab is unsaved. Is there a keyboard shortcut or setting to force Groupy to open a blank notepad file when the new tab button is clicked?

The risk in the way Groupy does this currently is overwriting a file where you unknowingly save new content to a previously saved file. This has happened to me.

Hello,

Sorry to hear you are having trouble.

Since you opened an instance of the app (a text file for example) that had a command-line entry to a specific file, it opens that file again with the + button. This was not always the behavior but it is now.

I have requested a new feature that would get around it, like a Ctrl + Click of the + icon to open a blank instance.

Thank you for the feedback.
