Window that shows debugger / output - not clearing when running again (windows split with each run)

Answered

So after the recent update (seems to happen on Pycharm as well), the window that shows the debugger or output at the bottom will be split when the a program is executed again. If I execute the program again, window is split again.

Is there a way to disable this behavior?

Did you pin any tabs? Do you run exactly the same run/debug configuration? Was the previous run/debug finished?

No pin tabs.  And yeah running the same.  It happens when running the app and then debugging but I don't think it's isolated to this.

This behavior is by design, you see 2 different tool windows in the split view, one for Run and another for Debug.

IDE cannot reuse Run tool window for Debug and vice versa.

You can disable the split view so that Run is displayed on top of Debug.

I mean I've been using Intellij for some time and never had this happened before the latest update.  It could be coincidental though and I enabled it by accident. How do I disable?
