Atom cannot start, when closed with markdown previews only

[simonbelmont]

Hello,

I am encountering this bug, since I installed the markdown-preview-plus package.
Everything is working fine, but when I close Atom with only a preview left open, it starts "blank" the next time, without the possibilty to open a file. I then have to close and open Atom again, to make it work.
If the .md file is open as well, everything is working fine.

Debian 10, all up to date.

thanks for the great work

I could not reproduce on Atom 1.43.0 on Linux. At least not what is described here.

Well, there is an issue that the preview loses some state information after restart, and if it can't restore those bits from an editor (because it's closed), it gets stuck on the initialization stage, which looks like this:

Did you mean that, or is it a different issue?

lierdakil,

thanks for your answer.
It looks a little different here (no Placeholder Tab, no Symbol in the middle, only the menu), but it might be the same.
And as mentioned above, I cannot open any tabs (new file, load file, preferences) until I restarted Atom. No error messages, just nothing is happening.

I tried with 1.41.0 and with 1.43.0.
Disabling other packages (I am only using 5 that don't ship with Atom) made no difference.
I am running Debian 10 Buster, Mate Desktop, almost fresh install.
thanks for your help
