Description
minor quibble but the errors in the side of the editor should be clickable to focus on them in the bottom pane, and defaults for the editor should be changed to prevent the bottom pane from showing automatically. provides a better UX.
Output from atom -v && apm -v
Atom : 1.32.2
Electron: 2.0.9
Chrome : 61.0.3163.100
Node : 8.9.3
apm 2.1.2
npm 6.2.0
node 8.9.3 x64
atom 1.32.2
python 2.7.15
git 2.19.2
Expected Behavior
- by default errors while coding should be highlighted without causing the editor to reposition text.
- nice to have: sidebar details should be clickable to display bottom pane with the clicked info focused.
Actual Behavior
by default bottom pane pops up on every minor error while working which is extremely jarring UX as it moves the text unexpectedly forcing the user to relocate their position.

You can disable the Focus the go-plus panel on failure setting to prevent the go-plus pane from opening when something fails.
The errors in the editor and the diagnostics panel are actually provided by atom-ide-ui. If it's the diagnostics panel that's bothering you, I would try disabling the Automatically show and hide the diagnostics panel setting under the atom-ide-ui package.
right, I found those settings. I'm putting forth that the defaults need to be changed.
