Two tabs about ui-router

[timkindberg]

It is supported in a way, though you cannot have two views tracking their own states independently you can have one state populate multiple views at various state levels.

Check out the Multiple Named Views section in the guide: https://github.com/angular-ui/ui-router/wiki/Multiple-Named-Views

Essentially you'd need "orthogonal regions" in the state chart / state machine to support this sort of thing. Maybe something we can investigate in v2, but the way states relate to both ui-view directives and to URLs would be quite a lot more complicated in such a model.

Yeah, I can't think of much either. Another case I though about was: navigational views works really well, eg: display a single selected tab. But if I turn them non-navigational, eg: display all tabs at once (portlets), then it's unclear how it'll work. Maybe another directive for that.

I think for that sort of stuff to work you'd have to reliquish any control over what the URLs look like, and just let the framework make them up. They'd probably end up being quite big and ugly (ASP.net view state or the URLs generated by Wicket come to mind).
