Tab resets when changing viewports

[JohnPixle]

Hey team, while working on the latest starter site I came across a weird issue which is very annoying and breaks the momentum.

When attempting to change the value for a different viewport, the style tab changes, and I need to navigate my way back to the specific control. I created a quick video to showcase what really happens.

This behaviour applies on every control.

Thanks for your time and attention!

This is happening because everything is destroyed and reinitialized when you transition from Desktop to Tablet/Mobile. If you go from Tablet to Mobile or vice versa, you will see that this effect does not happen since it is just a window resize.

This is a Gutenberg quirk.

Hey! I understand why it happens and that it might be GB related, but it really turns the workflow into a very inefficient experience. I have had a hard time building the latest starter site with Otter needing to make all the responsive adjustments.

Anything we could do at our end? We can't really leave this as it is 🤔 .

I think I have a solution similar to the trick that we did with CSS for FSE.
