Language variant split view - editorState.getCurrent().variants active out of sync

I am writing a back-office plug-in and using the active property of the editorState.getCurrent().variants array to determine which variant is used. This works fine until you open a variant in split view. The active variant is the one that was already opened instead of the one you open in split view.

This is with umbraco v8.6.0

Hiya @stefankip,

Just wanted to let you know that we noticed that this issue got a bit stale and might not be relevant any more.

We will close this issue for now but we’re happy to open it up again if you think it’s still relevant (for example: it’s a feature request that’s not yet implemented, or it’s a bug that’s not yet been fixed).

To open it this issue up again, you can write @umbrabot still relevant in a new comment as the first line. It would be super helpful for us if on the next line you could let us know why you think it’s still relevant.

For example:

@umbrabot still relevant This bug can still be reproduced in version x.y.z

This will reopen the issue in the next few hours.

Thanks, from your friendly Umbraco GitHub bot 🤖 🙂
