Expected Behavior

only one calendar window should exist in the sidebar at any time.

Current behaviour

repeatedly running "open calendar" reopens new windows in the sidebar.

Reproduction

On Desktop:

1. Have Obsidian open with Calendarium installed and a calendar created
2. click Open Calendarium
   The sidebar opens with the calendar view
3. click Open Calendarium again
   You will notice a second Icon in the sidebar (you may have to increase the sidebar width so that all icons are visible)
   

On Mobile:

Here is where I first encountered this. When using the android app, The available sidebar views are displayed in a dropdown. Afte using Open Calendarium multiple times, this menu is extremely cluttered:

Which Operating Systems are you using?

• Android
• iPhone/iPad
• Linux
• macOS
• Windows

Obsidian Version Check

v1.8.7 and 1.7.7

Plugin Version

1.5.0

Confirmation

• I have disabled all other plugins and the issue still persists.

Possible solution

workaround

manually editing workspace.json and removing the "type": "CALENDARIUM" leaf objects, removes the redundant views
This JQ command does that (it deletes all in the sidebar, you have to reopen one):

jq 'del(.right.children[].children[] | select(.state.type | . == "CALENDARIUM" or . == "CALENDARIUM_AGENDA"))'

ideas on how to approach

One Idea would be to make the view a singleton, only ever having a single view.

But it should be discussed if having a calendar in the sidebar as well as as a tab in the workspace is a required feature. Than I believe the number of views should only be limited in the sidebar and not everywhere
