Middle click a listed tab to close that tab

Peter Eliot vor 10 Jahren • 0
I would love if middle-clicking on a link in Tabs Outliner closed the tab, instead of opening a copy of it. Middle click normally closes a tab when you are using the normal interface, and I think this is a natural extension to the Outliner.

I find the trash button cumbersome because it is small, only appears when a link is hovered over, and doesn't appear correctly when you click it once (you have to move the mouse at least 1 pixel for it to re-appear for the tab that moved under the mouse).

In the same vein, shift+middle-click would make a very good shortcut for the green X, to save a tab.

Background processes

Jorr vor 11 Jahren • aktualisiert von vladyslav volovyk vor 11 Jahren • 1

TO seems to hold in memory active Chrome processes even for persisted tabs that should not be open. Is this necessary, because apart from visual clarity, I really use TO to reduce memory usage of Chrome and I am unsure as to whether this really happens?


The screenshots below are from Chrome running *only* the Tabs Outliner window

TO does not hold in memory any Chrome processes for closed from it (or by Chrome itself) tabs.


You can easily see same artifacts on a Chrome without installed TO or with disabled Tabs Outliner. That's how Chrome work.

Expand all

Bruce Cannon vor 9 Jahren • aktualisiert von vincenzo vor 5 Jahren • 7

I see mention in forums and articles of a way to expand all nodes, but I don't find this in the help panels. If it exists, how? If not, can we add a way to expand all nodes? Especially important since search only seems to traverse visible nodes.

Prevent window nodes from opening children.

tabsoutdbes1 vor 10 Jahren • aktualisiert von vladyslav volovyk vor 10 Jahren • 1
How do I prevent window nodes from automatically opening their child nodes.  This is a feature that I never use.  And when I accidentally click on a window node label (instead of the plus sign next to it to display the child nodes) Tabs Outliner will attempt to open all of the child nodes (there might be 1000s) in new tabs.

I really want to disable this feature and am willing to hack TO to make it so.  If this is what it will take please point me in the right direction.

Thank you.

Dragging from trash/save should cancel trash/save instead of dragging node

Peter Eliot vor 11 Jahren • aktualisiert von vladyslav volovyk vor 11 Jahren • 0
When you press (but don't release) on the trash/save buttons, but want to cancel, you can't cancel by moving the mouse outside the button; instead, it drags the node around. This is contrary to typical UI design where dragging off a pressed-but-not-released button cancels clicking the button, and causing no other effects.

Ideal behavior would be that dragging can only be initiated from click-dragging the node, but not when click-dragging from a trash/save button.

The same should apply to expand/collapse.

Hitting Esc should also cancel any unfinished operation. This works for dragging, but not for clicking buttons.

Simple vs Expert mode

Daniel Pettet vor 11 Jahren • aktualisiert von vladyslav volovyk vor 11 Jahren • 1
This app is promising but my first run experience was pretty bad. I got eye strain trying to work my way through the help info and struggled a little to understand all the new concepts and terminology. I consider myself a pro user (full stack web dev) so this is a worry.

I suggest you cut down on concepts and features to a bare minimum. What is required to make your app work? Call this simple mode. Add an option to enable expert (or experimental) mode where the other 50 options are available (see Chrome preferences as an example). This should also reduce your getting-started/help text drastically.

Another similar approach is to do what Apple does. Expert customisations and features exist but you have to be somewhat an expert to find out how to enable them. Therefore, there are really good default settings and the people who have niche setups can still enable them if they really need them. This should also reduce your support because experts generally understand expert features better.

I suggest you make 'groups/trays', separators, cloning and scrolling functions either way easier to use and understand or take them out of the default UI. You can also simply remind the user a few days after use that there are more features to discover so that you can still promote these cool concepts. It's all about making the first experience more enjoyable!

I think you are onto a good thing! I was about to make my own plugin before I found yours so I am very grateful for your efforts and time spent!

Not a bug

Google Search not in TO

MZ Guy vor 11 Jahren • aktualisiert von vladyslav volovyk vor 11 Jahren • 1

I am now looking at a Google search tab that isn't appearing in TO. I've scanned, looked at the location it should appear in, and even searched for the keywords in the TO window. I opened several windows as children from this search page, and they appear just fine, but they appear as children to the search window's parent.


I haven't seen this behavior before.


I don't know if this is related to the phantom tab bug I posted about a while back - a bug I still experience regularly.

Most likely it is the same problem. Close a duplicate for now

Crashing in Linux

MikeD vor 12 Jahren • aktualisiert vor 12 Jahren • 3

Hi, 


First, I think TO is fantastic. I use it on Windows with no problem, but when I run it in Chromium on Linux it crashes every few minutes. 


I'm curious to know where to start troubleshooting this. Is there a log somewhere or can I collect a stack trace? I'd be happy to run anything if it would help to isolate the problem. 


Thanks!

Mike
