Middle click a listed tab to close that tab
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
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

You can easily see same artifacts on a Chrome without installed TO or with disabled Tabs Outliner. That's how Chrome work.
Expand all
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.
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
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
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!
Google Search not in TO
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
Close tab and add to TO
Is there any quick way to close a tab from chrome but add it to TO for later?
But it's planed and next version will have several different ways to do so.
Crashing in Linux
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
