"send to" button to send tab to another window

Jim Witherspoon 11 years ago • 0

Would be nice to have a "send to" button in addition to each tab.  When "send to" button is clicked, user would be prompted to select from list of open windows.  Tab would then be sent to that window.  In many cases this could be a lot easier and faster than drag and drop.

Backup/export save not working?

Sirt 11 years ago • updated by Johana Moreno 11 years ago • 7

I must be doing something stupid, but the html file produced by saving the Tabs Outliner window either as html only or as a complete html (all nodes expanded) only contains a separator.


It would be great if this worked as expected, as I don't like dragging to an open window nor saving in MS Word format in order to have a Tabs Outliner backup file. 


Speaking of backup - any ideas how to streamline the process? Where is the Tabs Outliner data stored?


Here is the contents of the file produced for your enjoyment: (Thanks!)

option to sort last opened urls on top of the list/tree

Henrique L. 11 years ago • updated 11 years ago • 5

I have currently 310 urls on the list; so everytime tabs outliner opens, it is scrolled to the top, and I have to scroll til the end to see the newest urls opened; btw all others are closed and only a few are running in the active window.


If the order could be reversed it would work great!


thx again for this excellent extension!

Add an icon to quickly send users to this page so they can post feedback/requests

vittorio 12 years ago • updated by vladyslav volovyk 12 years ago • 5

At the moment, to find this page you have to potentially go thru four hopes:

the Chrome store details tab > the support forum > see the message from you directing people to the feedback forum > and then see the link in the feedback forum to this page.


If you want to solicit feedback on this page (and I do think this userecho/getsatisfication style format is the best way to do this kind of thing), then you should make it as easy as possible for users to find their way here.

I decide that I prefer to "solicit feedback" on my email from about box ; )

Distinctive badge for pinned or bookmarked tabs

The title says it all.  I think it would be nice if you add a badge to distinguish fixed or bookmarked tabs from normal tabs. Thanks in advance, and congratulations for the extension.

Launch TO before opening any Chrome windows

Loony Bin 10 years ago • updated by 𝐋 øяεηzo 9 months ago • 4
I have been trying to figure out a way to open my TO tree before opening Chrome itself (or at least a Chrome window). For me, that is simply easier since I always begin navigating to my tabs straight from TO anyway and always just close the first window that pops up when Chrome launches.

I know that TO can run without any Chrome windows open, so I thought there should be a way to just run it solo from the get-go. To figure this out I ended up running across these Chromium cmdline flags/switches and found one for launching extensions. So far, I have been successful in launching TO solo before Chrome, but I can only access the TO options page and not the actual tree.

In my case, the .exe path with flags looks like this:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" --profile-directory="Profile 1" --app-id="eggkanocgddhmamlbiijnphhppkpkmkl"
where Profile 1 is the user I want to open Chrome as and eggkanocgddhmamlbiijnphhppkpkmkl is the TO app-id, found in C:\Users\MyName\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Profile 1\Extensions (for Windows).

What I'd like to ask is:
1) Is there another, better way to accomplish this?
2) Can the json or js files be altered so that the app-id flag opens the tree view?
3) Could you add a button to the options page that opens the tree view? (not ideal, but probably easiest for you to implement)

...and since I'm not sure the app-ids are consistent across systems, I found the one for TO by going to Chrome options > Tools > Inspect devices > Extensions > Inspect (for TO) > Resources > any of the last 4 or so menus.

Thanks.

Gleaning ideas from BrainStorm outliner.

tabsoutdbes1 9 years ago • updated 9 years ago • 0
Vladyslav, if you are not familiar with the BrainStorm outliner, here is an intro: http://brainstormsw.com/outliner/competitor-comparison/

Understanding the design decisions behind BrainStorm may be helpful when you are working on enhancing the design of Tabs Outliner.

There lots of outlining nuggets on the BrainStorm website. Unfortunately the BrainStorm website is actually three separate websites (each with different information) with only a few links connecting them to each other.


Here are the top level URLs for each of the websites:

http://brainstormsw.com/outliner/old-optimizepress-site/
http://brainstormsw.com/outliner/

Happy nugget hunting,

Slightly adapted logic tab-close to really protect "saved links" against loss

Dusan Nemecek 9 years ago • 0
if authorised by the Chrome could not be useful to extend logic of closing tabs as follows?

1st close
By "GREEN CROSS" (according to TO Standards) - will create a "saved link".
By "RED CROSS" (acc. to Windows Standards) - remove tab.

(again open the "saved link" from TO)

2nd close
Under condition "URL was not changed".
By "GREEN CROSS"- the same.
By "RED CROSS" - the same like "GREEN CROSS" - ie. protected "saved link" in the tree.
With changed URL red cross removes tab.

With common using of an "Ctrl-click" to open links to a new tabs it could be enough without # workaround or "Shif-dblclick", which creates new nests of links in mostly far position of a tree..



This logic could provide protection against own bad habits using of Windows standards especially of the "red crosses" and also against other members who are too fare away honor some big black column with green crosses becouse their only peak of knowledge is mousing over red crosses.. 

This could be probably similar by function but hope with lower Devs consuming then topic "Allow TO user to "lock" selected URLs".

'Pinning' a window in TO

MrJAZ 11 years ago • updated 11 years ago • 5

Have you considered adding functionality to 'pin' windows or tabs in TO?  In other words, the window would remain in the TO tree, until trashed.  This would do some of the job of a session manager, with less messing about.

In detail:  A window (or tab?) is 'pinned'.  It remains in the TO tree until trashed, even if it is not saved in TO and is closed in chrome.  The green cross would still unload the window/tabs as now.  If it is not pinned, it acts as it does now.

My preference would be that if the window is pinned, and when closed (either in TO or chrome), the tabs currently inside it are all saved.

In the UI, it could be handled as a pin, next to the green cross perhaps.

Give us true outliner controls

Michael Bernstein 11 years ago • 0

Outliners have controls to move the currently selected node:


  1. Move up
  2. Move down
  3. Increase indentation
  4. Decrease indentation
Take a look at the MS Word outliner for an example.


And when you get around to adding keyboard shortcut equivalents, these actions will come in *very* handy.
