Chrome parity would be good, but I think that with little effort Mozilla could make a tremendous improvement:
- Multiple-row tab bar.
Such an obvious improvement over tabs scrolling off the screen sides or squashing them like Chrome does, I don't know why it's not being considered.
It's already been done by Tab Mix Plus (or was it Classic Theme Restorer?). They only need to copy it and polish it a little.
- baby 9y agoIt's not been considered because Tree Style Tab just is just the best solution to all these problems.
- thom_nic 9y agoPeople keep mentioning tree-style tab but I don't see how that's an alternative to TMP's multiple tab rows. Personally I don't find tree-style tabs appealing at all because (1) I usually have few pages open on the same domain, but I have many pages open on different domains. And (2) I don't want a vertical column of content width lost to a sidebar. Limiting tabs to a single row per window is awful for usability.
- baby 9y agoYou should try tree style tabs for a few days
- wtallis 9y ago> And (2) I don't want a vertical column of content width lost to a sidebar. You have to understand that this is a pretty unusual concern. Most of the world struggles with screens with aspect ratios optimized for watching TV, making vertical space very precious but leaving plenty of excess horizontal space that cannot be effectively used by the majority of web pages that only use a single column of text.
