Toolbar button #40

iainhallam commented 8 years ago

I've been using a profile switcher for a while that has a toolbar button for switching profiles, and it makes for a nice UI; is it possible that Profilist could gain a button that simply opens a menu of the available profiles just like the hover state in the menu, please?

Hi there @iainhallam I don't have a plan for this. But please try the the latest beta of v3.0 - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/profilist/versions/beta

The reason is I need to have the room for allowing all the functionalities (badging, sorting, filtering, renaming, deleting, etc). In v3.0 the toolbar button opens up a pinned tab. Like an HTML5 app. Can you please try that out and share your thoughts.

@Noitidart I'm currently using the latest beta, and I find it unefficient having the UI open in a new tab. It would be nice if there was a toolbar button that would display a panel/subview when clicking on it, in a similar way as the history button. I would recommend having a simple UI within a panel, and have a footer within that panel that would link to the more complete UI.

Hi @nt1m that's a good idea. I'll try that. Thanks for using the beta even though it's quite buggy right now!
