Next window shortcut bug with app/popup windows #43

Closed dmitriy-khokhlov closed 4 years ago

dmitriy-khokhlov commented 5 years ago

I use Windows 10 with all updates (version 1803, build 17134.345) and latest version of Chrome (70.0.3538.77).

When I have Chrome application/popup window opened among other normal Chrome windows and on some tab I press "window" shortcut and then "next window" shortcut several times it will move this tab among normal windows until it hit the app/popup window. At this point app/popup window will get the focus as if TabToWindow tried to move my tab to this app/popup window. Of course the tab is not moved there because there is no tabs in this window. But now this app/popup window has the focus. And if I press "next window" shortcut again this app/popup becomes a tab and moves to new window.

All this looks like a bug. I think TabToWindow should not try to move tabs to app/popup windows.

Thanks for finding this @dmitry-hohlov . I will have time to fix this in December.

Cheers,

I experience this every single day as well. I've had to try to work around it by opening my multiple different Chrome windows in a different order than I like. The reason I like to open my Chrome windows in a particular order is so that links opened from applications outside of Chrome always open in my preferred Chrome window. But because I have to open up my three Chrome windows in a different order than I prefer, I don't get the benefit of externally-opened links opening in my preferred Chrome window.

This is now fixed, will be available in version 3.2.0, which is pending approval from Google.

Apologies it took so long to fix, I moved country.
