moving tabs from one window to the next kills tab content #161

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. open tab organizer
2. drag a tab to your current window that is the only tab open in another window

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

the content of the newly transferred tab is gone. just a blank canvas shows. 
reloading the page doesnt help. only fix is to copy url into a new tab.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

TO 4.3 Win7x64

Please provide any additional information below.

Also to clarify in another, but similar context: 

Transfer all tabs from one window to the next, the last tab to be transferred 
will not show any of its content in the window that it was transferred to.

It seems to be working fine for me. Tab Organizer really shouldn't be able to 
do that, so I'm not sure what the problem is.

I did notice that (while browsing certain web pages) it would randomly "lock 
up": you couldn't interact with the web page at all but Chrome's UI is fine, 
and refreshing the page doesn't fix it.

I believe these two issues are related, but I very highly doubt it's an issue 
in Tab Organizer. It seems more likely to be a bug in Chrome itself.

I also have this behavior every time. It started when I installed TO on my new 
machine about a month ago. Both machines were Win 7 x64. My current TO is 4.3. 
I don't know whether the version on the old machine was the same. It seems 
unlikely that it's Chrome since I'm reasonably sure the same version of Chrome 
was running on both machines.

It's not the Operating System, since, that I've seen, it happens both on Win7 
64bit and Windows Vista 32bit. Also, the tab content doesn't seem to be 
"killed" (e.g. if the tab contained a video the audio keeps playing 
regardless), just "seemingly irreversibly hidden and unclickable".

Actually, if they're the same version of Chrome, that would be evidence that it 
IS a bug in Chrome.

Does completely uninstalling Tab Organizer fix the problem? If not, then it 
most likely is a bug in Chrome.

In any case, it's a pretty moot point, since I'm rewriting Tab Organizer from 
scratch, so if it IS a problem in Tab Organizer, it should be fixed once the 
rewrite is finished.

The same problem just occurred in another Chrome extension that moves things 
from one window to another (that didn't use to happen, either): I think that 
means the newer versions of Chrome are causing the issue.

That's what I would expect, since extensions are REALLY limited in what they 
can do, so it's very unlikely to be a bug in an extension.

This problem should mostly go away with Tab Organizer version 5, which uses 
virtual groups rather than windows.
