1.4's switching to another loaded tab when you close one #29

Closed Luckz closed 14 years ago

Luckz commented 14 years ago

My tab bar looks like this, L for loaded, N for not loaded (on tab); brackets are for the active tab: N N L N L N N N N N [L] N N Now from the last L, I middleclick ten links => N N L N L N N N N N [L] L L L L L L L L L L N N Now I close the tab I was using: N N L N [L] N N N N N L L L L L L L L L L N N It makes absolutely no sense to me that, if an active tab is one tab to the right, I get thrown six tabs to the left instead.

Hmm, good point. Perhaps instead of first walking left and then right, BarTab should pick the closest tab that's loaded, no matter which way it is.

(Maybe a checkbox to just turn this feature off would also help)

philikon commented 14 years ago

Also a good point!

I agree with Luckz. Please provide an option to turn this feature off. I had to disable BarTab just because of this. Its a great extension; please fix soon. Thanks.

When finding the closest loaded tab, don't first walk left and then right, but actually look both ways at the same time.
