Can an Addon be made to relocate the tab bar?

Post by chazbroam »

I prefer SeaMonkey to Firefox or even Google Chrome, but I would like the ABILITY to choose where my tab bar is located in the interface. Is it possible to write such an add-on? Does code in SeaMonkey prevent such add-ons? If any such add-on could be written, could any of the SeaMonkey developers show me where to start?

Thanks

I wouldn't know, but where would you like it?
One recent poster was looking for vertical tabs.

If you want to move the tabs you just need to drag them using mouse.
Lot of tab customisations available:-
