In 1.0pre13, set M-click on New Tab button to do nothing, and enter your code in ...button.newtab-button.onclick.

I use Gmail everyday. TU works well with it.

external links open in new tabs?

Using 1.0pre13, it works fine. Thanks.

ook, sorry for that
Even though I was sure that the problem began just after installing TU I just disabled it for a moment and the problem did not go away...
after some searching: change in about:config -> browser.link.open_newwindow to '3' seems to make everything work normally...

other question: how to change language of the plugin?

Glad to see the problem solved. That preference corresponds to Links > Open links in > Open new-window links in > New Tab.
If you want to have pl locale, install the 0.9.9.9.x version.

Exactly right. Before I added the two checkboxes, I had received many complainants that new tabs are not focused or always focused. The status bar icons are often ignored.

I tried importing the following into 1.0pre13, but the Save All Tabs context menu entry is not displayed. Tested with clean profile on 3.6.13. Is this a bug ?

Code: Select all

pref("extensions.tabutils.menu.context_saveAllTabs", true);
pref("extensions.tabutils.menu.context_saveAllTabs.label", "Save All Tabs");
pref("extensions.tabutils.menu.context_saveAllTabs.oncommand", "gBrowser.allTabs.forEach(function(aTab) saveDocument(aTab.linkedBrowser.contentDocument, true));");

If you want to have pl locale, install the 0.9.9.9.x version.

I would like to switch the plugin to english :)

from what I see now:
"Open new-window links in" got translated in polish version to "open external links in" (and I understand external as "not this domain" if that makes sense)

With multi-row tabs (2 or more rows), if you drag a tab to move it and the mouse cursor is to the right of the last tab on the last row (ie. on the tab bar background), the drag arrow jumps to the first row, rather than staying on the last row. So, if you release the mous button to move the tab, it ends up on the first row, rather than the expected last tab on the last row. With a single row, the drag arrow will will stay to the right of the last tab.

Can you add the ability to highlight the last opened tab with a different colour ?

This would come in handy when new tabs are set to open next to the current tab.

Hmm, sorry for the translation error. You'd better report it to the translator at: http://www.babelzilla.org/forum/index.p ... topic=5939.

It goes into the "List all tabs" popup if the menuitem id contains "AllTabs".

Related to this, I see a new issue.

Assume that the tab bar is overflowed with the 10th opened tab.
If i open, by example, 15 tabs, focus to the last tab, and close with middle-click 3 (don't closing the original last tab), the resizing doesn't happen (delayed forever). I see the arrows AND a empty space on the tab bar. Only closing more tabs for to get less of 10 tabs I get the resizing (delayed).

Fx 3.6.x, linux system, tested with a new profile.
This doesn't happen with Minefield4beta9pre.

The resizing will happen when your mouse moves off the tab bar for at least half the height of the tab bar, won't it?
