xplorer2's tabs customizable?

Post by dping28 »

I just installed xplorer2 and love it so far but had a couple questions, with the tabs is it possible to have them show up at the top of the window instead at the bottom? also is it possible to add the ability to double click on the blank area next to a tab to create a new tab? Thats a feature I have come to love in Maxthon and Opera. Also a double click on a tab to close it would be nice. If not cool just thought I would throw them out there. Thanks!

1. see DPF_TABSONTOP in registry.txt

2. @ dclick between tabs >> interesting ... 'dunno if nikos would implement

3. Currently, to close tab use Ctrl+F4 or click the X at right side of tab bar.

if you are click-happy you can put the "new tab" button on any toolbar
i'll probably add the "d-click for new tab" feature for the next version

Hi nikos,

        What about double clicking on a tab to close it?. I think lot of ppl have requested for this. Is there any reason you don't want to implement it or is it there in your huge list of future enhancements ?

Thanks

Yes, double clicking on a tab to close it and double clicking on the white space on the right side of the last tab to open a new one.

Closing all active tabs before opening another group of tabs should be implemented also ;-)

And maybe the registry option to put tabs on top could be implemented in te normal config window.
The option to show dual pane vertical or horizontal is in the normal config screen too, so why not the tab selection?

Then the best wil even get better . . .
