Rename tabs

[AnnDramaduh]

Could you plz work on renaming tabs, and also on reducing their width?

Renaming, what ? I don't understand what you mean, give the option to the user to rename the tabs as he wish instead of only taking the page title ?
And for their width, there is just no need to, imho, since it is useful when you have, well numerous tabs, and if you open a lot of tabs, the width of each tab is reduced (but no to the point where you can't know what is the tab, which would be pointless)

Why you need to rename tabs? Then you didn't know what sites you have open.

The width can you change with this css script in your userchrome.css or use stylish addon:

Code: Select all

/* width for active tab: */
.tabbrowser-tab[selected="true"]{width:X px !important}

/* width for other tabs: */
.tabbrowser-tab:not([selected]){width:X px !important}

Change X to what you need.

I think there was some addon to rename tabs with random names, but that was for other purposes!

Tab width is not tied to its title length, so renaming wouldn't help. Some add-on (tab-utilities, tab mixplus,..) had option to set the tab width to fit its title and to use the name of opened bookmark as the tab title. This way you could have very short tab titles for bookmarked tabs.

Also you can pin tabs to give space for other tabs.

edit: at least Tab Utilities has tab renaming function. and it has the hidden option "extensions.tabutils.tabFitTitle"

You could also rename tabs by modifying the contents of the <title> tags by using the developer tools.
