Noticed this small inconsistency:
1. Pin at least one tab
2. Set browser.allTabs.previews to false
3. Click the List all tabs button
4. Pinned tab(s) is/are not listed
Switching back to the default mode (tab previews=enabled) will preview all tabs, including pinned ones. So, the suggestion is to list pinned tabs as well.
(also tested on clean PM 29.1.1 portable x64, W10)
No tab previews=no pinned tabs listed Topic is solved

Re: No tab previews=no pinned tabs listed
Why do you need it to list pinned tabs when they are always visable on the tabstrip. The inconsistency is in the graphical tab switcher which SHOULD filter them out and I did some work to that effect but couldn't get it to cooperate.

Re: No tab previews=no pinned tabs listed
I don't really need it, just bringing the inconsistency to your attention. I'll disagree on tabstrip visibility, since pinned tabs are too small for a quick overview and a full list would help. It does say 'List all tabs' after all.
Thanks. If I'm getting this right, these options still only apply to the default 'Preview' mode, not 'List' mode.

Re: No tab previews=no pinned tabs listed
It isn't inconsistant though. There is no reason for a dropdown from the tabstrip to list tabs that are ALWAYS in view. Pinned tabs are OUTSIDE the tab scrolling overflow.
HOWEVER, for graphical switching it does make sense because it is a whole other view.
In any event, you are JUST bringing the way it operates to our attention, right? Well it has our attention and has had our attention before. And you know what? Last time people wanted it excluded from graphical switching and I guess FranklinDM did that. As for your thing..
RESOLVED WONTFIX

Re: No tab previews=no pinned tabs listed
I concur, there is no reason to list pinned tabs in the drop-down listing since they are always in view in the same UI and at the same UI level.
