Re: Lull The Tabs (BarTab successor)
hi JustOff, loving your work here. i have a small request, can you make it so that the browser doesn't switch to the tab next to the unloaded tab when i'm on a separate tab? e.g. i'm watching a youtube video on fullscreen, and when a tab is unloaded focus is switched to the tab next to it
Re: Lull The Tabs (BarTab successor)
Yes, this is a known limitation, inherited from BarTab. I'll see what can be done about this.LimboSlam wrote:However, the about:whatever (e.g, about:addons, about:reader) pages are unloaded as they are not recognized by LTT's exception list. Can we have control over these internal pages with LTT's?
I can't reproduce this issue exactly as you described it, but yes, unloading a tab triggered by an inactivity timeout leads to exit from full-screen when watching a video in the browser. I can try to reschedule or postpone all such unloading until the exit the full-screen, however this requires additional investigation.fillerup wrote:can you make it so that the browser doesn't switch to the tab next to the unloaded tab when i'm on a separate tab? e.g. i'm watching a youtube video on fullscreen, and when a tab is unloaded focus is switched to the tab next to it

Re: Lull The Tabs (BarTab successor)
Thanks a lot for this. Would it be possible to add selection of available context-menu options, or more simply an option to disable the context-menu entirely?

Re: Lull The Tabs (BarTab successor)
Would it be possible to be able add a customizable keyboard shortcut for unloading a tab?
Re: Lull The Tabs (BarTab successor)
Selective control over the menu items looks a little excessive, but the option to disable the context menu completely should not be difficult to add.back2themoon wrote:Would it be possible to add selection of available context-menu options, or more simply an option to disable the context-menu entirely?
Full-featured customizable keyboard shortcut is not so easy to implement, but you can install Dorando keyconfig add-on and assign any keys combination to execute the following code:hobbledehoy899 wrote:Would it be possible to be able add a customizable keyboard shortcut for unloading a tab?

Re: Lull The Tabs (BarTab successor)
related to my previous posts: seems like LullTheTab transfers focus from other programs back to Pale Moon when unloading, and additionally 'Restores' the windows aka clicking the Maximize/Restore button, at least on Windows. is it possible to fix this as well?
hope we are not burdening you with too many requests!

Unfortunately, I can't reproduce this on my Windows 7 PC.fillerup wrote:seems like LullTheTab transfers focus from other programs back to Pale Moon when unloading, and additionally 'Restores' the windows aka clicking the Maximize/Restore button, at least on Windows
Re: Lull The Tabs (BarTab successor)
Why thank you for the advice! I have my shortcut set to Shift+F5.JustOff wrote:Full-featured customizable keyboard shortcut is not so easy to implement, but you can install Dorando keyconfig add-on and assign any keys combination to execute the following code:Code: Select all

Re: Lull The Tabs (BarTab successor)
Wonderful job with this beauty of an add-on!! Thanks for allowing custom protocols to be whitelisted. I have one more request: is is possible to have LLT's exception list synced through the browser sync function? I noticed that the exception list is not imported automatically with Pale Moon's syncing function.
Thanks very much!
Thanks very much!
With Pale Moon by my side, surfing the web is quite enjoyable and takes my headaches away!

Re: Lull The Tabs (BarTab successor)
Would it be possible to add an option that would make it so that domains on the exception list can still be manually unloaded instead of being completely protected from any unloading measure?

Re: Lull The Tabs (BarTab successor)
Ok, I'll add support for syncing setting in the next version.LimboSlam wrote:is is possible to have LLT's exception list synced through the browser sync function?
I already thought about this option myself. At the moment I'm going to implement the forced unloading of whitelisted tabs using Ctrl+click on the button in the address bar (access to the extension settings will be shifted to Ctrl+Alt+click). The option to perform this action using the context menu will most likely not be added. It should also be understood that pinned tabs can't be forced to unload, if their unloading is disabled in the settings.hobbledehoy899 wrote:Would it be possible to add an option that would make it so that domains on the exception list can still be manually unloaded instead of being completely protected from any unloading measure?
Re: Lull The Tabs (BarTab successor)
Lull The Tabs 1.4.0 has been released:
- Add support for syncing setting through the browser sync
- Add option to manually unload whitelisted tabs (Ctrl+click on the button)
- Add option to recreate ("full reload") any tab (Ctrl+Shift+click on the button)
Re: Lull The Tabs (BarTab successor)
All you have to do to always have this function functionality from a keyboard shortcut is to change the executed custom command fromJustOff wrote:

Re: Lull The Tabs (BarTab successor)
For some reason with the latest version, if I middle click or right click and select "load url in new tab", it won't do just that. If I disable the add-on, I can open tabs in the background again.
Re: Lull The Tabs (BarTab successor)
I can't reproduce your issue using LTT 1.4.0 on Pale Moon 28.0.0. Perhaps you have a conflict with another add-on installed. Try to start with a clean profile or to disable other add-ons one by one to find the culprit.
Re: Lull The Tabs (BarTab successor)
I believe the problem with LTT 1.4.0 on Pale Moon 28.0.0 is with the "Don't load tabs that open in the background" option.
The other LTT features I have tested seem to be working just fine.
You can see it fail by toggling it ON and going to websites like news.google.com or reddit.com and middle-clicking a link or right-clicking a link and trying "Open Link in New Tab".
I created a new profile with only this add-on installed to verify this was not related to any other add-ons or settings.
I love this add-on and the "Don't load tabs that open in the background" option is my favorite feature.
I hope it can be fixed!
Thanks!
