Can you not just ***inside PM*** go to the topmenu, do 'view, toolbars, untick menubar' ???
I have stated multiple times that I have already done this.
Disabling the menubar saves
some space, yes—but it still
doesn't merge the tabs with the conceptual “titlebar”.
It gets you
closer, but
not all the way.
There seems to be some kind of breakdown in communication here—would you mind explaining why you keep suggesting that? Maybe I'll be able to make more sense of it and resolve whatever it is you're thinking if you follow thru to the “why” of your suggestion.
Where are you going with that thread?
in MS windows, it is no problem to 'drag the window around by the area horizontal of the tabs'
Even if that were true[1], it'd be no good.
This thread is about confirming that behavior to be unsupported
on Linux, and finding+discussing workarounds.
is there not a orange, green & red button on the top right that does 'minimize, restore, close window'??
Only if you leave the
window manager's titlebar enabled. Which, unfortunately,
necessarily pushes the tabs down to a different strata than the window grip area.
That is good to see, but, frankly, the WM's Close button is just a formality/custom, anyway—I find it much quicker to press Ctrl_Q. The real “goodness” of the titlebar is its use as
- a window grip
- access to soft-fullscreen via double-clicking and/or a Maximize button
both of which functionalities Firefox enables, with a good UX, in the same “strata” as the tabs—and both of which HCTP only
technically fulfills, having a
tremendously deficient and buggy UX.
