DmD Tabs

[Bolt]

Do you think you could tweak the tabs of the program to function a little bit more like those on a web browser?  Remove the X's on the inactive tabs, condense tab width when tab bar gets full, etc?  Maybe a pin to tab bar option.  There's no telling how many times I've inadvertently closed a Trend View by clicking on the X...

Not sure what options are available to us with the library we use. Not totally following the 'x' thing though, we behave exactly like Chrome and mostly like Edge. We can check to see whether pinning is an option.

By 'X' I mean the 'close tab' function.  When Chrome gets a full tab bar, the X's are dropped from inactive tabs, and the tab width shrinks.

Thanks!

I didn't realize it did that. I have a bunch pinned, and then the others don't typically get so full as to remove the X. Edge only shows the X on the active page, but they are always there all the time as hovers.

There are definitely options for the MDI tabs, and we can make those available (e.g. no close X, only on active, on all).  We are more concerned about vertical real estate than horizontal since monitors tend to get W I D E, but not tall, so we added the X's to all the MDI tabs.

Regardless, making it an option can provide the best functionality for everyone!

I'd also like to add:

Ctrl+Tab/Ctrl+Shift+Tab currently cycles through the tabs in a chronological order, not sequential order.  I think this may be a setting in web browsers.

Middle clicking on a tab doesn't close it, browsers do.
