Critiques pour Tab Counter Plus
Tab Counter Plus par Oriol Brufau
42 notes
- Noté 5 sur 5par sivulabill, il y a 5 ansWith 16GB RAM in a pc, this AddOn allows (easy use) seeing a current count of (e.g., 800+) open FireFox Tabs, both entire count and count within current Firefox window. Along with Windows Task Manager (80+% RAM used), alerts me when to shutdown some Tabs and/or reboot Firefox, to free enough RAM to avoid crashing Firefox/Windows
- Noté 5 sur 5par brain8891, il y a 5 ansI vouch that it is less taxing than other add-ons, you can test it by opening "About:Performance" on a different window in a different monitor, and then opening different tabs on a different window. I also suggest highlighting Tab counter plus entry in "About:performance page.
I also appreciate that it doesn't ask for any invasive needless permissions. Kudos for that.
I like that you can choose SVG icon which shows only the number of tabs, however, the font/numbers looked too fine and small with low contrast, I changed both background and text color, but still it was too hard for me to read. Hence, I suggest to add some customization to change the SVG font values like thickness or font size. Not sure if possible, but hope so. Alternatively, add a third option to just show the WebExtension badge without the Tab icon, meaning just the number.
A suggestion, If possible add number of running tabs, meaning tabs that are not suspended. Reason for this suggestion, you can see how many tabs are running and thus help with troubleshooting. Having said that, if this might taxing then make optional.
Finally, thank you, THANK YOU for your hard work <3Réponse du développeur
mis en ligne : il y a 5 ansThank you for the kind words! I tried to minimize the performance impact as much as possible.
It's true that the SGV icon doesn't look that good with a big number of tabs, but there is just not enough space. I have https://github.com/Loirooriol/tab-counter-plus/issues/13 about adding font customization, but it may be tricky since currently I change some styles depending on the length of the number.
I agree that excluding suspended tabs would be useful. Actually I already have a draft patch that lets you exclude suspended, hidden or pinned tabs. But first I would like to add some automated test coverage, and lately I haven't had much free time for this. - Noté 5 sur 5par Louie Torres, il y a 5 ansIt does exactly what it needs to - showing the number of tabs. Maybe it could show the index of the tab like 4/24 or something, but that's just a suggestion.
Again, otherwise, nothing to complain about. Simple and fast. Thank you for your work!Réponse du développeur
mis en ligne : il y a 5 ansThanks for your suggestion! However, I don't have much space, so 5 characters like 10/25 would be quite unreadable with a SVG icon, and would be clipped to 10/2 with a WebExtension badge.
But it might be possible to just show the index of the current tab, without the number of tabs. - Noté 5 sur 5par John Homebrew, il y a 5 ans
- Noté 5 sur 5par zephyr707, il y a 5 ansSeems the best option available and does not have any added permissions, but is there a way to display both current and global tab count and maybe also total window count? There are some add ons in firefox that do one or the other and some that display both current and global tabs, but none that do all three
edit: great, thanks for the update! I'm sticking with this one, cheersRéponse du développeur
mis en ligne : il y a 5 ansYou are not the first one to request this, so I have just done it! Please check version 3.4 - Noté 5 sur 5par Firepal, il y a 5 ans
- Noté 5 sur 5par Ramon V M, il y a 6 ansThis add-on is simple and light, just what I needed to have in mind how many tabs I have and therefore the amount of RAM Firefox is using. Thanks!

- Noté 5 sur 5par fredy peralta, il y a 7 anscumple su cometido, te dice el total de abiertas y cuantas pestañas en cada ventana.
- Noté 5 sur 5par jerboa88, il y a 7 ansWorks really great! It's unfortunate that the text can't be made any larger but I understand you don't have a lot of space to work with. Perhaps you could use a taller font to use up more space vertically as the text is a little hard to read sometimes. Thank you sir!
Réponse du développeur
mis en ligne : il y a 5 ansExactly, the problem is that the browser doesn't give me much space. I already experimented with tall fonts, but it actually looked even harder to read :( But glad that you like it! - Noté 5 sur 5par Soustruh, il y a 7 ans
- Noté 5 sur 5par Utilisateur ou utilisatrice 14554732 de Firefox, il y a 7 ansThis was the first tab counter extension I've found that works on the Android app.
Réponse du développeur
mis en ligne : il y a 7 ansThanks for your feedback! In fact I only designed the add-on for Firefox desktop, so if it works on Android it's mostly by chance. But I will try to keep this in mind and check that future updates continue working on Android. - Noté 5 sur 5par Utilisateur ou utilisatrice 14544026 de Firefox, il y a 7 ansBest tab counter ever. Thank you and congratulations.
- Noté 5 sur 5par Utilisateur ou utilisatrice 14269091 de Firefox, il y a 7 ansEDIT: It appears the review was submitted before I had finished writing it. So I've deleted my original review and am re-posting it.
Unfortunately, there's less functionality than Michael Kraft's original. I vastly prefer this compared to the replacement suggested by Firefox, and I do enjoy the ability to click on the counter to view the total number of open tabs.
What this add-on does, it does well. However, providing font customisation would make it a perfect 5 star add-on. I rather liked using a bold text number to display the number of tabs but that's not possible with this add on. Some basic font customisation would be nice.
It's also a shame that the size of the text becomes very small when the number of open tabs increases to 3 or more digits, but I expect this is a limitation caused by Firefox (I think all toolbar icons must be the same size) so I haven't deducted a star for this. Still, it would be nice if you could find a workaround.
Regardless, thank you for taking your time to write this extension. Even if you're unable to include font customisation, it's still vastly better than not having a tab counter. Its funny how much you miss the little things in life when they're taken away from you!
EDIT #2: Thanks for getting back to me! It looks like you've basically done all you can within the limitations set by WebExtensions so I've upgraded the review to 5 stars. Hopefully font customisation works out, but I won't hold my breath as I'm not sure if you'll be able to do much within the 16 pixels available.Réponse du développeur
mis en ligne : il y a 7 ansThanks for your feedback!
Effectively, WebExtension APIs provide no way to increase the size of the icon. I only have 16 pixels, that's a bit too few for 3 digits, and totally insufficient for more digits.
I will consider adding some font customization, tracked in https://github.com/Loirooriol/tab-counter-plus/issues/13 - Noté 5 sur 5par tubeliar, il y a 7 ans
- Noté 5 sur 5par Utilisateur ou utilisatrice 14142584 de Firefox, il y a 7 anslove it :D
*EDIT
I have two Tab counter addons installed, one that shows th
total open tabs
and one that shows
total open tabs in any window :D
so that I do not have to click and check :D
I am a bit lazy :pRéponse du développeur
mis en ligne : il y a 7 ansGlad to hear it! I'm thinking about ways to make it even better.
*EDIT
Being able to have multiple browser actions (i.e toolbar icons) per extension could be interesting, I will propose it if I can come up with a nice API.
