TabSearch par Enrico Baculinao

- Noté 4 sur 5par 21220, il y a 2 ansDefinitely awesome. However I'd like to see it mimic the search on Vivaldi even more. For example the search bar pops up mid screen and you can activate search using the F2 key instead of a key combo. A key map would be nice to be able to change it. Overall it improves the Firefox experience since I am still hooked on the browser for the PIP functionality.
- Noté 4 sur 5par ClauS, il y a 2 ansIn my opinion, it is one of the best search extensions within Firefox.
I think it would be very useful if you could configure the size of the pop-up window, it seems a little small to me.
@Enrico, thank you for your work and for sharing it with the community. - Noté 4 sur 5par dk, il y a 3 ansSearch could lose focus if I start typing as soon as I activate TabSearch. Need to pause a bit before I start typing.
Also can you add a way to un-assign a keyboard shortcut. If I press "delete", it actually assigns delete to that shortcut. Normally one of backspace/delete should remove a shortcut, but in this case I need to assign it to obscure ones. - Noté 4 sur 5par Utilisateur ou utilisatrice 12620718 de Firefox, il y a 4 ans

- Noté 4 sur 5par arielCo, il y a 6 ansFeature-rich, but if you only want to find a tab by part of the title or URL, put "%" in the Location Bar and start typing.
- Noté 4 sur 5par Utilisateur ou utilisatrice 11270652 de Firefox, il y a 6 ansGood but going to a tab in another window does not work.

- Noté 4 sur 5par Matthew, il y a 8 ansSimple tool that does the job. Looks nice.
One caveat - I am one of the people for whom the cursor doesn't immediately focus the search box, and it can be a bit infuriating sometimes to press the shortcut only to have to move the mouse anyway. Windows 8.1 FF 57.0.4. Still a keeper for adding basic functionality the browser lacks, and for going some way towards mitigating the issues of having hundreds of tabs!Réponse du développeur
mis en ligne : il y a 8 ansI'm so tired of this bug, sorry that it affects you. The best we can do right now is wait for someone to finish submitting a patch for this bug, since it's a Firefox issue: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1324255
If you're comfortable with coding and building an npm project, you can try: you can try extending the timeout values in this function https://github.com/reblws/tab-search/blob/master/src/core/pages/popup/side-effects.js#L81in focusSearchInputWorkaround and see if that might help. - Noté 4 sur 5par Utilisateur ou utilisatrice 13529122 de Firefox, il y a 8 ansInput might not focus when the search popup is activated for certain users (Windows users mainly report this)
it's true :-(
and thats why uninstall :-(
beatuful idea - bad realization. - Noté 4 sur 5par Utilisateur ou utilisatrice 10620720 de Firefox, il y a 8 ansPretty great. However, a couple of issues:
1) the extension icon needs to be visible for this to work (if you hide it completely, the keyboard shortcut doesn't work, and if you hide if behind the arrows, the animations take a long time to show the list)
2) the first time you press down or right arrow to focus the first item, it doesn't work - you need to press it twice - Noté 4 sur 5par Utilisateur ou utilisatrice 13459908 de Firefox, il y a 8 ansPretty great so far except that unchecking the "Display total number of tabs above the popup icon" setting doesn't seem to stick. It turns off the popup icon for a while, but then stops working in new tabs, other tabs, or even the same tab if other tabs are closed or just switching to a different tab. The tab popup reappears pretty much the minute you do anything tab wise.
Another bug I experienced is that if you move the TabSearch button into the Overflow Menu from it's default position on the toolbar through Firefox's "Customize", and then use the hotkey to activate/toggle TabSearch, the cursor doesn't automatically focus on the textbox and you need to manually click it to start searching. - Noté 4 sur 5par M. Samuel, il y a 8 ansSo far so good but I'd appreciate if the cursor flashes right away in the search box instead of placing it manually ourselves, so that we start typing right away when we use the keyboard shortcut or clicking the extension icon.

mis en ligne : il y a 8 ansThis sounds like a bug, the input should be focused right away once you open the popup.
I know at least one other user raised the point https://github.com/reblws/tab-search/issues/13 here, but I'm having trouble replicating it.
Could you let me know you browser version & OS? You can also contact me by email or that GitHub issue (if you have a GitHub account) if that makes it any easier for you. - Noté 4 sur 5par Utilisateur ou utilisatrice 13442481 de Firefox, il y a 8 ansOverall does a great job for the intended task!
Fixing a few details would be really nice:
- Allow rebinding the list popup hotkey.
- When typing to narrow down a tab search, the first item in the list should be highlighted.
- Allow defining hotkeys for moving up and down in the list (besides the arrow keys.)
I am coming from Chrome, and the equivalent plugin I use is called Quick Tabs. It also searches history / bookmarks if the search begins with a space.

(Not sure how to reply, so I updated the review to include other suggestions. Thanks for the great plugin!)Réponse du développeur
mis en ligne : il y a 8 ansWhat else do you think is missing?
Update:
Thanks for updating your review with the suggestions.
1) Rebinding the popup key isn't possible in Firefox yet unfortunately. It'll be possible in future Firefox versions but I don't know exactly when. All we can do now is watch for the progress on this: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1303384
2) Pressing enter from the search input should enter the first item in the tab list, but having a visual indicator to make this more obvious is a great suggestion.
3) Another good idea. Will definitely add this.
W.r.t to history and bookmarks, I'd love to add them. My main concern is presenting them in a way that doesn't clutter up the search results too much. Here's an open issue on GitHub regarding bookmarks: https://github.com/reblws/tab-search/issues/20 . If you have any more suggestions don't hesitate to contact me by email or comment in the issue tracker! https://github.com/reblws/tab-search/issues - Noté 4 sur 5par Utilisateur ou utilisatrice 13128982 de Firefox, il y a 8 ansThis addon works well. Only one little niggle. The icon can't be seen when using a dark theme.
