Change Tab context menus when Iconized

Post by TheQwerty »

Well I was going to report this previously but thought it might not be as annoying when in use.

But I was wrong, I can no longer stand having both the breadcrumb and normal context menus available when clicking on an iconized tab. It is just too small of an area for me to quickly and reliably get the menu I want.

What I'd like to see is the two menus combined when a tab is iconized (or an option to allow that).


How they are combined I leave up to you. I wouldn't mind if the breadcrumb menu was a submenu of the normal tab menu, or if you made the menu longer to have the breadcrumbs at the top level.

Yep, I find it annoying as well. However, I can't make as you wish before release of 7.0. I think the best fast solution would be to drop the breadcrumb menu completely for iconized tabs. D'accord?

Well I don't really use the breadcrumb menu so this is perfect for me, but it makes me feel a little guilty as I'm sure there's someone that does use it and will miss it.

If you hadn't already implemented it, I would have suggested holding off until you could put a better system in place, but now, let's just sit back and hope the group that uses the breadcrumb menu on iconized tabs aren't vocal. :lol:

OK for me. But i realized there is no toolbar button for breadcrumb. That could be one solution. Either way, Ctrl+backspace is handy for me anytime.

:? Ok, so there is no unique TB button for breadcrumb, but there IS the auxilliary button on the UP button that is the "breadcrumb" option, right? You know, that half-width down-triangle thing?
Still spending WAY TOO much time here! But it's such a pleasure helping XY be a treasure!
