[This must have come up before, but I couldn't find a relevant thread.]

I have many tabs, too many to all be visible in the pane's tab bar, a problem that often occurs when using dual pane mode. The problem is: how can I navigate directly to a tab that is not visible because there's not enough horizontal room to see it in the tab bar? What I'm looking for is a button to click on that will dropdown a menu listing all the pane's tabs so I can go directly to any one. Just like the one in Firefox, for example.

Or some other easy workaround. NOTE: I keep my tabs in a fixed order so don't want to be moving them around just be make them more reachable. And I use the Mini Tree so a tab's path may not necessarily be visible in the tree. Also, horizontally scrolling the tabs in the tab bar isn't a good solution for me because often, the drives for some of these tabs are in sleep mode and I'd have to wait for drives earlier in the list to wake up before I can get to the one I want.

Ok, I just realized where the answer was: Use the Tab List toolbar button!

Or right-click empty space in tab bar.

Except, in dual pane mode, there may be no empty space in the tab bar!

Tick Configuration | Tabs | Always keep right end of tab bar empty

I have that enabled, but in dual-pane view, there's no empty space at the right end of either tab bar. That's with 20 tabs in pane 1 and 11 tabs in pane 2.

OK, when all tabs are squeezed to the minimum the free space has to be sacrificed.
