Session Manager [v7.90] — Bookmark your environments: locations and/or display (save/restore tabsets and layout)

Does the Reorder list of sessions still work for y'all?
It does not seem to work for me anymore....

[klownboy]

It seems to be working fine for me. I moved a session 3rd on my list to 1st in the list and it worked, and then moved it back to 3rd in the list without a problem.

Ok, thank you for checking.

Hi
I also tried and did not encounter any issue, neither with XY32 nor 64 (with about 25 sessions, among which 2/3 are ordered)
Can you describle the issue you encounter, and if possible how to reproduce it?

[autocart]

Update: The problem was sitting in front of the monitor.
I had overlooked the info:
<------ Sessions missing and sessions below ------>
<------ will be listed last and alphabetically ------>
All my sessions where inserted below those lines.
As soon as I inserted my session names above, it worked as expected.

Bug report: Session Manager v7.90:

Sessions named with an underscore (_) prefix will not appear in the sessions list.

[highend]

That's not a bug, that's how the script works.
It creates a real script for the menu that it loads and a session like "_testing" will lead to exactly the same line in the script

=> Subscripts inside the script beginning with a _ are hidden!

Solution?
Don't use the _ prefix for a session name^^

@flux:
I just wanted to leave an extra like.
Since you pointed me towards it, I now often use the Ctrl-Click on the SM button to quickly switch to the previously active session.
This really is nice! Thank you.

Hi, I'm here wondering if in your next release you could consider setting/fix size the TAB [name] to say: 8 characters and if at all possible when hovering over the TABS show the full TAB name instead of Search:folder name.

I currently have 20 TABS and unable to see the name of each TAB as they shrink far too small and I want to add many more which will make it even more difficult to see or remember the LOCK TAB position.
If that is at all possible I would be grateful for your help.

One minor issue is when selecting the desktop shortcuts via the xyplorer auto method it rarely opens the right saved TAB.

Lastly, I would like to move to the 64bit version, so guessing I will need to uninstall the 32bit due to different folder location but does your [Session Manager] get picked up automaticity or do I need to do something to ensure it retains the former TAB choices?
Thank you so much for this add-on 'app' as I would not be able to cope without it.
Also thank you for all your time and effort in creating it.

Is there anything that can be done about the reducing tab size (when adding extra tabs) to the point of not knowing which tab to click. I've added an extra fourteen underscore to the tab name but this idea does not work as they continue to shrink.
The only tab 'balloon' information is that of the location which for me is the same throughout all tabs.

Is there any way perhaps to force a bottom horizontal scroll bar given a fixed size tabs under version 7.90

Thanks for any suggestions.

I assume you just mean in the main XY UI, cause you can set min tab width here:

Configuration | Tabs and Panes | Tabs | Flexible tab width

and you can put a tablist dropdown on the left:

Configuration | Tabs and Panes | Tabs | Buttons position

Hi jupe
Thank you so much, I did not know about this option, so many to take onboard.
Looking at the Tab captions option there doesn't seem to be a 'variable' to show the actual <Tab Name>, guess now that I can easily see the tab name perhaps that not so important now.
Really appreciate your kind help, thank you
