Would you like those âFav-Icon Sized Pinned Tabsâ planned for the future Firefox 4.0 release now? Then you will definitely want to take a look at the App Tabs extension.
App Tabs in Action
You can see how much room three tabs are taking up in the âTab Barâ and if we want these tabs to reopen the next time we start Firefox then we would have to set them as âHomepagesâ. They could also be saved to a folder on the âBookmarks Barâ and reopened manually. But if they only need to be âsaved backâ for a short time both methods can be kind of inconvenient.
As soon as you install the extension you can start creating fav-icon sized tabs that are pinned to the âTab Barâ. You can use either your mouse to perform a âclick actionâ (i.e. double click) or access the âTab Context Menuâ and select âApp Tabâ. Instant satisfactionâŠ
These five App Tabs and the âNew Tab Buttonâ are taking up less space than one regular tab in our browser. That is definitely condensed!
And the nice thing about the extension is that any webpages that have been turned into App Tabs will reopen the next time you start your browser. Here you can see our five in the process of loading right after a restartâŠ
There they areâŠready to go. As soon as we are done with them all that we have to do is turn them back into regular tabsâŠno fussing around with homepage settings or bookmarks.
Options
The options are very easy to sort out. All that you need to do is choose the âTab Mouse-Clicking Styleâ for creating or removing App Tabs and deselect any of the three other options that you do not meet your needs.
These are the choices available for clicking on your tabs.
Conclusion
If you donât want to wait until Firefox 4.0 becomes available to start enjoying âFav-Icon Sized Pinned Tabsâ, then you should definitely install this extension. Quick, easy, and very niceâŠ
