Works exelent!!

greets

Hopefully you are well. QTTabbar has been in Beta stage quite a long time. If you don't have the time left to finish the release properly make it Open Source and/or release the source code under GPL. By doing so progress on this wonderful application could be ensured and everyone would benefit from this.

Best Regards
Frank

could you support the following keyboard shortcuts.
CTRL + Insert for copy to clibboard
Shift + Insert for copy from clibboard

The native windows bar allows them.

greetings
Carsten

Thanks in advance! :)

P.S. Guys if you like my suggestions please second it or something. Do something!

The current software like strokeit and mouseimp isn't up to scratch.

Instead of the contents shown when you hover on the arrow down button of a folder, can you please add another feature like copy, paste, and send, etc like when you right-click on a file so we don't have to right-click to see the tips.

Hovering should replace right-clicking. This is faster and more efficient.

it'll be nice to use that arrow down on other files and not only the folders. it'll be a good new feature.

So the hover arrow button on folders should include open (instead of double-clicking), cut, copy, paste, send to, delete, rename and the contents of the folder can still be shown in a click-able button like an arrow to show folder contents.

And for files: run, cut, copy, play (for media files), view (for pictures), delete, rename, send to, and if possible the file's properties is also shown when you click on it on something like "properties" and it drops down.

Hope this suggestion included on the next release and I can't wait!

This could help many people!

Is it possible to let QTAddressBar accept paths in URI notation? (file://…/…)
The explorer address bar accept such strings.

Thanks

Thank you for this excellent shell extension.
I have some requests. I have a HD with hundreds of folders with music tracks and cover-art.

Can you add some shortcuts to the View Mode Button pluging?

Thanks

Can you create a plug in for batch files rename (rename multiple files),
or if possible provide me with code stub\sample for your plug in and I will do the writing?
Thanks.

What I ended up doing was creating a batch file. I don't know much about batch files but I cobbled this together (see http://www.aumha.org/a/batches.php):

(The file is called GroupShortcut.bat)
Start C:\Work\%1
C:\OpenGroup.exe %1

"%1" represents a startup parameter that is used in two ways:
1) It is the name of the directory I want to open (ie "C:\Work\Project1\")
2) It is also the name I have assigned for the group (ie "C:\OpenGroup.exe Project1" opens C:\Work\Project1\, C:\Work\Project1\Libraries\, C:\Work\Project1\Backups\, C:\Work\Project1\Data\)

Number 1) solves my problem, namely, starting a brand new folder before running the opengroup util.

Nathan, get the Opengroup.exe utility from the downloads if you don't have it. Create the batch file above (use notebook and save as C:\GroupShortcut.bat). Create a shortcut on your desktop. Make the shortcut target = C:\Shortcut.bat "Project1"
(or whatever group you seek to open)

Hmm, actually Nathan doesn't need the batch file at all if he doesn't mind (or prefers) the group to open up in existing instance of explorer
If that's the case, just make the shortcut target = C:\OpenGroup.exe YourGroupNameHere

Cheers

There are just a few things I like to mention:
- option to disable tab switching with mouse wheel, because it happens often accidentally
- I like small tool bar icons with text underneath - this is not possible with the QTTabBar buttons
- A Firefox like panel to add and remove tool bar buttons would be nice! (including all plugin buttons would be even cooler)

I have a request a botton like Back to Top(Firefox extension ) Back to top" scrolls the current window to the beginning of the document and "Go to bottom" scrolls to the last line of the document.

Thank you for this amazing program !! You are God !! ;-D

Gracias Totales !!

Also would it be possible to some how make a shortcut on the desktop to a Group? I have shortcuts on the desktop now that goto a folder then I have to open up the Group from there, but can I have one that goes to a Group and opens all the folders in the group? I know there is the Start Up option, but I don't want the Group to open up every time I open a folder.

Great program.
Thanks,
Nathan

My request:
1) In the contextual menu over a folder a simple text "open in a new tab" just like firefox.

2)
Another one, is it possible in any way to open a text file or image in a new tab like that the explorer tab has the notepad or paint or image viewer "plugin" or a pdf.
I mean something like kde in linux where you open a txt or other files in the same tab.

Thanks in advance. keep it going!

Right now, If I open Group A (Opengroup.exe "Group A") while no explorer processes running, all the folders from group A pop up in a new window. If I subsequently open Group B (Opengroup.exe "Group B"), the folders contained in Group B are appended to the same window as Group A.

Thanks again for an amazing product.

The pop-up window, however, might be unique (my browser doesn't have this); it could eliminate delays needed to redraw the entire folder's contents. However, some might find a popup to be a distraction, though, so if added, its time to initial display probably would need to be configurable (starting a timer from the moment the first button is held & reset by each click, displaying the popup after the configured time has been surpassed).

Alternatives to "Add current tab to group" & "Add window tabs to group"
a) "Add tab to group" & "Add window to group"
b) "Add to group" & "Add group to"

I like a) best…
b) implies "tab" in the former & "group" in the latter, making the description of functionality a bit subtle. Users would have to learn what was meant by the options.

To navigate backwards in history: 1) right-button-hold, 2) left-click, 3) right-button-release
To navigate forward in history: 1) left-button-hold, 2) right-click, 3) left-button-release

Another neat idea for add'l rocker functionality: count how many clicks are made between the hold & release steps to determine how deep to go in history/future. For interim-visual feedback, display a pop-up window of browsed folder history and allow clicks to increment/decrement the folder selected in the popup window to show which folder will be displayed upon mouse button release.

1) Remove (rt click on tab)->"Create New Group" and add the following:
(rt click on tab)->Add current tab to group->[list of current groups]+(separator)+"Create New Group"
(rt click on tab)->Add window tabs to group->[list of current groups]+(separator)+"Create New Group"
(rt click on tab)->Replace Group with window's tabs->[list of current groups]

Add a way to quickly delete a group. Idea:
2) (right-click tab backgnd)->Groups->(delete hotkey & beside group name add a clickable delete icon [X]). Maybe the delete hotkey should be configurable, but I think most would agree it's OK to hardcode the keyboard's delete key.

If not doing (1) above, my suggestion would then be to change the "Create New Group" function to add all of the current window's tabs to the newly created group by default (possibly configurable in menus to preserve backwards compatibility).

Thank you very much for the add-on.

The current "restore tabs" feature only works when you close Explorer normally, not when it crashes.

Apparently QTTabbar saves your tab only when you close Explorer, not every time you add/remove a tab, so if Explorer crashes (happens quite often), QTTabbar restores old tabs instead of the tabs you had just before it crashed.

Such a "crash safeguard" feature would be very useful. And a session manager, as many have commented above.

Thanks again. Otsukaresamadeshita.

I'd like it if there was a way to replace all the tabs in a Tab Group with the current tabs.
Currently it is possible to create a New Group with all the current tabs, but as fas as I know you cannot easily replace all the tabs in a group.

Cheers (and thanks for this amazing piece of software!)

My request is the ability to change the shortcut keys to my own as I'm already familiar with e.g. FireFox tabs and would like not to remember another set of shortcuts :)

Thanks again for the tool.

A request…or two for QTTabBar if possible…
1) Would it be possible to make the Memo Plugin window 'sticky' to the Windows Explorer window so that when the Windows Explorer window is moved the Memo window moves with it? Maybe having it 'snap' to the sides of the Windows Explorer window to 'stick' in place? Also have the Memo window 'sticky' to the Windows Explorer window when minimized to the Task Bar(as it is, the Memo window gets left behind). And also have the Windows Explorer window open with the Memo window 'sticky' in place to the Explorer window would be great. As it is, if the Windows Explorer windows get moved they are out of place with Memo window.

2) Another request with the Memo Plugin function…would it be possible to have the Right-Click tab menu function: 'Show/Hide Folder Memo', toggle between Hide and Show?

Edit(12/31/08) to add addendum to item #2
I found that it is possible to toggle the Memo window 'Show/Hide' via a 'Shortcut Key' creature feature within the 'Options' section…as posted in this thread:
http://qttabbar.wikidot.com/forum/t-49561/is-there-a-button-or-shortcut-key-to-make-folder-memo-appear

Thank you for all your efforts on this great program, and again welcome back!
