Suggestion: Double-click to close tabs

Post by PocketAppZ »

I have an idea for a small feature that I believe should be implemented in Slimjet. I didn't see a "Suggestions/Feedback" section of the forum so I'm posting it here instead.

It would be very convenient if I could enable an option that would allow me to close a tab by simply double-clicking that tab.

So, my request is to add that feature. "Double-click tab to close"

Well, for one I don't see any advantage to your suggestion when a single-click on the X on the tab does this..

I agree. I dislike double clicking on anything inside a browser setting. One click on the X is all we need.

All right all ready; the feature request is moot.

This feature exists and has existed since day one.

The same reason it is an option in Notepad++ (which also uses X boxes to close the tabs)

I seriously did not see that option when I last looked.

Cool! I didn't notice it either. And while I'm at it and since I'm always griping here is something I like about Slimjet - I can right click and close all other tabs or the tabs to the right without it annoying me with a confirmation window every time I do it.
