Hi,

As FTS is a separate window, would it be possible to add an option to 'preview' (switch to) a tab when you hover the mouse over a tab in the list? I've seen this done on another extension where the tab list was an independent window and it worked well. Saves 'thinking' you have the right tab and then finding out you don't!

Cheers.

chrome.commands.getAll will return information on the shortcut for a command, so an option menu or some other UI could inform the user on how to change the shortcut if necessary.

While having checkbox to show tabs from all windows checked, would be great to still have them grouped a bit by window, similar to console.group() behavior.

This would fix weird issues where the host page has registered for mouse/key events, allow tab selection from tabs that normally block DOM injection (like the Chrome extension store), fix focus-stealing issues, and potentially fix the issue where tabs need to be reloaded after the extension is installed or updated.

Due to the event page keeping track of the last active window

v0.2.0+

Is it possible to close tabs from this UI?
May come really handy in some cases.

I've used fts for a long time now, and I love it!

The thing that annoys me the most is when I open it, start typing and I see the tab I want as option 1, hit enter, but end up on the wrong tab.

This happens if my mouse happens to hover over the list while I'm typing. My workaround is to type a space before hitting enter (not sure why that makes the selection go to the first one).

This builds on #3. Give that the tab switcher has an option to show tabs from all windows, then I would propose a further option whereby pinned tabs (from all windows) are listed first, before unpinned tabs.

Rationale:

I often have certain web apps open (e.g. gmail, gcal, etc) that I want to treat like stand-alone applications (as you can on chrome OS, and then use alt-1,2,3... to open / return to them). In the Chrome browser, I normally pin those. If those pinned tabs then appeared at the top of the switcher list (in the order in which the appear, rather than last used), one could very quickly switch back to them.

Right now with the tab list open you can use arrow keys to move up and down in the list. It'd be super handy if Ctrl-N (next/down) and Ctrl-P (previous/up) were supported too.

The current chrome extension is built on v2 of manifest.json. It must be upgraded to v3.

Hello, I noticed that I can't install the extension in the Chrome Web Store.

Currently if the list is tall enough to scroll, you can arrow up or down and select elements that are not visible in the list.

I can't run npm start successfully because of the following error:

npm ERR! 404 Registry returned 404 for GET on https://registry.npmjs.org/esprima-six npm ERR! 404 npm ERR! 404 'esprima-six' is not in the npm registry. npm ERR! 404 You should bug the author to publish it (or use the name yourself!) npm ERR! 404 It was specified as a dependency of 'derequire'

The popup always shows on your main monitor - running windows 7.

Currently, only the active window is polled.

It would be nice to order by recently active, so you could quickly jump back and forth between tabs with a lot of open tabs.
