posted 6 years agoThanks for the review! I will look into what is causing the new window to open up, potentially the list is not being cleared properly on save. The extension is designed to save links from all open tabs of all non-private windows into the list. When "Restore All" is clicked, the saved links are restored in newly created windows.
For example, if when you hit save you had the following windows/tabs:
- Window 1: Tab A, B, C
- Window 2: Tab D, E, F
After closing and reopening your browser you already have one window open and potentially multiple tabs. Clicking "Restore All" will result in the following:
- Window 1: Tab X, Y, Z, ... [This is the state of your current window; it should be unchanged from before clicking "Restore All"
- Window 2: Tab A, B, C
- Window 3: Tab D, E, F
Do you think this is a good way to tackle preserving Window organization? Other options include appending the tabs of the first saved window (A, B, C) to the current window and only creating a new window for the subsequent saved windows.
Please submit a github issue with steps to reproduce this bug if you can: https://github.com/avbhatt/tabs/issues
I think your idea to prompt to save tabs on close is great. I will look into that for sure. In an effort to make this extension as non-intrusive as possible I may have to include some sort of options page to configure this. If you would like to submit a feature request, please do so on the same github issues page: https://github.com/avbhatt/tabs/issues
Again, thank you for the feedback. I truly appreciate it.
