How are Tab Groups superior to using windows for tab groupings?

With Mac OS 10.5 I have been using windows as a defacto method for tab groupings. When tabs get two crowded, I open a new window. I have to move between windows to get to all tabs in a group.
The Tab Grouping instructions don't address moving tabs from multiple windows into a single large group, say, for charts on a large number of stocks.
[A disadvantage with my multiple window system has been my occasional misstep, e.g., closing a window full of tabs with the red button when I intended to minimize the widow with the yellow button, or, worse, when I get the option after a Firefox crash or power loss to Restore windows and tabs or Start a New Session and I hit the Start New session Button; in either event I lose the tabs and/or windows affected.]

I don't ever use it because I think it is odd to have tabs floating around my desktop but you can drag Snippets, Connections and Reports outside the SQL Developer Window - Detail tabs and the Worksheet can't be. Not sure if this works on a Mac or if this is what you were looking for but wanted to mention it.

  • How do I get the Tab Group names to appear above the Tabs?

    At one point the names of all my Tab Groups appeared above the Tabs. That is, on every page there's a horizontal list of open Tabs. Above that there used to be a similar looking horizontal list of all Tab Groups. Now that horizontal list of Tab Groups is gone.
    This was useful for rearranging and re-categorizing Tabs into different Groups because I could see the whole page for any given Tab, and could move the Tab to a different Tab Group simply by clicking on the Tab and dragging to to any Group in the Tab Groups section above the Tabs section. This was usually easier than rearranging Tabs on the Tab Groups page (accessed by clicking the "Group your tabs" icon at the upper right of the display).
    I don't know how this feature got there or why it went away, but I liked it.
    How can I get this back?

    Tab groups were the primary reason I used Firefox (since the beginning).
    Now that they are gone, so am I !!!!!
    -- However ... good news! ... they are not gone, just a tiny bit more difficult to manage.
    You right click on the tab and select Move To Group. You then create new tab groups within the Tab Group interface. Once you've done that, the familiar Tab Group boxes icon appears in the upper right hand corner of each Group in full display.
    Having done it a few times, I can't even remember now what the original method was precisely. But all the functions are still there -- that's the important thing! And I'm still here on Firefox (at least until the next bone-headed crisis....)

  • Need to Remove the tabs group Title from browser window title

    When I use a saved tab group, which means I named that tab group in FF 5,''' the name of the tab group appears at the top of the browser along with the title of the web page I am viewing'''. Not good, I need to remove that tab group title from the browser window title, so I am only seeing the title of the webpage, and nothing from the tab group. How do I do that?
    thanks

  • Tab groups - set default size of single tab group in a window?

    When I have a single tab group in a window, and enter the tab-group-view-mode (the one for which ctrl-shift-e is the default), the tab group box only fills up a limited portion of the upper left corner of the window.
    I can of course resize it with the mouse, but how can I set it to fill up the whole space by default?

    I know its all open, in the past you could add a style sheet to the file grabbing the styles Reference[http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=2443805] but I am not sure if this is supported anymore?
    [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Developer_guide/Customizing_Firefox] may be helpful too, but I do not think that the document is complete.
    If you open the size of the Group tab is should stay that size, I do not think there is a way to change the default size yet.

  • The organization of tab-groups isn't working properly because tab-groups now go in to hiding behind other tab-groups why is that?

    When I try to change the size and placing of the tab-groups some of the tab-groups gets under the tab-group i'm changing and the tab-groups can't be organized as good as in firefox 4. This is very annoying since I love the tab-groups.

    Nissan,
    Thanks for the response, I did move some items around in the hierarchy, which apparently could have been the source of the original problem. However, I have too remaining dilemas/issues/questions for those interested in understanding why tabs are so disfunctional:
    1. I checked the XML and the Traverse tags are what I want, but not how the tab order is behaving? What could be causing this??
    2. I selected all the fields I wanted from the form, copied them and pasted onto a new form, and still had tab order problem. I was hoping whatever got messed up would be restablished correctly by pasting them in the new form. Anybody got an idea what could be copied that tweaks the tab order?

  • Should I use Windows for Filetopia?

    I'd like to download Filetopia but their info says it's only compatible with Windows.
    At this point, I haven't used Windows for anything and am concerned about viruses.
    BTW, I was invited into a secure chat group on Filetopia.

    HI,
    Installing Windows on your Mac requries doing your homework first. It can be a daunting task at best depending on your computer background and experience.
    To install Windows on a Mac just for one application which would deem your Mac vulnerable to viruses (on the Windows partition only) doesn't quite seem worth the work.
    If you were to install Windows using BootCamp, you might want to check out the BootCamp Manual here first. http://manuals.info.apple.com/en/bootcampinstall-setup.pdf

  • Since I upgraded to os 5.1 for my iPhone I can no longer type in reminders. Any suggestions how to get around having to use siri for reminders?

    since I upgraded to os 5.1 for my iPhone I can no longer type in reminders. Any suggestions how to get around having to use siri for reminders?

    Unfortunately, I have a very similar problem. Since I upgraded to os 5.1 on my new iPhone 4S the reminders screen will not add new reminders or scroll up and down. What's more strange is the screen will still scroll side to side allowing access to the Completed list, and both the Completed list and Date functions work normally so this must be an upgrades glitch.

  • Can I use Windows for Mac in iCloud?

    Hello, I would like to use Windows for Mac or any similar program, but I don't want to store it on my hard drive. Can I use it in iCloud, or any other Cloud environment?
    Would you recommend a good Windows for Mac type of program?
    Thank you!

    A virtual machine is a program, see my above post, that lets you install Windows in a virtual environment on your computer. You can not run Windows from iCloud or any other cloud.
    As for cost, you have to by the virtual machine (about $60). You also have to buy Windows (about $99). Or you could use Boot Camp Assitant to install Windows. Boot Camp Assistant is included with OSx. Windows will still cost about $99.

  • Can i retain my app tabs & tab groups in new firefox window after i close one ??

    Just upgraded to Firefox 5 and used the awesome features of app tabs and tab groups, but ah ! i closed my browser and when i opened it again, everything was lost. :(
    How can i retain my app tabs and tab groups when i open a new browser window after closing the one in which these were created ?
    Will be a great help if we can do it.

    Thx for your answer.
    But when I select the option to empty everything when I close Firefox I can chose what is deleted
    - Cookies
    - Download history
    - Cache
    etc...
    There should be an option for pinned tabs. Especially because this tabs are not simple tabs but tabs you want to keep.
    The only solution I have found so far is to keep emptying everything and to ask to Firefox to start a folder of bookmarks as my homepage (homepage <=> several URLs separated with | )
    But it opens wide tabs and not small pinned ones :/
    We should have the option !

  • I hate Tabs (and tab groups), give me independent windows!

    Raptor/SQLDev 10.1.3--1215
    The little collapsing panes like Connections, Reports, Snippets work really well to maximize usable area, but constraining all the file windows to a single Raptor window is a pain in the neck.
    I'm using Raptor on a two-screened Macintosh and I simply can't make use of all my screen if the edit windows all need to live in the main Raptor window.
    This style of UI was created by Microsoft as "Multiple-Document Interface" in the early 1990's and frankly it never worked for me. I want to see windows side-by-side, I want to be able to overlap them partially when I need to without resizing them. And on my Mac, I have this cool Exposé feature letting me find independent windows really, really easily. Won't work with Raptor.
    Please provide a way to have edit windows (or tab groups) outside the main Raptor frame.

    I don't ever use it because I think it is odd to have tabs floating around my desktop but you can drag Snippets, Connections and Reports outside the SQL Developer Window - Detail tabs and the Worksheet can't be. Not sure if this works on a Mac or if this is what you were looking for but wanted to mention it.

  • How are user groups defined in Mac OS 10.x

    Thus far, my guess is that Mac OS determines which users are members of particular pre-defined groups.
    For example, if I want to give other users in my home network read and write permissions to a particular folder, I might add the pre-defined group 'netuser' to group in the get info window and give the group right and write permissions.
    I am correct in this?
    I used to administer a Windows NT server and workstations and could give permissions to domain users, as opposed to local users on the various machines.
    I imagine it might be pretty much the same if I had Macintosh server software installed or whatever.
    My chief concern is understanding permissions in relation to Qmaster distributed processing with a home network.
    Advice and clarifications are most welcome.
    --Cris

    Thanks for the link to the ars tecnica site article on permissions and acl's.
    Actually, I am quite happy with Unix group limitations. I am just still trying to understand how to create a group, and users to the group, and to control how new folders and files are given permissions inside their parent folders.
    Can you recommend an article that explains how to create new groups, and associate users with groups?
    I now have a case where I am trying to figure out how to use QMaster for distributed processing. I was observing problems writing to the second computer, a service node. Even when the first machine, client and cluster controller, was not listed in the upper pane of QAdmin as belonging to the cluster, cluster storage would default to the first machine. So, I made the second machine a cluster controller and service node as well, and sent a job from my first computer, the client, to a cluster that only had the second computer. This worked. Only problem, is that the new folders and file written in the cluster storage assigned to a folder on the second computer have ownership and group changed to the user which is my log in (admin) on the first computer. That in itself wouldn't necessarily be a problem save that I cannot delete the files from the first machine as my account doesn't have necessary permissions. Perhaps that is because earlier, in a botched effort to get Qmaster to work for me, I had created a local account on the second machine with the same name as my admin account on the first machine. That account is now deleted, and I have reset Qmaster preference many times since then, so this is may be a red herring.
    The Apple document "Distributed Processing Set-up" says:
    "All the computers in a cluster need Read and Write access to any computers (or storage devices) that will be specified as output destinations for files."
    I'm just not sure how to go about that.
    Thanks,
    Cris

    <tr><td>Purchasing Workbook 2</td></tr>

    <table>
    <tr><th>Group Name: CEO</th></tr>
    <tr><td>CEO Workbook 1</td></tr>
    <tr><td>CEO Workbook 2</td></tr>

    How can I achieve this grouping using XSL ? Has anybody tried customizing the XSL file to achieve grouping of workbooks by name?
    Any help is highly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

    Here is a quick summary on why this works...
    The Problem:
    The issue relies with the method and logic that MDT’s scripts use to query and validate that the proper disks, partitions and storage space reside before starting the installation of Windows.
    Essentially what you have configured in the Task Sequence and the UNATTEND.xml is analyzed by the MDT scripts then a validation is completed against the hardware in which you wish to install Windows
    on and if there are any errors you will be prompted with MDT Error or Warning dialogs.
    The problem is that the MDT scripts use WMI to query the hard disk, partition and free space requirements for Windows, but in the case of using GPT disk, the 2nd partition (MSR) that you have to create
    is hidden. The class that WMI uses for its query can’t see the MSR partition so instead of 3 partitions, it returns 2 in the query results; hence why DISK 0 PARTITION 3 doesn’t work as mentioned earlier when configured in the MDT Task Sequence.
    Although the above still confuses me as to why it works with DISK 0 PARTITION 2 since the WMI query results return PARTITION IDs 0 and 1 when it should return 1 and 2…
    The Windows Pre-Installation Environment however does see all 3 partitions correctly and we tried configuring in our Task Sequence to install Windows to DISK 0 and PARTITION 2 and in the UNATTEND.xml
    file to install Windows to DISK 0 and PARTITION 3 but due to timing issues of the way Windows installs with MDT, did this not work for us.
