====== TreeTabs2 Documentation ====== More documentation will follow shortly! ===== Fix Opera's (silly, waste-of-screen-space) New Sidebar Default ===== I don't understand why so many corporate software vendors make changes to their software that users don't want. Software is supposed to be designed for the users, but too many big corporations don't understand that. To fix this: {{ :blog:treetabs:opera_tweak.png?600 |}} - Type **about:flags** in the address bar - Search for **sidebar** - Change **Sidebar extensions in browser sidebar** to **disabled** {{ :blog:treetabs:opera_about_flags_tweak.png?600 |}} - Click the Restart button, or manually restart Opera ===== Groups vs. Folders ===== Groups are similar to folders - both are just containers that store tabs. Tabs get put into both by manually dragging and dropping them onto the folder or group. Here is an example showing folders, groups, and a tab tree. All "parents" show the number of children in a tiny overlay on the favicon. Notice how folders can be named (unlike tabs), and nested within other folders. {{ :blog:treetabs:demo-groups2.png?400 |}} ---- Folders, just like tree "branches" can be collapsed by clicking on the parent icon: {{ :blog:treetabs:demo-groups3.png?400 |}} ---- Here, the smaller group is active, so you can't even see the tabs that are in the larger "ungrouped" group: {{ :blog:treetabs:demo-groups4.png?400 |}} ---- ==== Which should you use? ==== It depends on how you like to organize your tabs. Folders let you keep everything on one screen, optionally minimized/collapsed into a tidy label. Groups let you work with a group of tabs (say, for a specific project/task) without being cluttered by a bunch of tabs from another project/task.
