TreeTabs2 Documentation

This is an old revision of the document!

More documentation will follow shortly!

Groups are similar to folders - both are just ways to store tabs.

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. —-

Folders, just like tree “branches” can be collapsed by clicking on the parent icon:

Here, the smaller group is active, so you can't even see the tabs that are in the larger “unnamed” group:

It depends on how you like to organize your tabs. Folders let you keep everything on one screen, optionally minimized into a tidy label. Groups let you work with a group of tabs (say, for a specific project/task) without being cluttered by tabs from another project/task.

Hi Thomas, is it not clear how to add open tabs to groups or folders… So far I just ended up dragging the tabs from Ungrouped to a new Group. Seems to be working… Is that how it works? Thanks!

Yes, use Drag&Drop to put tabs into folders and/or groups.

I am testing a new feature that will automatically move tabs into folders when the web address matches a rule that you could define. For example, tabs for youtube.com could automatically get moved into a group called YT. Until that gets implemented, tabs must be manually dragged & dropped.

Hi Tom Is there a way to have the TT2 window stay popped up after opening a tab? I like to click through tabs, but the window keeps closing. If not, I'd like to request this feature.

Thanks and love TT2 !
