Tabs

Open Splitwirez opened this issue 5 years ago • 2 comments

Title says it all. Many Windows users want tabs in File Explorer, so if Jaya delivered such functionality in an otherwise similar program, that could be a major win for appeal to Windows users.

Additionally, IIUC tabs are already fairly commonplace on macOS and Linux, so I'd imagine such a feature would be welcome - perhaps even expected - on those platforms as well.

I'd say taking an approach to their placement in the GUI similar to what most web major browsers would be a good idea, and presumably not super problematic to implement, seeing as Jaya already uses a custom Titlebar.

P.S. Given your response to my last issue, I presume this isn't intended...I still can't add labels to my issues (well, that or I've misremembered how to do so). I'm not sure if that's on you or just weirdness with my browser, though...

Hmmm.... interesting idea @Splitwirez . Actually I thought about this long ago but never got a chance to document it anywhere. Thanks for filing it as an issue, now this idea won't be lost in the sands of time.

Tab stuff is a must have for such a software to reach out more users in an appealing way.

Here's that mockup, containing my proposed tab design, among other things.
