Closed this issue · 7 comments

Short description :

Color tabs tree when a child tab is opened , I mean that each tree could be colored in a different color : it's very useful to find quickly the different sections of your navigation !

Expected result :

(a click on a link opens a new tab in the same color of the current parent tab, the main parent tab is colored only when a child tab is opened).

Example :

Example

Second idea/example :

Actual result :

All tabs have the same color, not easy to distinguish the different sections.

Environment :

Platform (OS): Windows 10
Version of Firefox: 67.04
Version (or revision) of Tree Style Tab: 3.1.2

For information tst-colored-tabs is a Tree Style Tab extension that allow to color each tab based on current tab domain (but not allow to color each tree of tabs in a different color)
https://addons.mozilla.org/fr/firefox/addon/tst-colored-tabs/

The second example in my first post allow to combine tree coloration and tst-colored-tabs :

(powerful but may be a little hard to read, I think I prefer the first example of the first post)

Sorry but I have no plan to implement coloring feature of tabs, because it looks too far from basic tree management. Instead something another helper addon like TST Colored Tabs should implement that, via TST's API.

Thanks for your answer, you're right so I've made a request on the TST Colored Tabs repo.
By the way thank for this great addon, it brings me back to Firefox 😛
