Scratch pad

Camino's current implementation is OK but I'd say it's to complicated for "normal" users. I much prefer the approach safari has. You either enable it or disable it. And with that you get further options. But on default users won't be surpised by it.

New Camino prefs

This is just my idea! Anybody is free to mock about. - I think it's save to asume that if some one enables tabs, they want other apps to open their links in tabs aswell

  • Enable tabbed browsing
    • Always show tab bar
    • Open links in the same tab/window as the link
    • Open links a new tab
  • Links from other applications
    • open in a new tab in the frontmost window
    • reuses the frontmost window
  • Command click on link:
    • opens in a new window
    • opens in a new tab
  • new windows and tabs
    • open in the background

Current Camino prefs

  • Tab bar:
    • Always show tab bar
  • Command click on link:
    • opens in a new window
    • opens in a new tab
  • new windows and tabs
    • open in the background
  • link from other applications
    • open in a new window
    • open in a new tab in the frontmost window
    • reuses the front most window

I think it is a very good idea to list our key combinations in this panel, tabbed browsing is a feature we should make as easy as possible. So providing the key combos directly where they can enable it is the best of all places to show them.

  • Our keycombo's
    • command-click opens link in a new tab/window, depending on pref
    • command-shit-click opens a link in a new or back tab, depending of pref

Current Firefox prefs

  • Open links from other applications in:
    • a new window
    • a new tab in the most recent window
    • the most recent tab/window
  • forec links that open new windows to open in:
    • the same tab/window as the link
    • a new tab
  • hide the tab bar whne only one site is open
    • select new tabs opened from links
    • warn when closing multiple tabs

Safari tab prefs

  • Enable tabbed browing
    • select new tabs as they are created
    • Always show tab bar
  • Seperatly apple lists all the shortcuts a user can use!
    • command-click opens link in a new tab
    • command-shit-click opens a link in a new tab and selects it
    • command-option-click open link in a new window behind the current one
    • command-option-shift-click open a new link in a new window and select it
