So I’m experimenting with Safari 3 (and 1password) for “recreational” browsing, and I like it a lot. It’s about 15 billion times faster than FF2, especially when I open, say, 50 tabs at the same time. (Don’t ask, it’s just the way I roll.)
This brings up the current infuriation. With Safari, as in firefox, if I open too many tabs, I only see a certain number and the rest get hidden in a drop-down sort of thing over to the side of the tab bar. But…in FF, the tab bar actually lets me slide back and forth along my open tabs, so I can always grab a tab and drag it around. I can also use keyboard shortcuts to move these tabs around. In Safari, if I open too many tabs the extras only seem to exist in the drop-down menu. I can’t find a way to “refocus” the tab bar the way firefox allows. I can’t “grab” the tab entry in the menu and drag that anywhere. The only way I’ve been able to reorder these tabs in Safari is to:- Select the tab
- Window > Move Tab to New Window (no keyboard shortcut by default)
- Drag THAT tab back onto the original window’s tab bar
Anyone have a better way or does this just plain suck?
