Eugene L (ID: 000000c1a74eb687) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 11/09/2023 超棒! 按f11进入全屏 然后按alt+v按需调用 真干净!

一帆 (ID: 0000009ba9c02ec5) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 11/07/2023 功能简单好用,再提几个期待实现的功能点: 1、标签页标题字体大小调整,现在有点大了,我试了好像是不跟随chrome的字体设置改变。 2、右键菜单里只有“将标签移至新窗口”,没有顶部标签页右键里的“将标签移至另一个窗口”选项。 3、搜索结果里右键菜单不可用。 如果作者没时间搞,不知道有没有兴趣开源一下,试用了几个之后觉得这个是做的看起来最像原生chrome功能的了简约大方,再一起丰富完善下就真完美了。

Christian Pineda (ID: 00000066ca6a2b73) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 11/06/2023 This is exactly what I was looking for, in FireFox I have an extension that shows your tabs vertically inside the browser, for some reason most of them here in chrome do not do that. They would pop when you click the extension icon, hover the mouse over the icon or even worse open a new window for the tabs. Not sure why they are all like that. Anyways, this one will open you mess of tabs on a side panel inside the browser, how is meant to be. Great extension. thanks
