Jarno (ID: 000000495d168382) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 03/13/2017 I found the extension works quite well with settings: - Flip type: "All tabs wall" - Display type: "Tab" Gives you similar view than Safari's "Show all Tabs" Little bit buggy lining up the grid, especially with big number of open tabs. if i have more than 12 tabs open some of them dissappear out of screen. I guess ctrl-t shortcut would work better on macOS computers, alt-t shortcut forces the keyboard to type letter † if any of the text fields are active. Great work though, looking forward for updates!
