Verdi Heinz (ID: 000000dbed88dd27) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 10/06/2022 This should be built into Chrome! Anything that saves time like this, is worth it's bytes in gold. In fact, I like it so much, I'm even thinking of some features requests : ) 1. Choose the length of the panes so you don't have to scroll the doc list in large screens (or set to 90 VH). 2. Add search box. When you type, less docs are shown based on your query. 3. Optionally show the number of docs per type, further making you realize how silly you're being having all those tabs open : ) 4. Ability to close a tab, right from the pane, saving even more time. Thanks for the extension, cheers!
