Hotkeys to move tabs around
Move Tab Hotkeys (Chrome Number Pad Keys) Extension
This is a variant of the Move Tab Hotkeys extension (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/move-tab-hotkeys/paafmjjgeiociknojggclhkbkaffjgoe). This adds additional commands for moving the tab to the first or last position on the Tab bar to work around Chrome's limitation of 4 keyboard commands per extension.
The following hotkeys are provided:
* Alt+Shift+NumPad-0 (with NumLock on): Move tab to the start of the tab bar
* Alt+Shift+NumPad-0 (with NumLock off): Move tab to the start of the tab bar
* Alt+Shift+NumPad-9 (with NumLock on): Move tab to the end of the tab bar
* Alt+Shift+NumPad-9 (with NumLock off): Move tab to the end of the tab bar
These keys can be changed in Chrome's extensions keyboard shortcuts page.
Multi-Selected Tabs:
If you select multiple tabs at once, you can move them as a group. This can be turned off on the Options page if you prefer to only move the current tab even when others are selected.
Notes on Pinned Tabs:
* If you have any pinned tabs, pinned tabs and non-pinned tabs are treated like separate tab bars. Non-pinned tabs move to start/end of the non-pinned tabs section.
* If multiple tab selection is enabled and you select a group containing both pinned and non-pinned tabs, no movement will be possible.
