Tina Holly (ID: 000000cb49edc081) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 03/22/2017 Mostly good. Sometimes the popup goes blank so I need to go into my extensions then disable and re-enable it. It would be nice if I didn't have to do that. Still 5 stars. Love it.

Hi Lo (ID: 000000dcced8e736) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 02/15/2016 Great. I've been using CCMenu, which runs on the OSX system tray, but it doesn't show results for all branches. This extension shows all the branches automatically, just what I was looking for. Please also consider making this a "panel" interface so it will show in the system tray (http://stackoverflow.com/q/9487446/18706).
