ˑ (ID: 000000b9da6edc81) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 11/26/2022 5 звездочек ставлю авансом. Приложение отличное, но необходимо доработать: 1. В настройках добавить выбор сохранения (и закрытия) как закрепленных, так и не закрепленных вкладок. 2. Доделать работу фильтра и сортировки. Непонятно, как фильтруются результаты. Желательно, чтобы они фильтровались и по наименованию, и по адресу. Еще неприятный нюанс: после фильтрования из наименований исчезает крестик и удалить отфильтрованные результаты невозможно. Сортировку по времени дополнить сортировкой по домену. (А в идеале - еще и по имени). 3. Было бы неплохо, если бы все сохраненные адреса загружались на странице расширения сразу и не приходилось бы каждый раз жать на кнопку снизу "Загрузить еще". Это на любителя. Мне, например, совсем неудобно. 4. Автоудаление дубликатов в процессе сохранения страниц, а не потом вручную. 5. Отображать адреса не только бесформенным облаком, но и списком (столбцом). По одному адресу на строку. 6. Этот пункт уже роскошь, но. Хотелось бы самому перетаскивать группы и сохраненные вкладки внутри группы и между группами, а так же редактировать (переименовывать) и тех, и других от руки. 7. Этот пункт тоже роскошь. Сохранение (и закрытие) не всех открытых вкладок сразу, а только текущей. Через контекстное меню страницы и/или контекстное меню кнопки в тулбаре. ПС: Сделайте, пожалуйста, хотя бы первый пункт. У меня по-умолчанию все вкладки авто-закрепленные. Очень надо! Большое спасибо за ваш труд!!!
