Quoting bkmjhughes, reply 3997080

I have an issue with AltTabby, specifically with respect to grouping of Google Chrome tabs. In the settings I have turned off "group windows of the same app". However AltTabby is grouping some Google Chrome tabs but not other Google Chrome tabs. In the following screenshot, all Google Chrome Tabs are in the same browser window)

 what's most irritating about this is that when I invoke AltTabby, the tabs that are grouped for Google Chrome are in a collapsed state with a triangle beside it, which I have to click to access the grouped tabs, adding friction to the workflow 

 your help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Have you enabled the option to promote some recent tabs as top level windows?  If so those are promoted to top level so wouldn't be under the main window.  Tabs would be under the main window unless it is told to promote all.

That said if you are using it to switch tabs for a given app (so alt+` etc - or a custom hotkey), we are making a tweak so it doesn't group them at all in that situation.

For adjusting pinning for alt+`, just configure it as a custom hotkey, you can then pick if it is sticky or not.

I think that I found the reason why some Chrome Tabs were promoted to top level windows and not other Chrome tabs. I had the "max recent tabs" set to 20 max. I changed this setting to "all" and now AltTabby is showing all Chrome tabs at the top level as I wanted.

Regarding the use of custom hotkeys, what I am looking for is one specific configuration that will allow me to switch back and forth between the current Chrome tab window and another chrome tab window without AltTabby being sticky. However, I don't know how to configure this. Your help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Voilà, en épinglant, les fenêtres apparaissent en double !🙁


Il faut que les fenêtres épinglées n'apparaissent plus du tout dans la catégorie ‘Ouvrir les fenêtres’.
S'il vous plait permettez ce paramétrage !

I have AltTabby set to the thumbnail view and love almost everything about it.  What I'd really like is a way to configure it so it fills rows first and then columns the same way the native Alt-Tab interface does.

Sometimes I have to quit and relaunch AltTabby a couple of times before it works
