Tab Mix Plus

In Fx 11.0, after a bit of trial and error, it appears that TMP's (0.4.0.2pre.120417a) nifty new NEW Rename Tab Panel ( viewtopic.php?f=3&t=16189 ) conflicts with, surprisingly, Compact Menu 2 v4.3.1 ( https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefo ... ct-menu-2/ ), and not the ClassicCompact Theme ( https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefo ... ct/?src=ss ), which I at first suspected. With both extensions enabled (48 total, including Piro's TreeStyleTab v0.14.2012021101, and the apparently abandoned, yet still essential (?) Mr. Tech's Tool Kit)), selecting Rename Tab yields nothing visible. Disabling CompactMenu restores the new Rename Tab Panel.

This has occurred since the new panel's introduction.

However, Selecting "Rename this tab regardless of its address" only works at times (the pattern of which I do not know).

There was also a problem getting Reload Tab to work, but this seems to have cleared up...

Side Note: Setting TMP to highlight the color of Focused Tabs works here if in TST, under Appeareance, "Skin of the Tab bar" is set to "Default" (specified by the Theme), but does not work here if set to at least one other selection. I am not sure if I checked that with running Fx's Default theme yet, but I know it isn't working under ClassicCompact.

Thanks very much for all of your efforts!

Compact Menu 2 v4.3.1 brake all popup panel in Firefox by replacing the global function
document.loadOverlay

this is Tabmix code to load the panel for the first time,
with Compact Menu installed the call-back function inside the loadOverlay never run


please report about this to Compact Menu developer ASAP

Thank you for your very timely reply! OK, will do. I will include a link to this thread, if that's ok.

Any ideas about the problems keeping a Renamed Tab renamed, as that occurs when CompactMenu is disabled?

Thanks again!

No

can you post steps to reproduce this ?

I submitted your findings, with this thread's url, via the Compatibility Reporter, for CM2, as their Support Forum doesn't seem to show activity for months. I will post details of renaming attempts, probably tomorrow evening. Thanks again for your great work, and assistance!

I can confirm this is happening to me also, and I cannot see a pattern. I set the option, and my defined name 'sticks' for a while, then all of a sudden, I notice that the page's own name has taken over. I go through my tabs, and rename them all again, and I notice that the tick-box in some has lost its tick.

I have reverted to 4.0.1 pro tem, but if you want extra detail, I shall re-install 4.0.2.

OK...

I have installed a new copy of FF Portable, specifically for this exercise. (I have until now been using the standard version of FF.)

I have 5 regular tabs, and have just added one for this forum, for a total of 6.the first five have been renamed as:
DOpus, Calibre, iPhone, POPFile, Tab Mix Plus. They are also protected.
The sixth one is renamed as iGoogle, and is frozen.

I have just finished setting up this configuration, and on checking, I find that the Rename tick-boxes for Calibre, Tab mix Plus and iGoogle have been cleared, although all six tabs had their tick-boxes set as part of the initial setup.

I generally operate in the one FF window, switching from tab to tab as required. I will often use the iGoogle tab to seek out new sites, and open them in a new tab automatically. I have just done this, searching on the word weather, and as the iGoogle tab had lost its tick, the name has changed to weather - Google Search.

The disappearance of the ticks seems to be random.

Apart from the TMP add-on, the only other active add-on is the RoboForm toolbar, which I need for all of my browsing.

Do you log in to this forum in the 'Tabs mix Plus' tab or iGoogle?
The latest TMP has an option to rename a tab regardless of its address, have you used that?

I use the Tab Mix Plus tab to log in to the TMP forum.

I am using the new Rename panel, with its rename, regardless of address option.

Odd 'cause it's working fine for me. I assume TMP is the only ext. in this profile, right?

Except for the RoboForm toolbar.

It was specifically because of the problem with the new Rename panel that I reverted to TMP 4.0.1 for my standard environment. This is being typed in the FF Portable setup I installed so that I could provide details of the problem I am having, with a minimum of outside influences.

Try a clean profile, TMP only, no RoboForm.

I disabled RoboForm, and reloaded FF Portable.

A different set of 3 tabs have lost their ticks in the new Rename panel.

"Rename this tab regardless of its address" doesn't work unless you reset it while the panel is open

So far, so good with the new dev build.

Spoke to soon, I'm afraid...

I added a few of my preferred add-ons, and restarted FF Portable.

Immediately, 3 of my 6 tabs lost their Rename ticks.

I restored the ticks, then disabled all but TMP, and restarted FF Portable.

Three tabs had again lost their ticks.

I restored the ticks and restarted FF Portable, and another 3 randomly selected tabs had lost their ticks.

EDIT: When restoring the ticks, I first select the tab in question, so that tab's content is on view, just in case it makes a difference.
