Hi,
Works fine for me!
Thanks! I have also added two other improvements (last ones I promise).
Clicking on the up and down buttons of the scrollbar in page mode jumps
to the top and bottom. And scrolling a full page, now takes into account
if the horizontal scrollbar is visible or not when computing the
overlap, so the number of pixels of overlap you specify are always
duplicated in the next page.
Now I'm starting to miss the page scrolling mode in other programs...
Also, do you usually set focus_new_tab to NO?, I'm considering
switching the default to NO. Same with show_quit_dialog.
I set 'NO' for both of those, but can understand why the original
decision was made to default to 'YES'.
I think that Dillo was originally trying to cater to beginners and
people unfamiliar with how a browser works, but times have changed and
maybe adjusting some of these defaults would better serve our actual
userbase.
I agree. Okay, so I will flip those then.
In my opinion this should also be the default:
right_click_closes_tab=NO
It may be a matter of preference, but that is how the other browsers do
it. Most people are probably used to using the middle click for
this, and so having it close the tab with the right click might be
unexpected and undesired.
I decided to leave on YES for a simple reason: the laptop I was using
Dillo on didn't have a middle button, so the only way to close the tabs
was to press both buttons at the same time to emulate the middle one (or
the X button). So I assumed that it is possible that the same scenario
happens to other people too which only use an old laptop, and they may
think that the only way to close tabs is on the X button on the right,
as we don't have an X over each tab.
Of course you can always change it to your preferences, but I think it
is a safer default this way to be easily discovered. In any case I have
not done any research to back my claims.
On my desktop I also use the right button, because I don't like clicking
the mouse wheel (I think in my mouse is really hard to press), but this
doesn't justify the defaults.
I would also prefer opening new tabs without the mouse wheel button or
the keyboard. So far I can to by clicking and holding the right button,
dragging a couple of pixels to the right to open in a new tab, then
releasing it. I'm thinking it may be nice to make this work without the
need of dragging, so by default it selects open in a new tab. We can
place a threshold to not consider quick press and release events to
cause the selection to be clicked.
The same may be also doable with the left button, so if you click but
keep it pressed for a configurable threshold it is opened in a new tab
(of the other way around).
Best,
Rodrigo.
