Bad developers! Sit! Sit!

Should be a snap exposing the pref in the preferences ui. Someone should 
just file a bug for it. Current default setting true is ok for me and so 
I am too lazy to do it :)


rsx11m usually does the pref ui changes so set him on cc. If he doesn't 
have time I will do it.


Because of the necessary string change even if implemented won't make it 
before 2.49 which is since yesterday the current SeaMonkey Nightly version.

While that says "optional", I can't find any button/toggle to turn it on

due to 'fixing' something in some of the other related bugs mentioned in

Interesting that this is a feature in SeaMonkey, but my Windows Firefox 
Nightly 52.0a1 still shows "browser.taskbar.previews.enable;false" as 
the default.


I notice that there is a "browser.taskbar.previews.max;20" in my 
SeaMonkey and Firefox, so if the user still wants to see previews, they 
could limit the number of them showing in the taskbar.

This looks to me like an OS feature, not a SM feature.

In earlier versions of Windows (I have Win7), you could control this
behavior by setting the Taskbar properties. Here are the Win7
instructions; they're probably similar on Win8 but I can't guarantee
it:

Right-click an empty area on the Taskbar and choose "Properties."

In the dialog that appears, on the "Taskbar" tab, there's an option for
"Taskbar buttons:" with a pull-down list:
[Always combine, hide labels]
[Combine when taskbar is full]
[Never combine]

The third option will do what you're describing. Choose a different one
and you'll get different results.

You don't have to unlock the taskbar to do this.


Yes, I know about this and the taskbar in Win8 Pro.  I settled on Always
combine and hide labels not long after getting this machine in Nov 2012.
  It's not the OS.  It is a SeaMonkey feature.  I just checked Fx 45.3
ESR and it listed there also and set by user to "false".  Again, I don't
recall when I changed the preference.  I make so many tweaks that I
can't recall a lot of them.


Desiree, did you make the change or not?? If the preference is as
installed, it is dull grey'ish text, but if *you* change a pref, it
switches to *USER* in Bold text!!


I made the change.  It's in bold (but all text is in bold for me on
Windows 8 - I use Verdana Bold forced everywhere through Window Blinds)
but it says "USER".  I just don't recall like I used to ...I'm getting
old.  :(


I'm tossing up ... should I reply "getting??" or "Join the club!!" ;-P

Just found out on IRC that this is a SeaMonkey feature, so your default
profile is broken. ;-)

When did it become a feature?  I checked the default profile and it was 
user set to "false".  I don't recall setting it that way but then my 
memory is not what it was when I was younger and the default profile is 
OLD...very old so if this is an older "feature" I wouldn't likely 
remember changing the preference.


My default profile is "broken" in another way though.  It won't play 
TWCTV on demand TV shows which uses Flash Player.  Fx 45.3 ESR won't 
either on its very old default profile.  So, I created the newer 
SeaMonkey profile mainly to get that working which it does just fine.


Changing the preference also fixed Task Manager so it no longer lists 
every tab but just the one that has focus.

This isn't SeaMonkey doing what Mozilla is starting to do with

SeaMonkey in Task Manager.  It is making a huge mess of Task Manager. 
I don't plan on installing whatever version of Fx forces electrolysis 
and I don't want it on SeaMonkey either!


This is NOT happening on my default SeaMonkey profile but on one I 
don't use often and have few extensions on.  So, is there a setting 
that I have forgotten about in about:config that I need to set to stop 
it doing this?


Just found out on IRC that this is a SeaMonkey feature, so your default 
profile is broken. ;-)

I'm seeing it using my Default profile, clicking any tab opens the 
browser to that tab for me. Aslo in safe mode and witha fresh test profile.


Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; WOW64; rv:43.0) Gecko/20100101 SeaMonkey/2.40

Advertising Firefox Compatibility didn't help.

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; WOW64; rv:43.0) Gecko/20100101 
Firefox/43.0 SeaMonkey/2.40


Has nothing to do with electrolysis. My Firefox Nightly with 
electrolysis enabled doesn't display the problem.


Happy your default profile works.

Try setting browser.taskbar.previews.enable to false in about:config. 
Default is true.
