After playing around with several different browsers there are a couple
of minor "tweaks" I'd like to see to the Seamonkey interface.
I'd like to be able to close a tab from the tab itself. Firefox, Chrome
and even Internet explorer put a little "x" on the left side of the tab
(even an inactive one) that allows you to close the tab. With
Seamonkey, you have to bring the tab you want to close to the fore and
then mouse all the way over to the right and click the "X" over there.
As screens get higher and higher definitions, this gets more and more
inconvenient.
Only one other minor tweak I'd like to see, and that's in the playback
of HTML5 video. Chrome and Firefox have a little clickable "button" at
the bottom of the playback window that allows you to switch to full
screen. With Seamonkey, you have to right-click to bring up the menu
and select "Full Screen" from there.
These are more "convenience" items than anything else but it would
really "simplify" the experience for users, I think.
Thanks for hearing me out.
...I'd like to see all of the bugs that are preventing me from using the
Profile Manager fixed, and for SM to actually use my pref setting for
Master Password.
And fix the bug for following on-disk paths for .html files so I can
stop having to use Safari to open my Epson Help manual.
What bug is that? Every time I open SM it opens my home page, an
on-disk .html file.
I have a Web site with over 400 .html and .shtml files. I mirror the
site on one of my PC's hard drives. I have no problem navigating
through my local on-disc paths as if I were navigating the Internet
version on my ISP's Web server. The only difference is that my on-disc
home page is at <file:///D:/Web/myWeb/VCNet/index.html> while my
Internet version home page is at <http://www.rossde.com/>. Both
versions use relative links, but complete links --
<file:///D:/Web/myWeb/VCNet/....> or <http://www.rossde.com/....> (where
"...." represents a path and file name) -- also work.
Try using a Shortcut or Alias and see what happens...
...but I suspect this is a Mac only problem, and that's the way I wrote
the bug.
Windows 7
SeaMonkey 2.26
I have used Windows shortcuts (.lnk files) for several years to reach
selected on-disc local Web files. This is because updating those files
requires significant research, and the necessary spreadsheets and other
resouces are in folders separate from my mirrored Web site. I place
shortcuts to the relevant Web files in those folders.
I just now tested using an Internet shortcut (.URL file in Windows) to a
selected on-disc local Web file. It too works.
Yes, your problem is likely localized to Macs. I suspect that Linux has
even more flexibility than Windows for this.
I agree - I'd used it for year myself. It's another thing that used to
work and now doesn't.
