I was trying out the new feature in Vim 7.3 where you can drag-and- drop tab pages to re-order them, and discovered quickly that it only works when I am not using the guitabline, only when using the textual tabline (i.e. it only has any effect to drag-n-drop when 'guioptions' does not contain 'e').
While playing with this, I noticed colors in the tabline, which I had not seen before when using the guitabline. I played around a little, and convinced myself that user colors don't work in the GUI tab line either, just in the textual tab line. Is this the case? I tested by setting guitabline to %1*%N%0* and setting the User1 highlight group to have a foreground and background color, and to be bold, but there was no extra highlighting of the tab number. I'm thinking about switching to using the textual tab line instead of the GUI one, so that I can get drag-n-drop and user highlight groups. Are there any additional features available on the textual tabline that are not available in the GUI tab line? Are there any features of the GUI tab line that are not available in the textual tab line? I've noticed that guitabtooltip only works with the GUI tab line but I don't really use this feature very often. By the way...the :help should probably mention these limitations...I saw no mention of them. -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
