2 tricks for Firefox, 1 for KDE

Posted by Harry Seldon on August 22, 2008

I noticed these nice firefox 3 features haphazardly :
On the tab bar : 
you can duplicate a tab thanks to a ctrl+click
you can move the tabs left or right using your mouse scrolling button

By the way, one thing I do not understand for Firefox is why open new tab does not open your start page ?

1 trick for KDE
Right click on a window name bar and you have the option to keep the window above others. That is nice to do some copy/paste from one page to a notepad or also to keep the command line while typing code in an IDE….

Tile windows on Linux

Posted by Harry Seldon on August 09, 2008

In the same kind of ideas as my post on 2 monitors, it would be great to be able to tile windows under Gnome or KDE. Some people thought about it as some softs do it : whaw or a compiz plugin (but using compiz to do that is really an overkill).

Morover it is a common subject on forums : ubuntuformums or unbuntu-fr.

So Finally if you like getting well organized windows, vote for the idea on brainstrom :

PS I love brainstorm which is much like what I wanna do for Thinkosphere. First time I learnt about brainstorm I was searching on vote not on ubuntu !
