tab-switcher's Issues

TabSwitcher + Pushbullet problem

My problem is, when I press shortcut, extension is not open/activate.
I found problem, when I deactivate my already loaded extensions. Problem is, when I activate Pushbullet.

Then I found solution in settings in Pushbullet.
Click Pushbullet icon, click settings (tab: basic settings) and uncheck last choise - Automatically attach the current tab to messages to a device.

Then both extensions work fine.

Make fuzzy search return closest match, as opposed to not matching at all

If I have a tab named "Tax Savings - ALEX", searching for "-a" should return this tab as one of the results. This doesn't mean it should supercede another tab with a title or URL containing "-a", but it should come up as secondary to those until more characters are typed that make an even closer match to it.

Similar to the Sublime Text fuzzy search.

Conflict with Youtube

Great work. Thanks Kamran.

But after this I noticed that Youtube suspiciously starts failing. I can search a video but when I click on it to play I get can not play video try again later and generally other link functionality in Youtube is also broken. I investigated it by disabling/re-enabling all my extensions and it seems to be this one. Console gives the following error:

Make the shortcut global

Allow typing the shortcut from anywhere so you can be in a different application, type the shortcut, type "inbox" and you're in your inbox.

Simply doesn't work

CTRL + SHIFT + K does not trigger the search palette.
Refreshed pages, rebooted chrome, installed, uninstalled and still doest not work.

[feature request] list recently closed tabs

I am using "Quick Tabs" extension and recently discovered this one. One feature I used a lot in "Quick Tabs" is to list recently closed tabs and reopen them. Hope tab-switcher can support this feature too.

Load insecure content issue.

the console says the following:

Not allowed to load local resource: chrome://theme/IDR_EXTENSIONS_FAVICON@2x
jquery.js:5323 Mixed Content: The page at 'https://www.google.com/' was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure image 'http://weibo.com/favicon.ico'. This content should also be served over HTTPS.

Addon only works for new tabs

It seems to me that the hotkey only works for newly opened tabs. I.e. after installing the extension, you can't access the search bar from within tabs which are 'older' then the addon installation.

Requests to load favicons leak current URL

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Open a few websites, at least one should load its favicon via https (so these steps always work)
  2. Open Developer Tools -> Network
  3. Open `Tab Switcher``
  4. Inspect one of the requests to load a favicon
  5. It includes the current URL in the HTTP Referer (sic)

Allow us to change the shortcut key

I just installed the extension because its seems like a good productivity tool. But damn is it hard to activate. CTRL+SHIFT+K?! That's so hard to press for me to use it regularly. I know I can just edit your js file and set up whatever I like but then I won't be able to get future updates from chrome store and all that good stuff.

Thanks!

Allow different up and down keys

Great plugin.

Would be really handy to bind the up/down keys to something else. For example Chrome address bar allows CTRL+P/CTRL+N Vim style.

Cheers

Shortcut collision with Pinboard extension

I know it's on the roadmap to allow modifying the shortcut, but as is the shortcut collides with the pinboard extension's shortcut, on macOS at least. Not sure if you're interested in changing the default shortcut, but I would guess that based on the target audience this could be a frequent issue.

Improve Sorting

Great project!

I would find it much more useful if, like Spotlight on Mac OS and other autocomplete tools, the list of matching tabs was sorted based on a basic set of common rules.

Some examples:

  • exact tab title match should be highest ranked
  • prefix-based matches should be ranked higher than matches in the middle of a tab's title or description
  • older / less used tabs should be weighted slightly lower

Windows Support

I made this steps:

  1. Installed the chrome extension in Chrome 53.0.2785.116 in Windows 8.1 Enterprise
  2. Closed Chrome
  3. Opened it
  4. Opened some tabs and browsed the internet
  5. Clicked Ctrl + Shift + K and Enter but nothing happened

Is this extension for Windows and/or just MacOS and Linux?

Thanks
