GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 326954
Interface doesn't react when more tabs than window width.
Last modified: 2006-01-16 00:09:24 UTC
When we have too much tabs (when arrows appears), and we still adding tabs, the interface doesn't react to that additions, so the user can't figure out if the tabs are being opened until click the arrow to the end of the tab lists. Epiphany has fixed tabs, which infringes the HIG (Tabbed Notebooks chapter). I think that epiphany should behave like firefox in that sens, invisible tabs are not a good aproach, at least, it shouldn't has fixed size and it should somehow inform the user that more tabs are being opened. Other information: The chapter of the hig: http://developer.gnome.org/projects/gup/hig/2.0/controls-notebooks.html
