Description Sílvia Miranda 2007-08-11 12:23:50 UTC 
When you have many open tabs (so many that they don't fit in the window), you can use the forward/backwards arrows to browse all tabs. However, each time you click on one of the arrows, the active tab changes (it is always the "last one" that changes). 

It would be a good idea to be able to browse among the tabs without losing the focus on the current tab... (as Firefox does)

That's why I use only-one-close-button (live.gnome.org/Epiphany/ThirdPartyExtensions) extension so my tabs are always visible, if I recall correctly this is a GTK+ problem.

Christian?

The arrows are on GtkNotebook, the behaviour is entirely up to gtk.
