Thread: Better use of screen width for query tabs
Hi, Currently, the left browser tree panel is not collapsible, and the Properties/SQL/Statistics/Dependencies/Dependents tabs are not even closable, so together they take up nearly half my screen width. Because of this, I can only open up to 4-5 additional tabs before my tabs overflow, which is quite annoying. I have some suggestions: - Make the left browser tree collapsible - Make the Properties/SQL/Statistics/Dependencies/Dependents tabs closable. Add an option to reopen them e.g. in a menu somewhere. - Alternatively, move those tabs to the menu bar row. There is just so much space there right now.(right side of the Help menu). - Add an option so that when there are many tabs, instead of showing arrows to scroll back and forth, just keep shrinking the tab width like in a browser and keep the tab bar's width fixed/not scrollable. Thanks, Trung

Similar request has already been reported, https://redmine.postgresql.org/issues/5091. Please update this RM with additional changes.
