[Solved] does thunar support tabs in xubuntu?

georgelappies · 2011-04-28 04:34:31

Hi all,

At the moment I am using xubuntu 11.04 64bit and I am loving it I was just wondering if there was a way to enable tabs in thunar?

No, Thunar does not support tabbed browsing.

Cheers,

Jérôme

Mmmm, pitty. Any plans to have it in the future? Maybe in 4.10?

No, we (all devs) are against it.

Interesting, may I ask as to the reasons why?

Bad usability and there are already similar file managers that provide tabs.

Hi Nick
I find tabbed file managers quite usable - what aspects of bad usability do you see?

+1! I love Thunar just the way it is! I love how well it works, and my favorite feature is how easy it is to extend its functionality with Thunar's Configure Custom Actions. If I need to view other directories at the same time, I just launch a second instance of Thunar. Plus, we have a Thunar Custom Action in Phoenix/Phinx (the PCLinuxOS Xfce releases) that allows us to copy/move files very, very easily.
