Missing "tab" arrows for selecting non-visible script tabs

Post by FrankAndrew »

Product: PrimalScript (64 Bit)
Build: v8.0.173
OS: Windows 10 Enterprise (64 Bit)
Build: v10.0.19044

Hi PrimalScript support team,

I have noticed recently that PSR is missing the "tab" selection arrows at the top right next to the script title tabs that would be used to move horizontally through the open files without having to resort to the flip down listbox.

Those arrows ARE in PowerShell Studio:

Did these disappear from PrimalScript or were they never there?
I seem to remember having them. I don't know when they disappeared but I need them back.
Thanks in advance.

The UI lib for PrimalScript (C++) and PowerShell Studio (C#) are not identical, so these two are never the same.
PrimalScript did have these buttons a loooong time ago. They where replaced with the hamburger menu which allows you to directly access the file you want.
The UI lib allows one or the other. I am not partial to either one, but at the time it seemed folks preferred the hamburger menu, since that is what Visual Studio has.

Hi Alex,
Thanks for the Info. If no else is having a problem with this then I will have to accept it also.

Take care.

I'll earmark it to potentially add an option.

But in the meantime, you can use Ctrl+F6 and Ctrl+Shift+F6 to scroll through the tabs forward and backwards.
