Title: IBrowse 2.3 Question
Post by: Cluke on February 15, 2003, 09:13:11 PM

Hello all,
I'm using IB2.3 (v. nice update) but I'm wondering if there is a keyboard shortcut that allows you to cycle through the browsers in tabbed mode?

Left or Right ALT + any number

I hope this helps you...

Actually, this isn't quite right.  There are two methods:

1. Press any of the 1-0 keys to jump straight to any of the first ten browsers (0 for browser 10).

2. Shift+Alt + cursor left/right to cycle through all available browsers in the window.

RAMIGA + N - Opens either a new window or browser, depending on what your prefs are.

"duh! , i just found it...thanx! :)"

Okay, I am the dummy for this one.  I am looking at my Ibrowse Prefs window.  I have GUI/FAB Menus open.  I see two areas to the right.  The one just right has a bunch of items.  Then the next one has four items that are unexpanded.  Below this area I see "Name" "Action" "Int" but they ghosted.  I can not do anything with them.  I have tried to click on the items to see if that would unghosted the boxes, but no go.  Am I in the right place?

warrent@: go to settings, its the first menu u see :) , the "GENERAL" just tick that one time.

on the menu u should have: ;misC: close bookmarks after selection etc, and stuff like safe requester.

anyway almost at the bottom there is the thing u want :) , the "DEFAULT NEW METHOD"  , i use NEW BROWSER here now :)

btw i am not screaming :)

hope that it helps..

"go to settings, its the first menu u see :)"

Yes, I did find that.  I was just wondering about giving new browser a different keyboard combination.  Like right Amiga/B.

In old IBrowse (2.2) you can do it if add

OPEN LINK IN NEW BROWSER submenu in

Preferences / GUI / FAB menus.

(just drag & drop)

So when you select with right mouse button opening
new link in popup menu, "Open link in new browser"
will appear (besides "Open link in new window").

Hope this helps.
