====================================================
On thing I miss is the ability to scroll through the tabs (notebooks) by using the mouse wheel.
====================================================

I just tried this :

- Left click on a tab, dont release the button
- In the same time, use Left / Right arrow keyboard keys

Better than clicking the little black arrows !

I suggest using Ctrl+Tab and Ctrl+Shift+Tab instead, because it also jumps from the last to the first tab if you move righ through the tabs and vice versa.

@jens & @earlgrey:

Thank you for the tips. Actually, I already knew Ctrl+Tab and Ctrl+Shift+Tab, but this is slightly different from what I want. By using this shortcuts we actually jump from one tab to the other.

What I wanted is something that I've seen in other editors (maybe notepad++, but I'm not sure here), which is just positioning the mouse into the tab area and using the wheel to make the tabs scroll, with out changing the focus from the actual tab, i.e. without jumping. Then, if wished, I could just click on the tab I want to go to...

[edit]
It also doesn't work on notepad++... so it must have been some other not-opensource software, most probabily Understand (http://www.scitools.com/)

@morten:

Please, please, please, post the patch... :-)

earlgrey:
Sounds like it would cool to have something like this, instead of notebook tabs :

earlgrey: Why do you think so? To me it looks like it will waste to much vertical space.

By the way there is the open files plugin, which uses a list control to switch files. It could be useful for someone...

@oBFusCATed:

- I agree, waste of vertical space...
- I already use the Open Files Plugin, just thought the scrolling would be a neat feature, but it doesn't block my workflow... :-)
