Submitted: Oct 17 2005
Updated: Dec 2 2005

Description:

Requirement: KDE 3.5

NOTE: This plugin will overwrite the Kate Tab Bar Extension included in the KDE module 'kdeaddons'. This is by intention, as the plan is to make this plugin the default for KDE 4.

The Tab Bar Extension supports:
- location: top and bottom
- styles: push buttons, flat buttons, frames
- sort by: opening order, name, URL, file extensions
- number of rows
- minimum and maximum width of tabs
- fixed tab height
- follows current document
- manual highlighting of tabs (context menu)
- text color of modified tabs
- highlight active/current tab
- highlight previous tab
- opacity of background shading (0%-100%)
- load/save (ie session) support
- synchronization of all view (if you have multiple mainwindows)
- "Remove all highlight marks" button
- icons for modified buffers and corrupted files on disk

MD5 checksum:
63d0ccc3fab14b47915b448becbef815 katetabbarextension-0.6.tar.gz

How to install:
tar xvfz katetabbarextension-0.6.tar.gz
cd katetabbarextension-0.6
./configure --prefix=`kde-config --prefix`
make
make install # as root

After this you have to enable the plugin in Kate: Settings > Configure Kate > Plugins > [x] Kate Tab Bar Extension

Changelog:

2005-12-02 version 0.6
- fixed bug: setting the location to top works now also on Kate startup

2005-10-05 version 0.5
- Rewritten for KDE 3.5.x

No entry in Settings

I compiled and installed on Kubuntu Edgy, and the tab bar appears on the bottom of the screen, but there is no corresponding entry in Settings->Configure Kate->plugins. Is there another method for accession the configuration settings?

Yes, invoke the tab bar's config dialog by clicking the small configure icon in the tabbar itself.

Very nice plugin. Thanks!

Suggestions:
1) In "bool operator< (KTinyTabButton const&, KTinyTabButton const&)", use QString::localeAwareCompare() instead of "bool QString::operator< (...)" and "bool QString::operator==(...)".
2) In the above "bool operator< (...)", in case of KTinyTabBar::Extension, if both aExt==bExt and aFile==bFile, return a.buttonID() < b.buttonID().
3) User QPtrList instead of QSortedList and get rid of the ugly "global_sortType".

Regards

maybe you are right here. I have to check again whether it still behaves as I want it to behave :)

> 2) In the above "bool operator< (...)", in case of KTinyTabBar::Extension, if both aExt==bExt and aFile==bFile, return a.buttonID() < b.buttonID().

then it sorts by using the opening order. I prefer the way it is right now, or did I miss something? :)

It's ugly, right :) I will have a look for kde4.

Currently, in the bool operator< (const KTinyTabButton& a, const KTinyTabButton& b), when sort order is "file name", and the file names are equal, the the operator returns a.buttonID() < b.buttonID(). There must be a reason for this, and I agree with this behavior. For the same reason, when sort order is "file extension", and the file names are equal (therefore the exensions are equal too), the operator should compare buttonID as well.

:) Regards

Still default

Is this Tab Bar Extension still going to be the default in KDE4?

The current Tab Bar Extension jumps from one line to another when a simple edit/save is done. I can't see a way to keep the Tar Bar Extension on its own line, rather than jumping around. I'm looking for options - thus my arrival here.

Thanks.

Clicking tab shorten

Nice addition to Kate.

Subject: Clicking Tabs shortens Main Toolbar

When I click the a tab, the "Main Toolbar (KatepartView)" loses actions. Each time I clik a Tab, another action disappears and the Toolbar gets shorter and shorter. I went from 20 to 9 actions. It seems to stop there. When I stop and start Kate the Tool Bar is restored.

I did a reset to default for the Toolbar and the actions I added were gone. But as soon as I clicked a Tab, they reappeared. I stopped and started Kate and the default Toolbar was restored. I clicked multiple Tabs on the Tab Bar Extension and all appeared okay. It is only when I add actions to the Toolbar that this strange behavior starts.

How I added:

Configure->Toolbars
Selected: Main Toolbar KatePartView

I added 3 actions:
Collapse Top Level
Expand Top Level
Highlighting

I clicked on Change Icon for each (although this didn't seem to make a difference).

That's a known issue but has nothing to do with the tabbar extension.

1. The Tab Bar Extension that was originally installed with Kate had a down arrow on the right-hand side that would expand and show all documents that were open. This was a nice feature because you could go directly to a file.

This Tab Bar Extension is missing that feature. It has two arrows on the right-hand side that scroll the tabs left and right. When you have many files open, clicking a drop-down and selecting from a list is very fast, verses scrolling through the tabs.

2. This Tab Bar Extension does not seem to remember configuration settings. I changed the Tab Location from Bottom to Top, Sort By Document Name, Min Button Width, Button Style, and Tab Highlighting. When I stop Kate and restart, these changes are lost.

True, that's a nice wish.

That works at least in KDE4 and there was a time where it also worked in KDE3. I don't know whether I'll find the time to look into the KDE3-version ever again. Let's see.

That's a shame about not fixing it for kde3 users. Even kde4.1 is not ready for public consumption. :(

It seems the problem is it doesn't properly open the katerc file for writing on exit.

If you add the following section manually to the katerc file (default ~/.kde/share/config/katerc), it loads the settings properly, but as stated will not save.

Thanks again for the extension.
