Summary

⚠ This addon extends and works only with Tree Style Tab.

This extension allows tabs that are moved using drag and drop in Tree Style Tab's sidebar to remain inactive. This is done by changing tab activation/selection from mouse down events to mouse up events which will add a small delay when selecting tabs.

Settings in the extension's option page:

  • Only affect unloaded tabs.
  • Prevent long pressed tabs from becoming active.
  • Prevent drag and drop for long pressed tabs.
  • Prevent drag and dropped tabs from becoming active.
  • Prevent custom dragged tabs from becoming active. Happens when other addons overrides Tree Style Tab's normal drag and drop. Multiple Tab Handler is an example of such an addon.
Note: Requires Tree Style Tab v2.4.19 or later.
