TST Bookmarks Subpanel

Provides a bookmarks subpanel for Tree Style Tab's sidebar.

TST Bookmarks Subpanel - Bookmarks Manager for Tree Style Tab Addon

TST Bookmarks Subpanel is a specialized Firefox add-on that creates a clone of the Firefox's bookmarks sidebar panel for the Tree Style Tab's subpanel. Due to certain security reasons or limitations of the WebExtensions API, users can't open non-regular URLs or drag anything to the bookmarks subpanel from anywhere except tabs in TST's sidebar. All bookmarks are displayed with the same icon.

Add-on summary

Analyze keywords

Tree Style Tab addon is now a sidebar panel, so you cannot use other sidebar panels in parallel, e.g. bookmarks. (See also the bug 1328776 - Provide ability to show multiple sidebar contents parallelly) So TST 3.1.0 and later has the SubPanel API to embed arbitrary contents below tabs as a "subpanel" from other helper addons.

This addon is a clone of Firefox's bookmarks sidebar panel for TST's subpanel. Due to security reasons or limitations of WebExtensions API itself, there are some restrictions:

  • Impossible to open non-regular URLs like about:config. (This is a restriction of WebExtensions API.)
  • Impossible to drag anything to the bookmarks subpanel from elsewhere (except tabs in TST's sidebar).
  • All bookmarks are shown with same icon. (This is a restriction of WebExtensions API. See also: the bug 1315616 - Give extensions access to cached favicon URLs)

User reviews
Please - add ability to change F2 hotkey to user defined hotkey. Developing in cloud IDE need that hotkey for their options.
