gusenov / copy-tab-info-extension Goto Github PK

Hello,

First I would like to say that I find Copy Tab Info quite useful and powerful. Yet I think that the pop-up window of the extension can be improved. I suppose that you may consider replacing the 3 sub-menus:

• Active tab in current window:
• All tabs in current window:
• All tabs in all windows:

with a single menu which has buttons for current tab, all tabs in current window and all tabs in all windows, something like this:

• Copy title as string - Copy all tabs - Copy all windows
• Copy URL as string - Copy all tabs - Copy all windows
• Copy link as HTML - Copy all tabs - Copy all windows
• Copy link as HTML bulleted list - Copy all tabs - Copy all windows
• Copy link as HTML numbered list - Copy all tabs - Copy all windows
• Copy link as Markdown - Copy all tabs - Copy all windows
• Copy link as Markdown bulleted list - Copy all tabs - Copy all windows
• Copy link as Markdown numbered list - Copy all tabs - Copy all windows
• Copy link as RedNotebook - Copy all tabs - Copy all windows

To illustrate what I mean below I will show a screen shot of a similar extension- Copy Cat (Chrome Web Store, GitHub):

If Copy Tab Info uses a single menu with 3 buttons for every copy mode vertical space will be gained and the pop-up window would look uncluttered and generally better.

You may also change the text of these copy modes as follows:

• Copy link as Markdown ordered list -> Copy link as Markdown numbered list

• Copy link as Markdown unordered list -> Copy link as Markdown bulleted list

• Copy link as HTML ordered list -> Copy link as Markdown numbered list

• Copy link as HTML unordered list -> Copy link as Markdown bulleted list

I think that if you replace ordered with numbered and unordered with bulleted it would look more natural.

I will suggest that you add a new copy mode:

• Copy title and URL as string

Which would look like this:

Copy Tab Info - Chrome Web Store

I would also like to suggest that you add support for BBCode copy mode which would be useful to those who post at forums which use BBCode.

BBCode uses this tag for Link (named):

url={url}]{text}[/url]

A couple of useful BBCode links:

• BBCode tags reference
• BBCode guide

A couple of examples of BBCode:

• GitHub - [url=https://github.com/]GitHub[/url]
• DuckDuckGo - [url=https://duckduckgo.com/]DuckDuckGo — Privacy, simplified.[/url]

If you add support for Copy title and URL as string and for Copy link as BBCode I would suggest the following order:

• Copy title as string - Copy all tabs - Copy all windows
• Copy URL as string - Copy all tabs - Copy all windows
• Copy title and URL as string - Copy all tabs - Copy all windows
• Copy link as HTML - Copy all tabs - Copy all windows
• Copy link as HTML bulleted list - Copy all tabs - Copy all windows
• Copy link as HTML numbered list - Copy all tabs - Copy all windows
• Copy link as Markdown - Copy all tabs - Copy all windows
• Copy link as Markdown bulleted list - Copy all tabs - Copy all windows
• Copy link as Markdown numbered list - Copy all tabs - Copy all windows
• Copy link as BBCode - Copy all tabs - Copy all windows
• Copy link as RedNotebook - Copy all tabs - Copy all windows

I think that a single copy menu with 3 buttons for current tab, all tabs and all windows would look prettier, neater and tidier.

Regards
