Document Tabs

Document Tabs

Jarte's document tabs allow you to open multiple documents by providing a separate tab for each document. Each tab displays the document's file name, or is blank for new documents. Simply click on any tab to switch to the desired document. Switching between tabs can be done without clicking by turning on option Clickless Tabs.

The tabs can be reordered by drag-and-dropping individual tabs to the desired position. Tabs can be closed by either clicking the active tab's Close button, or by double clicking the tab. The active tab's Close button can be made "clickless" by turning on option option Clickless Tab Close Button.

Document Tabs Menu

The Document Tabs Menu provides an alternate means of accessing documents when more than one document is open. The menu lists all open documents. The current document in the menu list is displayed in bold. Selecting a document from the list directs Jarte to switch to that document.

Navigating Tabs

The Manage Tabs submenu includes a number of functions used to navigate between tabs and reorder tabs. These can be especially useful when working with a large number of tabs.

Copy to Clipboard

The Manage Tabs submenu provides functions that copy the file name of active tab to the Windows clipboard:

Copy File Name - Copies the file name of the current document to the clipboard (e.g., copies "My To Do List.doc" to the clipboard if the current document is "C:\My Documents\My To Do List.doc").

Copy Folder Path - Copies the folder path of the current document to the clipboard (e.g., copies "C:\My Documents" to the clipboard if the current document is "C:\My Documents\My To Do List.doc").

Copy Full File Path - Copies the entire file path of the current document to the clipboard (e.g., copies "C:\My Documents\My To Do List.doc" to the clipboard if that is the path of the current document).

Windows Utilities

The Manage Tabs submenu provides shortcuts to the following Windows utilities:

Windows Explorer - Opens a Windows Explorer window positioned on the folder that contains the current document.

Command Prompt - Opens a Windows command prompt window positioned on the folder that contains the current document.

Options

The Manage Tabs submenu provides the following options:

Large Tabs - Increases the size and font of the document tabs to make them easier to read. This option is in effect by default, and can not be turned off, if the current Windows settings are set to use a large font for windows and controls.

Close Tab on Double Click - Controls whether document tabs can be closed with a double mouse click.

Show Tab Close Button - Controls whether the Close button is displayed on the current tab.
