FEATURE REQUEST: right click tab to lock/unlock

(1/2) > >>

HPBEME:
Yes, lock/unlock tab is in the tab menu, but you can only access that for the active tab.  My request is RMB on any tab, active or inactive, to toggle between lock/unlock.  In addition, eliminating the need to navigate to a specific line in the menu (and occasionally selecting the wrong item) by simply right clicking the tab is far quicker and would be a really nice, yet simple, UI enhancement.

Doing this does not conflict with current behavior
- RMB Inactive Tab: nothing happens
- RMB Active Tab: context menu with 1 item "execute (tab name)" appears. Selecting that just brings up the tab menu - which already activates automatically by simply hovering over the tab - so this context menu has zero value.

I have a feeling this is something Matt could implement in the code in a matter of minutes.

Matt:
Another option would be middle click so the right click menus could stay.

lepa:
Middle click is generally used to close tabs and also MC has implemented middle click close although it doesn't always work

Matt:
Well I'm not the biggest fan of switching right click.  Is there another way?

lepa:
Agree with rmb, not a fan. Eventhough MC doesn't use it at all here it is usually used to open context menus. Could it be something like toggling with ctrl + lmb perhaps?
