Manifest V3...

So its finally coming.

I have been working on it on and off.
The new coding style required is extremely unintuitive so progress is very slow.

Working on SimpleExtManager.
Not ready yet, can't say when I will put it out.
Will announce on this blog when ready.

SimpleTabOrder 0.5.16

Probably the final update concerning the V91 bug.
Implemented the timeout workaround in the bug report.

Now the tab move inconsistency is fixed too.

Luckily its a quick fix.
Bug is fixed for V92, so all other affected extensions should work again when it go stable next month.

SimpleTabOrder 0.5.15

Another bug fix release.

Went deeper into the open at further right inconsistency problem of Kyle Collins.
Not really sure is it V91 or my miss as I can't remember if it was working ok before.

First I notice the inconsistency only when the tab close option is set to default.
Found that in the code if tab close is set to default will result in saving a value as 'undefined'.
Wrapped that code in a checking if block to not do that block for tab close default.
Seems to be working right now. 

Tab Groups I'm not so sure about this.

Moving tabs, this one I'm looking into next.

SimpleTabOrder 0.5.14

A bug fix release.

Somehow the current active tab isn't captured after updating to Chrome 91.
chrome.tabs.query isn't working with mouse click on tab but is ok with ctrl+tab.
Registers mouse click on tab as dragging and refuse to work as before Chrome 91.

Anyway changed it to not query and directly get the tab from the event.
Wonder why I didn't do so before?

Seems to be working again.

Also on Opera side it seems like my past 3 submissions for SimpleExtManager were not moderated, strange.
Left a message, see how it goes.
