ShareThisA quick note to share a nice little improvement that just landed to Firefox 3 development code (a.k.a the trunk): Tab scrolling has got smoother.
Instead of the rough tab by tab stepping, tabs now slide in a continuous soft movement whenever you scroll them with the mouse wheel, add a new one or change to a different tab beyond the current visible section.
Click the small Flash animation below for a quick look.

I use the trunk, and just so you know its a lot smoother than the video seems to make it. :)
If anyone wants to turn it off, set toolkit.scrollbox.smoothScroll to false in about:config and restart Firefox.

Thank’s for the trick !
Looks good, but I can’t help but think that I like how it is in Firefox 2. It seems to me that takes up processor power for something really…. unneeded.
Mike, thanks for the tip! I guess some people may want to turn it off like Patrick mentioned.

[...] En las pestañas, han cuidado un poco más el “scroll” lateral. Cuando tenemos muchas páginas abiertas en distintas pestañas (es decir, como sub-ventanas dentro de una misma ventana del navegador), podemos movernos por ellas con la rueda del ratón, como en las versiones anteriores. La diferencia es que el desplazamiento es más gradual y elegante, como puedes ver en el vÃdeo demostrativo de este enlace. [...]

YAWN…..
Cut the crap Mozilla. Make the scroll wheel switch to the next/previous tab, like most Operating Systems today do, NOT scrolling the whole tab bar. I’m sure a lot of people would love this and would better integrate into any OS.
[...] Tabs now scroll smoothly, and, new in Beta 3, you can sort of duplicate tabs when you press Ctrl while dragging a tab. A similar feature allows to drag a tab to another window. It’s not actual duplication or moving though, since in both cases a new navigation occurs and the original tab history is not preserved, but still a helpful addition I hope to see perfected in the next version.

Excellent! Thank for the trick
How could anyone possibly consider this a desirable feature? It’s bloody awful and annoying.
I hate this too. But I would love to see the bugzilla issue to get some idea what they were thinking.

Thanks!
Ack! I hate this. How do get the three rows of tabes back. I hate this side-to-side scrolling, it slows me down.
Anyone know how to disable this smooth tab scroll in Firefox3?
Mik, look at comments #2 on this post.
Looks very nice! Going to try the latest trunk out soon, not looked at it for a while.
