Shows a close button when you point at a pinned tab outside a folder, like Dia already does for tabs in a pinned folder.
Dia hides the close button on pinned tabs that aren't in a folder. This shows it when you point at the tab.
- Handy if you pin tabs and want to close them with a click.
- Skip it if you like pinned tabs that can't be closed by accident.
Open Dia → Settings → Patches and switch on Close Button on Pinned Tabs. Or run:
diatweaks enable pinnedTabCloseButtonIt's off by default. It works with tabs in the sidebar and at the top.
Minus Button on Open Pinned Tabs swaps the ✕ for a – on pinned tabs with a page open, so you can close the page and keep the tab.
What does the button do?
It closes the pinned tab and removes it, like the button on tabs in a pinned folder.
Does it change pinned tabs in a folder?
No. Dia already shows the button there.
