Window naming will let you name the whole window, which, is a group of tabs in a way.
You can group a few tabs in a window and give them a name. This seems to be an extension of the existing Tab Groups feature. How will this look like? We’ve got some screenshots for you, courtesy of the feature request bug: Chrome Window Naming Conclusion “Window Naming: Whether the window naming UI is enabled.” Google has added a new flag to Chrome to test this feature: That makes it keep moving around in the alphabetical Window menu list, making it really hard to click on one even after I’ve figured out which I want.” The Flag Two more are named “Google Classroom”.įurthermore, one more window keeps changing its name once a second, because it’s on a Gmail tab with an open chat mole and it has an unread chat message. Three of them are currently named “ – Calendar”.
#Why does google chrome open 2 tabs windows#
I have six windows open for three different profiles. “It would be great to be able to assign a sticky name to each window, so their titles in the menu and dock are identifiable and don’t change depending on which tab has focus. The plan is to let you name each window to help you easily identify it. You won’t get confused even if Google Chrome shows the current tab in focus. You will know that all your school related tabs are on that window. Now, consider you name your Google Classroom and Gmail window as “School”. The second will be considered the “Google Classroom Window” because that’s the tab in focus. If you browse through ALT + TAB, Chrome will show you the Google Classroom tab because it is in focus. What if you ALT + TAB while on Facebook (on the other window) to come to Google Docs. Now, assume that on your first window, you are currently on Google Classroom tab. On another window, you have Facebook, Instagram and YouTube. You have Gmail, Google Classroom and Google Docs open on one Chrome window.
