#4185 new defect

Number of tabs

Description

Build: os11

In Browse you can add as many tabs as you want. After a while you get some arrows that allows you to scroll through the list. With touch those are hard to trigger. Furthermore I wonder if opening so many tabs is beneficial to the user.

One option would be to limit the number of tabs you can do. If n is reached the add-tab button could be made insensitive. n should be calculated on the screen width (taking into account rotation of the screen).

Setting the arrows color to white looks better. Added another patch and screenshot.

Yes, white looks much better than black. I take it that the triangle shape is not easily modified to match our Sugary navigation svg's (as used in the bottom tray areas of Record and Browse)?

Hey Gary, thanks for taking a look. You are right about the arrows shape. We need a custom theme for that, see #4090 . Hopefully we will do that soon, then all our arrows will get the original shape.
