Tab Groups Disappear after Save/Close

Mitch

I was excited to receive the new Tab Groups feature and am now disappointed that it's not working and I've 'lost' dozens of tabs.

Here's what I did: I created several groups by right-clicking and added tabs to each of the groups. Since it appears that only way to collapse a group is to "save and close group," I closed each group. Now they are all gone. When I right-click to create a new group or "add tab to group," the closed groups are nowhere to be found. Plus, I do not see a "list all tabs icon" on my toolbar to reopen the grouped tabs, which is what [article] says should happen.

Suggestions for making this work?

That is a very impressive catch!

The existing code contained a problematic line as you suspected:

  1. alltabs-button,
root:not([customizing]) #TabsToolbar #new-tab-button,
  1. tabbrowser-arrowscrollbox > spacer,

.tabbrowser-tab::after{ display: none !important }

Upon investigation, I found a new CSS code at https://github.com/MrOtherGuy/firefox-csshacks/tree/master/chrome/multi-row_tabs.css which restores the All Tabs button functionality.

Once I installed the new CSS code, the All Tabs button returned, along with all of the Tab Group tabs I had previously created.

Thanks for your help! Problem solved. I am in your debt.

Sadly Firefox didn't give me the "helpful hint" as to where to click to get my closed tab group back. I do have the "All Tabs" arrow button but would never have known what it was for. Seems like the right answer is to add "Save Group" to the menu choices in addition to the "Save and Close" option!! Should be easy to implement and the intuitive thing to do.

Although, after the last group is closed, that would be gone, too. Perhaps the right-click context menu for any open tab -- already kind of long, but... -- would be a good place for it?
