Far Manager does not show new tab (PanelTabs)

Question

Windows 10 (64 bit), Far Manager 3 v3.0 build 5254 x64

I download plugin PanelTabs (ver. 1.15.0.0) from official site.

Unpack archive and copy to %Far%/Pluggins folder. Restart Far. Press F11. Add current folder to tab by select "Add Tab"

But new tab is not shown:

Why?

Answer 1

Answer

The plugin adds a row of bookmarks to the FAR panels, which can be switched by mouse or keyboard. To make the tabs visible you should reduce the height of the panels by at least one line (Ctrl + Up)

Documentation

You can see the help (in Russian), by pressing F11, go to Panel tabs and press F1. I've translated the documentation here: https://superuser.com/a/1280376/274351 (with the help of Google Translate).

Example

Alternative

I usually set shortcuts to different folders and then jump to them.

• Create a folder shortcut Ctrl+Shift+0 to Ctrl+Shift+9
• Jump to a folder shortcut RightCtrl+0 to RightCtrl+9
