How To Enable Multiple Tabs Rows in Firefox



If you're not using more than 4-5 tabs at a time in Firefox, then you can move on and disregard this article, but if you're one of those hardcore web surfers that happen to have 50 sites open at a time, sometimes even more, than it would be a great idea to have all your tabs displayed on the screen at a time too, don't you think?

As you can see above, if you want to select a tab that's out of view, you have to press a button to scroll to the right, until you find it. Not quite a time saver, in my opinion... but we'll make things right in an instant. Just sit back and watch!

- Unfortunately, to have your tabs arranged on multiple rows, you need to download and install this extension. Once you got it and it's in place, we can move on...
Installing the extension


- After restarting Firefox, open the Tools menu and left click on Tab Mix Plus Options.
Opening to the extension Options window


- In the Display>Tab Bar area, select Multi-row and enter the maximum number of rows to have in Firefox, as you can see below.

This is it
