Clutter Free – v. 2018.102.5.0

~ Adi

Minor updates

  1. The weekly stats notification now automatically disappears after a short delay. Don’t need to explicitly dismiss it.
  2. In quick switch popup, if only one tab is visible in filtered list, pressing ‘enter‘ switches to the tab. Don’t need to select the tab in the list before switching.
  3. In quick switch popup, internal chrome and extension tabs are shown as ‘chrome://abc‘ instead of just ‘abc‘.

Introducing: Direct switch – fast switching to open tabs from links

~ Adi

Direct Switch

Lightening quick switch to previously open tabs.

Direct switch links are highlighted with the Clutter Free mark ( cf16 ) next to them1.

Clicking on a highlighted link will directly switch to the open tab. No delays, no web response time, no additional web data usage.

Your other settings, like ‘Refresh original tab‘ will also be respected when direct switching. Links that aren’t detected by direct switch automatically, e.g. URL shorteners, Twitter, and Facebook links, will still be detected same as before, but without the speed of direct switch

Other Updates

  1. Improved the options page, with 2 key sections – General settings, and Appearance. Defaults have also changed, and some little-used settings hidden/removed.
  2. Added automatic extension updates. The extension now updates without having to wait for a browser or computer restart.
  3. New, greyed-out icon cf-disabled16 to indicate when the extension is switched off.
  4. If “Don’t move” is selected under Options > Advanced Settings > Duplicate tab position, a notification is shown when a duplicate link is opened in background. Link has options to switch to the original tab, and to go to settings.

Bug fixes

  1. When a duplicate was opened in a new window, sometimes both the original and the duplicate tab were closed.
  2. Original pages were always refreshed, even when Refresh original page setting was off.
  3. Temporarily removed Ignore Hash setting. It is still available for anyone who has it enabled.

Clutter Free - Version 2017.0525.3.16

  1.  If you don’t want the logo appearing next to links, it can be disabled under Settings > Appearance > Highlight duplicate links. ↩
  2. Default behaviour is to move the tab to the location where duplicate would have appeared – usually the tab after the one where the link was opened from. This behaviour can be changed from Options > Advanced Settings > Duplicate tab position. ↩

Clutter Free – v. 2017.0519.2.22

Key update: Resolved the bug that occasionally caused pages to continuously reload, due to automatic redirects (e.g. links on Twitter and Facebook).

Other Updates:

  1. Reduced the frequency of weekly Duplicates closed count notification.
    • Notification will only show if more than a minimum number of duplicates were closed during the week,
    • For donors, the notification is no longer sticky. It auto-disappears after a few seconds
    • Coming soon: Donors can disable the notification entirely.
  2. Bug Fix: Remove all duplicate tabs link in popup was adding new tabs! This is now resolved. My apologies to everyone for this.
  3. Aside: Updated the minimum supported Chrome version to 49
    • I needed some functionality that isn’t available in versions prior to v.49,
    • Current Chrome version is 58, and v.49 was released in March 2016 – so, hoping most users won’t be affected.
