Extension summary

Version 4.2, 4.3: -Bug fixes, fixed auto add cc/bcc.

Version 4.1: -Bug fixes, Enabled compose tab controller.

By default, Gmail doesn't allow dragging mails outside the opened window, so you'll not be able to download your mails or transfer them as attachment to another browser window or tab, unless you download them manually from mail menu.

Also, you can't drag an attachment from any opened mail and drop it into the compose window as attachment, the same when you need to transfer this attachment to another account opened in another browser window.

By using this extension, you'll be able to drag attachments directly to any opened compose window, you'll notice a download mail button which is draggable to your file system, or to compose window, or even to another browser tab, you'll get another button which will move the attachment section to top.

To make it easy for you to reply or forward mails, this extension adds action buttons and moves the inline compose view to top.

A new tab bar will change the look of Gmail and will allow composing mails in new tabs inside the same window, or add mails as chrome like bookmark tab.

Great job designing such a seamless & super helpful extension. Thank you so much!

Almost perfect - Scroll wheel doesn't work with Gmail anymore. Only way to scroll is with arrow buttons. Other than that, this is a great extension. Inability to scroll does discourage me from using it... Will there be a fix? October 3, 2024: It looks like scroll wheel has been fixed. Love this extension! It works really well. No issues....!

Hi Ahmed, For me seemingly the Auto BCC and CC does not work - Could this be due to using Gsuite Business gmail? Also - Is there a way to bypass the attachments function as desired? I often would like to drag images inline with text in the email and this feature forces it to not be included in the email. Thanks very much - great extension. K
