NON OFFICIAL FASTTRACK -- I have figured out a bit of what is not in the instructions. Here you go. The main difference with this chrome version and firefox, is that you may only be able to group your tabs based on the window you open it from -- so if you want to save a tab -- make sure not to delete the tab that you found the original link on unless you want to remake the parent tab from scratch scratch. Example. I open a search on youtube for "music" in the first tab, then instead of clicking on the videos I want to see, I right click to open it in a new tab -- then everything will be assigned as a child tucked under the first tab. This is how this works. I suppose if you save the links for each tab in some online notepad based tab via extension or a public notepad website like "s h r i b . c o m" or -- a n o t e p a d . c o m -- maybe you could use it to save your urls in a tab you want to group the links in for each section, highlight the link and use the same method as opening into a new tab. Annoying versus the firefox way of doing it but it makes it at least someone useful. Pictures looked like they were not from chrome as I only first found the ability to tuck tabs under other tabs in firefox. Better more detailed instructions would be useful if there is a way to still do this in firefox -- strangely when duplicating a tab it ends up tucked under the other but seems very confusing to organize without a guide Another way to work around it is if there is a search field or any text field in the parent page, you can paste the url into it >> highlight it >> right click >> and open the tab and then it will be tucked under the given tab.

It's almost perfect but the only issue is "Close sub-tabs" First of all there should also be an option to close just singular tab not all sub-tabs cause sometime you might just wanna close one tab. And also "Close sub-tabs" is a bit broken I guess? When I press it then it comes back to starting place from tabs that I scrolled, so I mean that I scroll somewhere away from tab that Tree Style Tab is opened with and then I press close sub-tabs and it comes back to initial tab, which is pretty annoying too. But otherwise I like the style gj
