Extension summary

Adds shortcut keys to move the current tab or a group of selected tabs around the tab bar.

This is a variant of the Move Tab Hotkeys extension (https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/move-tab-hotkeys/paafmjjgeiociknojggclhkbkaffjgoe). This adds additional commands for moving the tab to the first or last position on the Tab bar to work around Chrome's limitation of 4 keyboard commands per extension.

The following hotkeys are provided:

  • Alt+Shift+NumPad-0 (with NumLock on): Move tab to the start of the tab bar
  • Alt+Shift+NumPad-0 (with NumLock off): Move tab to the start of the tab bar
  • Alt+Shift+NumPad-9 (with NumLock on): Move tab to the end of the tab bar
  • Alt+Shift+NumPad-9 (with NumLock off): Move tab to the end of the tab bar

These keys can be changed in Chrome's extensions keyboard shortcuts page.

Multi-Selected Tabs: If you select multiple tabs at once, you can move them as a group. This can be turned off on the Options page if you prefer to only move the current tab even when others are selected.
