jkdoyle Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 It would be really cool to have a 'Recently Closed' list option like is available in many browsers. There are times I accidentally close a tab and wish that I could easily restore it. Maybe such a thing already exists, and I'm unaware of it? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fabian Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 (edited) For example in Safari if you force touch on you get a list with older tabs you recently closed. Something similar would be great. I guess it is the same list as jkdoyle showed. And there is a shortcut too. Edited March 17, 2022 by Fabian 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlm Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 Or at least the ability to reopen the last tab closed. Especially in the first couple of years with Accordance, CMD-W sometimes closed something different from what I expected. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the tip! Also, I agree that it's a great idea for Accordance, and will talk to our developers about it. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And as I requested on I would love to have more gesture features in Accordance which are "normal" on the Mac. May with the possibilities to turn them on and off. But I would love to have it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've been talking internally about adding gestures as well as enhanced mouse support. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A side note. For me it is not understandable why there is no pinch to zoom (to increase the font) in Mac Mail. In Win XP it was simple, hold the cursor over the email and turn the mouse wheel, by holding the alt key. In some areas macOS is over 20 years behind. Simple things that XP was able, are still not able on Monterey.🙄 This was also a normal behavior in IE 5.5, which I preferred much over 6. There are more examples, but this would expand the place here. I'm not a digital native, but I'm so often in the internet, that I miss in other applications the feature of the web browsers.

Mark Allison Posted March 21, 2022 Share Posted March 21, 2022 BTW, it may be a little hidden, but you can press-and-hold the Add Tab button (has the "+" sign on it) and open any recently-opened modules using the "Recent Modules" option at the top of the list.

Yes, but the old search history is then gone. You open a new instance, not the old one. On 3/18/2022 at 2:27 PM, Fabian said: With the search history! This is the big difference.

I often close the Research, for space, and then I have to type the same again as a new opened Research tab lost the history.

There have been many times I've wanted to redo a search but I'd already closed a tab. I'll add this as an internal feature request. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkdoyle Posted March 21, 2022 Author Share Posted March 21, 2022 It is so easy to accidentally close a tab. Is there a warning option in settings like 'Display warning before closing tabs?' That might also be helpful. I know it may be bothersome to some users, but accidentally closing a tab that has several text and tool panes with a good search history is always a 'What did I just do?' moment. 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every time you close a tab you'll see a warning dialog. It can get pretty tedious. We've all had the experience of closing a tab and losing our search history. I think having a persistent history when reopening a tab is a great idea, and I've submitted the request internally. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dustin Battles Posted March 22, 2022 Share Posted March 22, 2022 Yes! That would be great. I literally asked Accordance to make this feature available around 2008 and I was told "Accordance isn't like browsers" and to stop thinking they should be like that On 3/20/2022 at 7:05 AM, Mark Allison said: Also, I agree that it's a great idea for Accordance, and will talk to our developers about it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
