Description jmalonzo 2007-06-24 13:46:29 UTC
Hi! This is pretty much similar to firefox's ability to shorten the display names hence more tabs gets displayed in the
view. At the moment, netbeans displays the full filename in the tabs and if those filenames are really long (e.g., ROR
ActiveRecord Migrations), the maximum number of tabs I'll be able to see would be around 3 to 4 in a 1400x1050
resolution. With truncated filenames, I guess ideally I would like to see around 8 tabs or more.

Cheers.
