Description simon_gc 2015-04-16 01:32:11 UTC 
The "Usages" window has left and right buttons to traverse the results tabs. It would be useful to have a dropdown box of all results tabs when there are enough tabs open at once that some tabs disappear off to the left.

This would be similar to the behaviour of the editor window. The editor window has left-right selectors and a dropdown box of all tabs.

In general all windows that might contain enough tabs so that some may be displaced from view should provide a dropdown box (or similar) so that hidden tabs can be located without having to repeatedly step through the tabs using the left-right selectors.
