Closing Tabs and 1 more

Is there an easy(easier) way to close tabs? I know about the big X on the right side of the tab area. I get a gazillion tabs open and it can be a hassle to use the X. It would be great to be able to doubleclick the tab or middleclick the tab to close it.....thanks

also, I need to move the ue db folder and was wondering it it's anything more than just moving it and changing properties/db folder ?

Thanks again, UE rulz ....

as to closing tabs the rightmost pane of the workspace (you can even assign a shortcut to switch to it file menu->open views) lists all open views so you can select and close them from there.

as moving the database it is not outlook express so you can just copy or move the database folder (just better to do it when the program is not running) and switch to it through properties->general->change database folder, actually if you move it since there will be no database at the old location it will ask for new one on start.

Yes, you can close the tabs via the workspace, but it still means opening the workspace..then looking for the name of the newsgroup you want to close.

Having the option of being able to double click a tab to close it..means that if your in that news group and you've finished with it..you can just give it a quick double click..Also handy if youve finished with a few newsgroups in a row.....I use double clicking on tabs to close tabs in Firefox and its very useful.

Please at least consider it in future versions

you can close the current tab with ctrl+F4 apart from clicking the close button.

i'll check it again with the upgraded gui library version, in the older one the doubleclick message didn't make it and i couldn't find where to catch it.
