Please star the following issue in the Chrome issue tracker, which would make Sidewise even better.
https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=319130

Is this the right place to report the bug or ask for help? Basically, the problem is as in the description. I've quit and restart Chrome and the problem remains. I can still access the settings. I'm paranoid that everything's been lost, but that's probably not the case.

Hibernated tabs not waking up. Not on doubleclick or on menu

There is a highly useful extension call Lazy Tabs

https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/aabgbgci...

which prevents tabs from loading until you look at then. This saves memory and time when starting up chrome, especially if you have lots of tabs.

The only problem is that the lazy tabs extension blocks the sidewise extension. It will not open when clicking the button, nor automatically open at startup. If I disable Lazy Tabs, the Sidewise extension starts working again.

The question is whether the pop-up of the Sidewise sidebar uses a mechanism that is blocked by Lazy Tabs, and whether there is another way to do it.

Open (pop-up) Sidewise window on CTRL-TAB, allow navigating through tabs with CTRL-TAB / CTRL-SHIFT-TAB and close Sidewise window + switch to the tab upon releasing the keys. So that mouse is not even needed.
That was a unique and very convenient with multiple open tabs feature of Opera.

If it is also possible optionally to close altogether the tab bar in the browser itself - even better. It is not useful with many open tabs anyway and not needed when Sidewise is installed.

I'm on Ubuntu 14.04 laptop, which I use with external monitor while at work and built-in screen only at home. Sidewise *always* detects this as a single monitor, regardless of whether the external monitor is connected or not. This results in the following very annoying behavior:

When not using external monitor, Chrome will start with correct window position on the screen but after few seconds Sidewise will move the Chrome outside of the screen bounds, luckily I can do Right click > Move on the classic Gnome taskbar to drag it back.
When using external monitor, similar behavior happens, but this time I see the window on another monitor and can drag it back directly.

I don't want this moving of window at all, I'm fine with wherever I left it, please add an option to disable this feature completely.
