Opening in searched and selected Containers

[svrublevskaya-sc]

Overview

When the number of containers a user has is too large, the user may need to open the active tab not in all existing containers, but only in individually selected ones.

The idea is to allow the user to select containers (groups of containers) in which to open the active tab.

Implementation details

Clicking on the extension icon open a popup that contains:

• link 'Open in available containers'. By clicking on this link, the current tab opens in all existing containers.
• button 'Select containers from the list', by clicking on which the following settings are shown:
  • an input field [filter containers by name_____] that filters containers by name from the entire available list
  • a list of checkboxes with all existing containers
  • button 'Open in selected container', becomes active when at least one container from the list is selected. By clicking on this button, the popup closes and the current tab opens in the selected containers.
• section 'Open in available presets' (displays only if user has Containers Group presets (Issue Opening of Containers Group presets #9)), displays list of links 'Preset name'. Clicking on this link, the popup closes and the current tab opens in the containers from chosen preset
