If i have fire fox open, then open a new window, from a link or from the file menu,i have to drag the first window out of the way to get to the other. is there a way to show the other open windows? this is also a pain with pop-ups, as i could have 20 windows open.

  • Welcome to Ask Ubuntu! I don't understand the question. "If i have fire fox open, then open a new window, from a link or from the file menu". So the new window is a Firefox window? Like, when you click a link, it opens another Firefox window? "i have to drag the first window out of the way to get to the other". This means that the second window opens up in the background, right, behind the first, original window? "is there a way to show the other open windows?". Now what does this mean? What other open windows? Firefox windows? Or all other windows in Ubuntu?

Instead of open a new window, choose open in a new Tab. That way you can have those tabs open in the same windows, and you can switch between them by just clicking on the desired Tab.

And yes you can have as may tabs open a you like.

  • You can also use the middle click to directly open new tabs. Same operation, middleclicking but on the tab, to close them. Sep 23, 2013 at 7:16

I didn’t get your question either, but you can use Alt+` (the key above Tab) to switch between windows of the same app.
