    Hi,

    With a previous version I was able to shuffle/rearrange open tabs in a particular sequence. Now this functionality is no longer available. Seems something has changed in the last week or so. I'm doing tests with multiple hosts chained in a sequence, each one is represented by it's own tab in my browser. The ability to arrange the tabs as needed was helpful in keeping a mental image of where each host was in a chain. Other than that, I really like the ColorfulTabs :)

    Firefox 3.0.8
    ColorfulTabs 3.9.1
    Windows XP Pro SP3

    Thanks!

    Steps:
    1. Open browser
    2. Open at least three tabs (let's call 'em tab1, tab2, tab3)
    3. Left-click and hold tab3 and drag it to the left between tab1 and tab2
    4. Release the mouse button
    5. Expected result - new arrangement: tab1, tab3, tab2
    6. Actual result - no change: tab1, tab2, tab3

    Thanks,

    please create a new Firefox profile and see if you are able to replicate the problem. I'm not.

    Here's something interesting that just happened. I've performed an unrelated windows update requiring a reboot. When it came back I started Firefox and once again I'm able to rearrange the tabs. Perhaps something kept the profile in a locked state until I rebooted. Seems restarting the browser was not sufficient. Thanks for all of your help and suggestions.

    Regards,
