Microsoft Internet Explorer 7

View Thumbnails of Websites in Tabs

SUMMARY: View thumbnails of websites opened in Internet Explorer 7 tabs.
 
If you have multiple websites opened in tabs inside Internet Explorer 7, it may prove time-consuming to find out what is opened in every tab.

With many tabs opened, you may not be able just to glance at the tab bar - the site titles may get truncated. While you could just click on each tab to view the web page contained therein, there is another way.

Directly to the left of the tab bar is a tab containing four squares. Click it (as shown in the screenshot below) to activate the "Quick Tabs" feature.


Activating Internet Explorer 7's "Quick Tabs" feature.

Doing so opens a new tab containing thumbnail screenshots of all opened Internet Explorer 7 tabs. Just click a screenshot to activate the desired tab.
