Do not automatically scroll Tabs in the Edit Window

Allardl · December 23, 2025, 2:41pm

When editing an Item which is Series, the Edit Window with the tabs (Main, Edition, etc ,…) is not large enought to display all the tabs at once (also I’m using an 1920x1080 screen). The display of the Tab Episodes makes all the Tabs scroll to the right when I edit for example Personal Data. And afterwards If I want to go back to the Tab Main, I need to use the Arrows first (very confusing). As I never use the Links Tab, I would prefer the Tabs on top not to scroll automatically. If I want to go to the Links Tab, I could then always use the right arrow.

Here are 2 examples, the first beeing a Series with the Main Tab not displayed.

I’m afraid the scrolling is here to stay, as we have found that if we don’t do this, people miss out on the tabs on the right.

That said, I do have a request from here active right now to make the edit screen just a bit wider for larger screens anyway, so there’s that

Thank you for adjusting the edit windows dimensions. I must confess that it took me a good 15 minutes to detect that I could scroll to the left by using the arrows on the right! I first thought this was a bug, so I simply closedcthe window and opened it again to find my Main Tab.

I support that suggestion to make the edit screen wider for larger screens!

We’ve just made this wish come true as well. Can you check it out, and see if you like it?

So scrolling still happens, it just doesn’t do it automatically.

(and the wishes for wider edit screen still stand, but that is a much bigger project if we decide to do it)

Great, this one really simplifies my life I found out that while editing I’m switching most of the time between the Main Tab (because of the Genre field) and the Personal Tab (for obvious reasons). And scrolling to the Links Tab is now quite intuitive with the right arrow located on the right side. A great many thanks for this one.
