The "All IE Versions" button is a fabulous idea, but we need a similar button in next IETester that's customizable. I no longer support IE 5.5 and Default IE is basically redundant, so I don't really need all five tabs.

Keep on the great work.

Right,

I was thinking of improving the "All IE Versions" dialog box with checkboxes to select which IE Versions will be launched.
I wanted to launch this version quickly so it is not implemented yet, but it will come soon.

A "Close All Tabs" of some sort would be useful, too. Otherwise great work, keep it going!

Yes, good point. Will add this in a future release.

Thank you.

Two more things I find annoying:

1. I wouldn't hide the X closing button in tabs because if you want to close more of them, you have to first click it to active and then click X, resulting in sort of doubleclicking

2. The zoom thing doesn't appear to have any reset button. If you hit CTRL+0 in most browsers, it resets it.

Tab management will be improved in a future version.

I'll try to add this soon.

Hi,

On the next release the following improvements will be present :

* On the "Open All version", you will be able to choose which version to open

* A "Close All Tabs" button has been added (with keyboard shortcut)

* Zoom feature has keyboard shortcuts now to reset, increase, decrease.

Stay tuned ;-)
