Tabs:

Tabs work in a manner not dissimilar to tabs from other web browsers. They contain full configurations within Igloo Web, rather than just an individual webpage.

Tabsets, then, are collections of tabs that can be saved out into a single tabset file, and imported as a group.

New tab: Creates a new basic configuration from . These can be either, the predefined default tab, an exported Tab (.ivwt) file, a saved bookmark, or a template.

LoadImport tab: Load a previously saved configuration.

Save: Saves current configuration

Overwrites the previously active save file.

These mostly affect the end display

Number of Browsers: Sets the number browser windows on the Igloo Web canvas. By default each browser has the same relative width.

App Window: Settings related to the application window. A maximum width is set to prevent the window “spilling” between Windows displays. This has no impact on the output to the Warper

Active Browser highlight & Border width: Seen in the screenshot above, adds a green highlight to the currently active browser. Changing the webpage will only affect the active browser. Show on Output will pass this green border through to the Warper, if ticked.

Browser WidthsDimensions: Adjusts the relative widths and heights of the browsers, and optionally add a vertical offset to the browsers.

Info

If 2 browsers have the same relative width, they will be the same size. If browser 1 has a relative width of twice browser 2, browser 1 will be twice as wide as browser 2.
