by sangel, 7 years agoI discovered the minimap concept in sublimetext and wanted one in my browser. Very useful for long pages, and more practical than the classic scrollbar!

- Rated 5 out of 5by Kevin M, 4 months agoThis is an excellent and frankly needed extension, something that would ideally be part of FireFox by default, given the era of ultrawide displays, websites that don't use them, and tiny scrollbars. I'm tired of trying to grab a little scrollbar to fly down a website to a reviews section or something similar, especially when Visual Studio Code's minimap scrollbar is so efficient and similar in its utility!
The only thing I can think to change with this extension would be to respect the light/dark theme choices of the browser. Being on a dark website and having a bright white minimap bar off to the right is a bit jarring.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15212316, 5 years agoThis addon is pretty awesome. I was looking for something like this so I could get an overview of websites, similar to a code overview in VS Code or Sublime Text.

- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 13303729, 6 years agoGood app, but I remember it used to work on previous Firefox versions <57. Im using last 56. Or was it a different app? would it be possible to provide an older version? Thank you.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Xi, 6 years agoGreat addon, but seems does not work with lazy load (scroll down then show more content) sites, hope can improve it.

- Rated 5 out of 5by fitojb, 7 years agoThis is an awesome idea! After much using minimaps in e.g. Visual Studio Code, I’m glad that those little “developer-oriented” gadgets are finding their way to other general-purpose software. Vivan los add-ons!
- Rated 5 out of 5by aviva24, 7 years agoA useful addition for long web pages. It's great that he allows you to navigate (jump) on the web page.
Bugs:
1) Оn the forums: Minimap not always updated when opening/closing the spoilers.
2) On the livejornal: after closing the 'cut', very occasionally the browser some time not responding.
3) When you resize the sidebar, the selection of the location on the web page doesn't react to it immediately.
I would like:
1) Don't update Minimap when hover over the link/cut. Only after clicking.
2) Make a button on the toolbar for quick turn on/off the display Minimap.Developer response
posted 7 years agoHi, Thanks for your review. I will look into those bugs and suggestions. Not sure about the rest yet but I think I can fix the resize issue and add the toolbar button easily.
Edit: the resize issue should be fixed now.
