- Rated 4 out of 5by grahamperrin, 6 years agoI use a trio of extensions for pop-ups.
Focus Popup https://addons.mozilla.org/addon/focus-popup/ has a keyboard shortcut (Control-Shift-7) and can duplicate a tab into a pop-up (without history) whilst leaving the original (with history).
PopUp https://addons.mozilla.org/addon/popup/ preserves tab history when popping up, and allows me to choose the window in which a pop-up should be restored, but has no keyboard shortcut – https://github.com/aqt/webext-popup/issues/37
Popup Tab https://addons.mozilla.org/addon/popup-tab/ preserves tab history when popping up, and has a keyboard shortcut (Control-Shift-8) that works with Waterfox 56.2.7.1. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14295937, 6 years agoHas been working great for my company's internal web apps. I'm super impressed with the results.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14140469, 6 years agoDoes exactly what it says without issue -- thank you for this one!
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14020005, 7 years agoLove what this extension does. My only complaint would be the maximize button doesn't work for me.
Windows 10, Stable version of Firefox.Developer response
posted 7 years agoThank you! Unfortunately maximization is out of my hands, Firefox disables it on this type of window.
If fullscreen (hotkey F11) is not what you're looking for you'll unfortunately have to resize the window manually. - Rated 5 out of 5by maverick, 7 years agoGreat addon!
The most complete and most functional in his category.
It also gives us the closest feel of a PWA we can get!
Great Job!Developer response
posted 7 years agoThank you for your suggestions. I have replied with my thoughts to the issues you created on the github page (#12, #13), but to summarize I don't think I will be adding these features.
(Edit: I would add #2 (maximization) but cannot since it's not possible to make popups maximized) - Rated 5 out of 5by SuperPutte, 7 years agoLike it a lot, but miss one thing:
Can you add an option to define width and height of the popup-window in the settings?
If possible also site-specific.
Edit: The author to this addon listened to my ideas, and did everything with glanze. I'm pleased & impressed - changed to 5 STARS of course!Developer response
posted 7 years agoThanks for the suggestion, I'll add settings for that.
(Edit: I've uploaded the new version now (1.3.1), it will be visible once it has been approved)
With my current way of handling settings it's not feasible to add a list of settings, i.e. site specific. I'll look into re-designing that part to make it possible but it may take some time.
(Edit: Now available in version 1.3.2)
It's also possible to add x/y position options but during my initial tests they were always created in the middle of the screen, so this might be added in a later release. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13370471, 7 years ago

posted 7 years agoI have been unable to reproduce this problem, any additional information you can share is greatly appreciated: Does it happen on all websites or some? Which firefox version and operative system are you using?
Your previous review was for version 1.1, can I assume you did not experience this problem with that version? Can you try one of the older versions of this add-on and see if the problem disappears? To do this, press "See all versions" on the add-on page (note that this will reset settings you've changed for this add-on). - Rated 5 out of 5by Schnouki, 7 years agoWorks exactly as expected. I can now open Netflix in another window with minimal UI, which is exactly what I wanted.
Thanks a lot for this extension! - Rated 5 out of 5by crazyjackal, 7 years agoThis works really well.
I use auto-hotkey to assign Pause Break to toggle the active window as Always on Top.
PAUSE:: Winset, Alwaysontop, , A - Rated 4 out of 5by fla_hotrod, 7 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by scsc, 7 years ago// Previous version:
Provides no way to return the tab back to original Firefox window (it can be only found after closing via Recently closed windows view, which opens reduced PopUp again).
Also I hope Firefox adds the API support for Always on top soon :(
// Edit:
The feature to return the tab back to original was added by developer! :)Developer response
posted 7 years agoThank you for using my add-on.
I expect to be releasing a new version next week where restoring to a regular window is possible; I'm currently evaluating the usability of a few different ways.
