Supertabs

In a typical web browser, you can open multiple web pages in one window, and then switch between web pages by selecting tabs.

In the Here™ browser, you can open multiple web pages and arrange them in columns or rows so that you can view their contents simultaneously.

A collection of tabs is called a supertab.

Ways that you can work with supertabs include the following:

  • Add or remove app or website tabs, arrange them in any combination of rows and columns, and resize them to suit your needs and your workflow.

  • If the apps or websites that the tabs display are configured to support Signals, you can change or select data in one tab and the data is updated across all tabs in the same supertab. For example, you might have apps for Customer Account Details, Customer History, and Current Order, each of which contains a Customer ID. If you choose a different customer, all the apps update to display the new customer's data.

  • Save the supertab, and find it in a list of saved supertabs to reopen later. In addition to preserving the tab content, saved supertabs keep the arrangement of tabs as it was when you saved it.

  • Drag a tab from one supertab into a different supertab, or make it a top-level tab by itself.

  • Drag a tab onto another tab, to create a new supertab containing the two tabs.

If you are an admin with the appropriate permissions, you can publish a supertab for users to work with. Publishing a supertab does not make it immediately available to others. Instead, an admin manages access to the supertab and then activates it for the assigned users. See Manage supertabs.
