Tab group - Reload [enhancement]

[ccfs]

This is a recap of tablacus/TablacusExplorer#530

Details:

(A) TE will remember the XML file path which a group is loaded from / saved to.
(B) When a user saves a group, the remembered path is the default.
(C) New context menu option "Reload":

• enabled if there is a remembered path; disabled otherwise.
• when chosen:

1. Do an existence check of the XML file. If the file does not exist, abort and prompt the user.
2. Wipe out the group
3. Load the group from the XML file

I think that the Reload option will be convenient to users.

Hello, I agree with this function. I would even like the menu to "save", "load", "reload", etc. to be accessible. via a drop-down menu, rather than right-clicking on the tab. Hopefully it will be added in the near future. Greetings!

"Tab groups button" add-on lets you choose a group from a drop-down menu. However, you still have to right-click to access the functions. This is rather clumsy. I suggest to re-arrange the menu as follows:

Current group ►
Each other group ►
(separator)
New tab
Load

► denotes a sub-menu:
Rename
Color
Lock
(separator)
Close tab
Close other tabs
(separator)
Reload
Save
Copy

I agree CCF, the "tab group" button should be arranged with dropdown menu and submenu because that gives it agility.
On the other hand, in the "tab group" bar, in each tab there should be a button of the type "v" to display the submenu with all the options that you mention, such as rename, color, load, reload, etc.
