Improved Single Row Scroll of Tab Panels

Status: New

Hello,

 

This suggestion is about an improved handling of tab panels. Let's assume there are several tab panels, but only 3-4 tabs fit in a row. Selecting 'Single Row Scroll' will show say 3.5 tab panels and the row selector. Now I'd like to access say tab panel 5: Right now this requires clicking on the row selector to show the desired tab AND then click on this tab to show the tab panel. It would be more convenient if clicking the row selector would automatically show the next tab, too.

 

Let me give an example: The desired tab is not shown in the scroll list below, so one has to click on the right arrow...

... until the tab shows up:

But still the first tab panel is displayed, so another mouse click is required:

It is not just that one more mouse click is needed, but the mouse needs to moved, too, to click on the respective tab... It would be much more convenient to simply click a few times at the same position...
