How do I turn thumbnail previews on and off.

Tabs...they look very much alike don't they, and it's easy to forget what's in each one (especially if they have the same title). We've solved this by placing a recent thumbnail image in the hover menu.

Sorry, your browser doesn't support embedded videos.

To turn the thumbnails on and off go to Settings > Groups & Apps> Tooltips > Thumbnails > Toggle ON/OFF.

The thumbnail is displayed even when an app/tab is sleeping, so there's no need to wake it to remind yourself of its contents (therefore saving time and CPU).
Hover over a sidebar group and you'll see thumbnails for the three most recently used apps, and also for any app tabs. Click on any thumbnail preview to navigate to that app.

Note - you may need to enable Advanced mode in Settings to see the above options.
