Similar extensions call this speed dial. In\nmost cases they do not use bookmarks and/or require you to manually tweak\nsettings to change the layout of the thumbnails.\n\nBy default, Bookmark Dial arranges and sizes (up to a maximum size) the\nthumbnails to be as big as possible while covering as much space as possible.\nAs a bookmark folder is used, sync comes with your browser and you can use the\nusual keyboard shortcuts, menu entries and buttons for bookmark handling to\nadd, edit and delete dial items. You can drag and drop thumbnails to change the\norder.\n\nThumbnails are generated from a snapshot of the visible area of a bookmarked\nwebpage. If a bookmark has no thumbnail yet, a snapshot is taken automatically\nwhen the bookmark is opened in the currently active tab or if it is loaded in a\nbackground tab and the tab becomes active. To ensure the best result, the\ngeneration starts when the page has completed loading. There is also a button\nin the popup opened from the toolbar icon that allows you to create a new\nsnapshot (disabled for URLs that do not belong to bookmarks from the configured\nfolder). The latter allows you to capture the part of a webpage that you want\nas you can scroll and resize the window before taking the snapshot.\n\nGetting Started\n---------------\n\nConfigure the bookmark folder and check available settings in the popup opened\nfrom the toolbar icon or from the extension page in your browser's extension\nmanager. Open a new tab.\n\nCustomisation\n-------------\n\nYou can set a background colour and/or image (including sizing) in the\npreferences. There is also a text field to provide custom CSS.\n\nKnown Issues\n------------\n\n - if a bookmark redirects to another page, thumbnail generation will fail as\n the URL of the bookmark will not match the page in the currently active tab\n - color chooser and file chooser close the popup - to change settings using\n them, go to the extension page in your browser's extension manager\n - Firefox:\n - the location bar is not cleared when a new tab is opened - this should be\n fixed in Firefox 57\n (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1372996)\n - compatibility issues with New Tab Override extension (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/new-tab-override/)\n - special URLs like about: chrome: file: etc can cause problems - thumbnail\n generation might fail or bookmarks won't open - due to limitations in the\n webextension API\n\nFeedback\n--------\n\nYou can report bugs or make feature requests on\nhttps://github.com/sblask/webextension-bookmark-dial\n\nPatches are welcome."},"developer_comments":null,"edit_url":"https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/developers/addon/bookmark-dial/edit","guid":"bookmarkdial@sblask","has_eula":false,"has_privacy_policy":false,"homepage":null,"icon_url":"https://addons.mozilla.org/user-media/addon_icons/663/663560-64.png?modified=1515022972","icons":{"32":"https://addons.mozilla.org/user-media/addon_icons/663/663560-32.png?modified=1515022972","64":"https://addons.mozilla.org/user-media/addon_icons/663/663560-64.png?modified=1515022972","128":"https://addons.mozilla.org/user-media/addon_icons/663/663560-128.png?modified=1515022972"},"is_disabled":false,"is_experimental":false,"is_noindexed":false,"last_updated":"2024-04-25T17:33:36Z","name":{"en-US":"Bookmark Dial"},"previews":[{"id":189143,"caption":{"en-US":"Choose a folder"},"image_size":[700,438],"image_url":"https://addons.mozilla.org/user-media/previews/full/189/189143.png?modified=1622132273","position":0,"thumbnail_size":[533,334],"thumbnail_url":"https://addons.mozilla.org/user-media/previews/thumbs/189/189143.jpg?modified=1622132273"},{"id":189144,"caption":{"en-US":"Create a bookmark using the browser's button"},"image_size":[700,438],"image_url":"https://addons.mozilla.org/user-media/previews/full/189/189144.png?modified=1622132273","position":1,"thumbnail_size":[533,334],"thumbnail_url":"https://addons.mozilla.org/user-media/previews/thumbs/189/189144.jpg?modified=1622132273"},{"id":189145,"caption":{"en-US":"The created bookmark appears in Bookmark Dial directly, a thumbnail has been generated automatically as the page was loaded in the active tab"},"image_size":[700,438],"image_url":"https://addons.mozilla.org/user-media/previews/full/189/189145.png?modified=1622132274","position":2,"thumbnail_size":[533,334],"thumbnail_url":"https://addons.mozilla.org/user-media/previews/thumbs/189/189145.jpg?modified=1622132274"},{"id":189146,"caption":{"en-US":"The thumbnail size and layout is set automatically"},"image_size":[700,438],"image_url":"https://addons.mozilla.org/user-media/previews/full/189/189146.png?modified=1622132274","position":3,"thumbnail_size":[533,334],"thumbnail_url":"https://addons.mozilla.org/user-media/previews/thumbs/189/189146.jpg?modified=1622132274"},{"id":189147,"caption":{"en-US":"...unless you set the column count manually in the preferences"},"image_size":[700,438],"image_url":"https://addons.mozilla.org/user-media/previews/full/189/189147.png?modified=1622132274","position":4,"thumbnail_size":[533,334],"thumbnail_url":"https://addons.mozilla.org/user-media/previews/thumbs/189/189147.jpg?modified=1622132274"},{"id":189148,"caption":{"en-US":"Use drag and drop to change the bookmark order"},"image_size":[700,438],"image_url":"https://addons.mozilla.org/user-media/previews/full/189/189148.png?modified=1622132274","position":5,"thumbnail_size":[533,334],"thumbnail_url":"https://addons.mozilla.org/user-media/previews/thumbs/189/189148.jpg?modified=1622132274"},{"id":189149,"caption":{"en-US":"Replace the autogenerated thumbnail with a new one after resizing the window"},"image_size":[700,438],"image_url":"https://addons.mozilla.org/user-media/previews/full/189/189149.png?modified=1622132274","position":6,"thumbnail_size":[533,334],"thumbnail_url":"https://addons.mozilla.org/user-media/previews/thumbs/189/189149.jpg?modified=1622132274"},{"id":189150,"caption":{"en-US":"You'll get a thumbnail based on what the webpage looks like.
