I’m a big user of Tree Style Tabs. And I LOVE using pinned tabs.

Recently, I modified my CSS so that my sidebar will shrink/expand on hover. I really like getting this screen real estate back.

But there’s a problem: My pinned tabs keep moving every time the sidebar changes width, causing the entire tab tree to slide up. (GIF) This means I have to hover, wait for the tabs, find the one I want, and finally click on it, rather than - y’know- just mousing over there and clicking.

Is there any way to change this, such that my pinned tabs stay in the “wide” configuration, and are just “revealed” when the sidebar expands?

Thanks Lemmy folks!

    Found a config on the internet:

    :root {
  --sidebar-hover-width: 52px;
  --sidebar-visible-width: 320px;
}

#TabsToolbar, #sidebar-header {
  display: none !important;
}

#sidebar-box {
  position: relative !important;
  overflow:hidden;
  max-width: var(--sidebar-hover-width) !important;
}

#sidebar-box:hover {
  transition: all 200ms !important;
  max-width: var(--sidebar-visible-width) !important;
}

      Here’s the one I used:
