Rename 'Page Designer' (HTML title / browser's tab name) to the Page's Name

althony.lim.xun.yi Internal · Jul 18 2022

Suggest to rename the ‘Page Designer’ naming to the Page's specific name. 

 

This will enhance the development experience, when there is too many tabs open during development, it's too time consuming to search and switch between tabs / pages. Proper naming will help to save time in opening / switching to the correct tabs.

*I also wish to see this enhancement for Object Browser when opening multiple tabs for table / procedure / functions etc.

Thanks!

    One major hurdle for the APEX team to overcome with implementing this feature request is the use of global session state to know which application/page(for builder) or object( for object browser) you are currently in. One way that I get around this issue is either:

    1. Serialize changes page by page. Obviously this requires some time to think about order of operations. This does not solve the object browser issue.
       
    2. Use a plugin like SessionBox (Chromium) or extension Multi-Account Containers(Firefox) so that each tab is its own unique apex session and can freely set global values without conflicting with other tabs.
       
    3. Open a incognito/private window in your respective browser for two unique sessions

    I prefer Firefox + Multi-Account Containers because it allows me to save browser session history in any number of groups. I can isolate browser history information in some method of my choosing(usually project by project) so that I do not get bogged down by irrelevant autocomplete from one project to the next. I find this helpful when hopping from one cloud environment to another.
