That's a part of bug 1891797 comment 0's spec I didn't have time to do, but should be reasonable.

I might've nerdsniped (become nerdsnapt?) myself into this.

Looks like amylee was heading in this direction too - here's a Figma spec for closing duplicate tabs across a window: https://www.figma.com/file/wP9MY9KJn9xqPf140lTvTv/Fx-View-Specs-2023?type=design&node-id=11928%3A16684&mode=design&t=NXQJBHHWAHC1Y8hl-1

Comment 14

[Pascal Chevrel:pascalc]

Note added to Nightly 127 release notes with this wording:

It is now possible to close all duplicate tabs in a window with the Close duplicate tabs command available from the List all tabs widget in the tab bar or the context menu a tab.

Comment 15

[Chris H-C :chutten]

...or the context menu a tab

Might be a grammar error there?

Comment 16

[Pascal Chevrel:pascalc]

Yes, I updated that to " or a tab context menu".

Comment 17

[Catalin Sasca, Desktop Test Engineering [:csasca]]

Verified on Firefox 127.0b4 that the duplicate tabs can be closed by using "Close duplicate tabs" from the "List all tabs" dropdown.

Tests were performed on macOS 14.5, Windows 11 and Ubuntu 24.04.

Hi,

There are some string changes to "Close Duplicate Tabs". Should a new bug be filed for the changes?

There will also be string changes to https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1891797 as well (closing duplicate tabs in the context menu).

Thanks!

This is a question for the PM in charge of this feature, not the release manager.
