Add the ability to color code window tabs and allow custom tab names that are not linked to the actual file name.
Description:
The current window tab design in InDesign can become cluttered, especially when working with multiple files that have long names. The tab size automatically adjusts to the length of the file name, which leads to a cluttered workspace, making it difficult to quickly locate and switch between files. I suggest two enhancements:
The ability to color code window tabs, allowing users to visually differentiate between files at a glance.
The ability to edit the tab name independently of the file name, so users can give tabs more intuitive or customized names without altering the actual file name. This would help streamline the workflow, especially in projects with many similarly named files.
Why it is important:
These enhancements would significantly improve productivity and reduce time spent scrolling and searching for the correct file. By adding color coding and customizable tab names, users would be able to quickly identify the files they are working with, making the workspace more organized and easier to navigate. This is particularly beneficial for designers managing large projects with numerous assets and versions.
