User reviews
Users appreciate the "Popup window" Firefox add-on for enabling borderless, simple, and effective popup windows useful for multitasking and documentation. However, they commonly face issues such as inability to maximize popup windows, keyboard shortcuts that stop functioning intermittently, and problems when merging popups back to tabs which can disrupt scripts. Users also desire more customization options for window size, titles, and activation methods. Overall, the add-on is well-liked but has recurring functional limitations noted by several users.
Pros
- Provides useful borderless popup windows for viewing web pages
- Simple and effective extension that 'just works'
- Highly regarded as a great or must-have add-on by multiple users
- Allows opening multiple windows for documentation or multitasking purposes
- Helps create 'sticky' windows to keep important windows separate
Cons
- Popup windows cannot be maximized; maximize button is disabled or greyed out
- Keyboard shortcut for opening popup windows stops working after a while and does not stick
- Issues occur when merging popup windows back to a tab, especially with only one tab open causing scripts to fail
- Does not allow customization options such as changing window size or title easily
- Some desired features such as search in popup windows or alternative activation methods (alt+click) are missing
