Hope you can fix it. :)
Btw, I'm using Eclipse in SAP/ABAP development, if this is of any use for you.

No effect after installation: tabs still horizontal

Submitted by Fedor Chernogorov on Fri, 2017-04-28 04:50

Hi!

I'm really looking forward to start using your plugin.

However, after installation, I don't see any effect on my Eclipse Neon.

Should the tabs be arranged automatically in vertical manner, or should I somehow enable this feature?

So, for now unfortunately the status is that plugin doesn't work.

Try to open the Editors List view.

Not quite Editor List

Submitted by Milind Rao on Tue, 2017-01-17 08:03

Like the other commentator, I sorely miss the EditorList plugin. This provides one function of that plugin. You can see a list of the open files. Unfortunately, you can't really close the files from the plugin which is a big deal. Also, the sort is a little flakey. I don't think as new files are loaded, the list stays sorted. It would be nice if these two things got fixed. Also, I really don't need a confirmation dialog to remove files from the list.

what I was looking for since Editor List

Submitted by Missing name Mising name on Thu, 2016-11-03 16:51

Exactly what I needed. Have been looking for a plug-in like this since Editor List quit support after Eclipse 3.7.

One issue I am seeing though is that I am getting a popup dialog with error:
An error has occurred. See error log for more details.
INVALID_CHARACTER_ERR: An invalid or illegal XML character is specified.

The log shows the following for vertical.tab.list:
saveState memento <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

and the dump:
org.w3c.dom.DOMException: INVALID_CHARACTER_ERR: An invalid or illegal XML character is specified.

... snip ...

I couldn't find a place to submit a bug report or any forums for this plug-in, so included this info in a review.
