Keyboard shortcuts to use Panorama feature
Use Ctrl + Spacebar keys get into or out of Panorama display of current tabs. Use option+space on Mac OS for the same. Organizing tabs in Firefox made easy, what say?
hello, the shortcut is not working for my browser, if there has been any change in that feature, please rectify it cause shortcut for this is really heaven :-)
I don’t know if you already found out, but the shortcut has been changed to ctrl+shift+e (and mac equivalent probably option+shift+e or something).
To change the key shorcut use Customizable shortcuts:

Thanks Cam, this was helpful to me. I wasn’t able to find the shortcut combination within FF itself!
FF4 Stable Release Users: CTRL+SHIFT+E
