F451  One of my favorite Safari plug-ins. It does what the others do, but better. (e.g., find function, increasing and decreasing page font sizes). Many other very helpful and unobtrusive features. I have been a user since SafariStand first hit the scene.

SULEIMAN KHAN  Oh man...this is one application I NEED to have working to keep up my browsing workflow.

Cases in point?

1) Use the address bar shortcut key to quickly do a google search whenever opening up a new tab (seeing as Safari likes to give focus to the address bar whenever a new tab is made)

2) With multiple tabs open, use the tab sidebar to scroll down to the last of your tabs where Safari itself would have you click on some miniscule arrow presenting a drop down list where you get to try and remember what tab you wanted again.

3) Again with multiple tabs, quickly go from tab to tab using just the comma and period keys.

I miss it. I miss it. I miss it.

Dev, any ideas when we can expect an update? This is irreplaceable software.

NORAA  Not sure if this will work for you - but I am running Snow Leopard on my first generation Macbook Pro, with a Core Duo. In other words, my processor is only 32-bit. Thus, Safari loads in 32-bit mode, and all my plug-ins work! (Glims, SafariStand, etc.) So it may be possible to just open Safari in 32-bit mode to get your plug-ins back. Don't know if this will work though since these plug-ins rely on InputManagers which is not 64-bit compatible...and simply may not load at all when SL is running in 64-bit mode.

MAGENTIS  Sidebar also showing up when disabled for me too. Also, Safari's built in 'Reopen Windows from Last Session' option seems to be gone from the History menu.

SWORDMAN  Does anyone know where SafariStand's preferences are kept? I need to delete it's preference file.

Help?

I've looked in Library/Preferences, but found nothing with the word "stand" or "safaristand" in it.

I'm trying to reset it.

Thanks for any help!

LEOPOLDBLOOM  I haven't used SafariStand in a while, but I think it leaves some stuff in ~/Library/Safari. You could also use the Finder to search your entire hard drive for files and folders containing "stand."

SWORDMAN  SJK, you were right. I actually found it just now before coming back here. Thanks anyways!

All is right with the world now. Except the swath of destruction Bush left behind. That's gonna take awhile.

Safari/Safaristand works great now though!

PROGRAMHAPPY  Developer, I have a HUGE feature request that I think will be quite helpful to many users. There is (was) an add-on called "Twicetab" (see "Twicetab 1.3.1.1" here at macupdate), but it doesn't work on Safari 4. One of the optional features of TwiceTab that I desperately miss is the ability to make a URL (or domain name) in my clipboard open in a new tab. For instance, if I copy the text "http://www.google.com" or "google.com" and then double-click on an empty space in the Bookmarks Bar, it will open the Google home page in that new tab. However, if there is no URL or domain name at the top of my clipboard, the double-click action in the Bookmarks Bar will perform the user's default preference (home page, blank window, etc.) for a new tab. Whadaya say, guys? Hook us up!

Thanks in advance!

LEOPOLDBLOOM  I really like SafariStand, but it seems to be conflicting a little with Glims (i.e. inexplicable crashing of Safari 4 that only occurs when both are installed). Stand still offers some very nice features that Glims doesn't, but if I must choose only one, I think it will have to be Glims. Here's to hoping the developer of one or both of these plugins addresses compatibility issues.

BRUCEANDERSON  I'm glad to see SafariStand updated for Safari 4 Beta, but I can't find the option to disable GIF animations. Has this function been removed? I hope not, because I need this option to make Safari usable for me. :(

F451  This version appears to be a work in progress so there are features that are not yet completed. I do not see the animation feature in the settings so it may or may not be gone.

BRUCEANDERSON  Good point. I'll keep my fingers crossed that it'll be in the final version! Of course it would be nice if Apple would just provide us borderline epileptics with the ability to disable GIF animations ourselves so we wouldn't have to rely on third parties to give us the relief we need.

SJK  AFAIK none of the Safari plugins for Safari 3/4 support disabling GIF animations; it seems to be a tough issue to resolve.

BRUCEANDERSON  Huh. I thought SafariStand 3 could disable GIF animations. Maybe I'm thinking of an earlier version.

SJK  Here, the "Kill Gif Animation" option is dimmed-out under the General tab in the SafariStand Setting window of SS 3.1L161; you can read the text but can't (dis|en)able it. Not sure about earlier versions because I was using PithHelmet's "Animate Images: Once" option (ideal for me) before that (and machete scripts, alas) broke with Safari 3. I vaguely remember reading it's similar with Saft, too. The Glims feature list doesn't mention anything about support animation blocking, which I'd think it would if it was possible.

That's some background behind my earlier "tough issue to resolve" remark.
