Is there way to prevent the tabs from sliding left when opening a new tab?
Tabs in the tab bar slide left when opening a new tab. Is this normal? I have many many tabs open.

Hmm, what are your settings here:
(1) In a new tab, type or paste about:config in the address bar and press Enter/Return. Click the button promising to be careful or accepting the risk.
(2) In the search box above the list, type or paste insert and pause while the list is filtered
(3) The browser.tabs.insertAfterCurrent preference is normally false, and new tabs that are not links in the current page open at the right end. So everything has to slide over.
If you change this to true, any new tab will open next to the current tab. This replaces the need for an add-on to move a new tab next to the current tab.
Do you have this customized to true? If not, try double-clicking it to change the value from false to true.
(4) The browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent preference is normally true. This only refers to links launched from the current page and not other kind of new tabs.
Do you have this customized to false? If so, try double-clicking it to change the value from false to true, or you can right-click > Reset to restore the default behavior.

Yes, this is normal. To see the other tabs, select the left or right arrows on the sides of the tab bar. If you don't want the tabs sliding around, try closing some of your tabs or opening some of them in a new window.
Bummer. :( It is really annoying to scroll the tabs back constantly.
Are you opening the new tab next to the current tab?
Note that you can double-click either Tab scroll button to move one full screen width. A triple click moves to the first or last tab.

Thanks for the tips. I wasn't aware of those.
What would you prefer to happen when the bar is full of tabs and a new tab is added?
Firefox wants the new tab on the bar to be visible when you open it, so if the bar is full, something else has to shrink or move.

Preferably, the new tab would appear next to the current one and the current tab stays in place. Unless the current tab is the rightmost.
