How do I force all Tabs to the right hand side, leaving space on the left?
It feels more intuitive to have the first tab against the right hand side and it's easier to find because it always remains in the same position when, eg, closing other tabs. I use TabMixPlus, but can't find the required option. Many thanks.

Go to the Mozilla Add-ons Web Page {web link} (There’s a lot of good stuff here) and search for what you want.
sniffer,
There is a support forum for TabMix Plus over here:

Thanks for the reply. I've scoured the Add-Ons area, but still can't find a shift-tabs-right command.

Shifting the left most tab to the right probably won't really work as this tab will shift out of view if you open a lot of tabs and have scroll buttons appearing. To keep a tab into view, best would be to pin this tab , so it will always appear as one of the first tabs in the pinned tabs area.
Many thnx for your reply. Clearly this is not an option many people are interested in. I guess there must be code somewhere that controls the function, but that's another matter. Pending a satisfactory alternative, I've established a workaround that, though clumsy, works. If I fill the tab bar, by definition, the right hand side will be filled, which is where I want to work. Like I said, clumsy, but functional.
You can check out code in the userChrome.css file to see that it doesn't really work well (tabs move around when you hover or click).
Add code to the userChrome.css file below the default @namespace line.
@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */ #tabbrowser-tabs tab:first-child {-moz-box-ordinal-group:2}
The customization files userChrome.css (user interface) and userContent.css (websites) are located in the chrome folder in the Firefox profile folder.
You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
- Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
- Create the chrome folder (lowercase) in the <xxxxxxxx>.default profile folder if this folder doesn't exist
- Use a plain text editor like Notepad to create a (new) userChrome.css file in this folder (the names are case sensitive)
- Paste the code in the userChrome.css file in the editor window and make sure that the userChrome.css file starts with the default @namespace line
- Make sure that you select "All files" and not "Text files" when you save the file via "Save file as" in the text editor as userChrome.css.
Otherwise Windows may add a hidden .txt file extension and you end up with a not working userChrome.css.txt file

I need to check a couple of things. Does EVERYTHING inside the box constitute the code (including the link)? I assumed yes. My computer had neither userChrome.css nor userContent.css, so i created them in the default profile folder (the latter .css is empty). Otherwise, the procedure was straight forward, though nothing changed.
This code is needed once, at the beginning of the userChrome.css file.
@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */
Personally, I use ChromEdit Plus for working with the 3 user files. http://webdesigns.ms11.net/chromeditp.html 1st the original version of CE in 2004, then CEP after the original was abandoned (like maybe 2006 or 2007).
