Tab with no close box?
#
In Drummer, if you end up with a tab with no close box, you can still close the tab if you're willing to do some digging.
#
Before you do anything...
#
The reason the tab is misbehaving is probably because there was an error loading the file.
#
If you know how to access the JavaScript console, open it, and look for an error message.
#
It should offer a clue as to what's going wrong.
#
If there is an error, please
report
the problem.
#
Try the Close command in the File menu.
#
Click on the tab to activate it.
#
Choose Close from the File menu.
#
That will often get rid of the tab.
#
If that doesn't do it...
#
These instructions are for Chrome, something similar should work in other browsers.
#
Right-click on the tab.
#
Look for an element in the class spCloseBox.

.
#
Edit the style section by single-clicking on the element and change hidden to visible.
#
The close box should now appear.
#
Click it to close the tab.
