What problem are you experiencing?

If you have a large number of tabs open (e.g. 12 or more) and they go beyond the width of the window, comfy does not scroll the tabs so that the active tab is always visible when it starts up. This creates a little confusion as to what workflow you are looking at.

When does this problem occur?

When you have a large number of tabs open

How often do you encounter this problem?

Multiple times per day

How much does this problem affect your workflow?

Causes moderate inconvenience

Current workarounds

Manually scroll to the active tab each time.

Ideas for solutions (Optional)

Ensure the selected/active tab is always visible when starting up for the first time.

There isn't currently any logic in the ComfyUI frontend to automatically scroll the active tab into view when you start up with many tabs open. The tab components rely on horizontal scrolling, but if the active tab is out of view, you have to scroll manually. This is a known usability gap—related issues discuss tab overflow and scrolling (especially on touch devices), but none address ensuring the active tab is visible on startup for desktop use cases [#5203] [#2891]. No recent pull requests have implemented this feature, and the current codebase does not include such functionality. For now, manual scrolling remains the only workaround.
