[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Thank you. In my config, I've also implemented "(setq
tab-bar-inhibit-inactive-group-tab-hints t)" which suppresses tab hints on
group tabs when inactive groups are being displayed as they are generally
superfluous in that case. We could make suppressing tab hints on group tabs
when inactive groups are being displayed as the only behavior which is also
fine by me.

(defun my/tab-bar-tab-group-format-function (tab i &optional current-p)





*  (let ((tab-bar-tab-hints         (if (and
tab-bar-show-inactive-group-tabs
tab-bar-inhibit-inactive-group-tab-hints)             nil
 tab-bar-tab-hints)))*    (concat
     (propertize
      my:tab-bar-tab-group-name-prefix
      'face (if current-p 'tab-bar-tab-group-current
'tab-bar-tab-group-inactive))
     (tab-bar-tab-group-format-default tab i current-p))))
