Cannot change the width of vertical tabs
-
I've been using the tabs on the left for a long time and I haven't been able to expand the size of the tabs for a few weeks. The selection part appears to be "hidden".
The + button to add new tab is hidden, for example:
Then I have to change the view of the tabs and then go back to the left to change the width, but the error quickly returns.
-
Also when Vivaldi is in fullscreen and MacOS Menu Bar auto hide is disabled, it scales the tab section weirdly. It eats the same space from web pages below the shortcut icons.

@salavma Thanks! Just had the same problem and because of your note, I was able to fix it more quickly. -- dfc

@dfc123 I'm glad it was helpful to you!

Thank goodness it's not just me! This bug has been with me for a couple of weeks now. The cursor is not available to resize the tabs when on the left. By opening settings and changing the tabs location momentarily before switching back to left, does appear to temporarily fix the issue.

@razzraziel It's a bug, with possibly dozens of existing discussions already in the forum, in numerous threads. It's already fixed in Snapshot, so you'll get it with the next Stable update i suppose.
Pls note, my original reply, through my own carelessness, accidentally went to @razzraziel, whereas it should have gone to @nandadias. I have now attempted to correct my silly error. Sorry to both of you.

I'm not a paid employee so that's all I can do. I can't visit numerous threads to check all previous bug reports before posting new one. Thanks for the info.

Since version 5 (standalone install) the vertical tabs have been broken. They lock up and cannot be resized. Sometimes this hack works to relieve the lock-up — in the Settings set tabs on R and again on L.
The vertical tabs is one of the most compelling features of Vivaldi. It was working elegantly and PERFECTLY in prior versions. Apparently, the dev team couldn't leave well enough alone.
Even when not locked up, the tab width is now the same across all windows. If you widen the tabs in one window, they widen in all other windows. That is a completely moronic restriction. Each window has its own use and purpose.
Please bring back the original vertical tab functionality. It was terrific. -
@avelev What version are you using, and on what kind of system? There was a bug like you describe, but it has been long-fixed and I never see it in any of my installs any more.
