Adding the bookmarks-bar to the Toolbar-Editor so you can put Bookmarks next to the URL-Bar

devarion

In other browsers I always put my bookmarks-bar left to the URL-Bar. In Vivaldi this is not possible unfortunately and I really don't understand why. Using a whole bar for almost only the URL is such a waste of space, especially when you have an ultra-wide monitor. Its so much nicer, sleeker and minimalistic to have one bar less on the screen and having the URL and Bookmarks beneath together in the same row.

This feature is so important to me that I will have to stay with firefox instead. I acutally have 2 friends who told me the same and that they don't use chrome / vivaldi because its not possible there.

I think for Vivaldi, calling itself "the most adjustable browser", this feature a must!

@devarion A line of CSS can be used to autohide the Bookmark Bar to save vertical space.

/* Simple AutomaticBookmark-bar */
.bookmark-bar-top .bookmark-bar {margin-bottom: -28px; z-index: 1; transform: translateY(0); transition: transform 0.1s 0.5s !important;}
.bookmark-bar-top .bookmark-bar::before {content: ''; position: absolute; height: 12px; width: 100%; top: 100%;}
.bookmark-bar-top .bookmark-bar:not(:focus-within):not(:hover) {transform: translateY(-100%);  transition: transform 0.1s 0.5s !important;}

Ctrl+Drag all the buttons from the Status Bar onto the Address Bar / Navigation Bar. Set the Status Bar to show only the Status Bar Overlay to save more vertical space.

Leave the Panel Toolbar always on to make use of the horizontal space. Tabs on the side don't help much; one may as well use the Window Panel. Tile two web pages instead; that makes better use of ultra-wide monitors.

Thanks, but hiding the bookmarks bar is really not the same. I want/need to see my bookmarks always. Why the heck is it so complicated to put those bookmarks next to the adressbar? Is there really no such css code?

And I actually use the function to tile two web pages, but that is something totally different and has nothing to do with the bars.

I would greatly appreciate if this feature is added. I have a bunch of bookmarks that I click on for easy access to things like youtube and I would much rather have it in the toolbar visible at all times
