Solved function of "workspaces" as in the new opera
-
@Pesala for a couple of minutes you made my day, alas not on MacOS
PS: good to see they are coming, in the long run I guess they will be available on MacOS too
-
@TalGarik It's only present in the snapshot builds (also on macOS).
-
@AltCode thanks! then I will wait until it will come to the Stable version, I was just curious to see how it has been implemented, let's hope this feature and and the iOS version will come out soon.
-
So i managed it to work, but it still didn't help me organise my tabs. When you send a tab to a workspace, it is also displayed there in the group from which you sent it there. I decided to ungroup it directly in the workspace and that freed all the tabs from that group in the tab bar. More chaos. I'm waiting for sending tabs to the group via right click option...

I find this Opera feature with the workspace handy aswell.
I never knew about Opera's Workspace feature, I don't know if I personally would need such a feature, I guess I need to check it out. However, if it works via the sidebar I have no interest since I actually hate having to use the sidebar, I try to avoid it as much as possible. I only use it sometimes to clear my downloads and for the reading list.
-
@RasheedHolland Customise the toolbars. It is now possible to move any side panel to the Address Bar or Status Bar.
-
For the moment started the implementation as Top Button

Not sure how about now.

Thanks, didn't know about this. I have now moved the download and reading list button to the addressbar, or perhaps I will move them to the statusbar, I'm not sure yet. However, it will of course still open the sidebar, that's what I meant. I would prefer them to work just like the tab-based bookmarks and history manager.
-
@RasheedHolland, instead of moving the Downloads and Reading List Panel buttons to another toolbar, add new Downloads and Reading List pop up menu buttons from the list of options in the Navigation Toolbar section of the Toolbar Editor.
To stay on topic, Workspaces menu can be moved around as well, but the feature is still very much a work in progress, hence also hidden behind Experiments even in the Snapshot.
If you do test Workspaces and come across bugs, annoyances or have some additional wishes, please report them in this thread, in a recent Snapshot blog or directly to the bug tracker.

To be honest, I didn't understand what you mean. I personally prefer to see these buttons in the statusbar. However, there is a problem, namely when I open the ''Downloads'' and ''Readling List'' panel and close them again via the statusbar buttons, the sidebar panel will stay visible.

Are you saying that Workspaces is already implemented in an upcoming Vivaldi version? In that case I won't be downloading Opera, I will see it when it shows up in Vivaldi.
-
@RasheedHolland Set the panels to floating, and close them by clicking on the page, not the panel icon.
-
@RasheedHolland There are popup alternatives available for Downloads and Reading List as well. To open the Toolbar Editor go to Vivaldi menu > View > Customize Toolbar. From there drag the relevant buttons from the list of Navigation Toolbar buttons to wherever you want them in the UI.
See a video about the Reading List popup here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V2FQGc_x3B8.
If you have more questions about Downloads and Reading List, please start a new topic.

@RasheedHolland There is a Workspaces experiment in the latest Snapshot. People have been testing it.
-
Really experimental in 5.7, switching a few workspaces causes broken oder of tabs in tab bar after close.
I already reported a bug to tracker. -

OK cool, hopefully you won't have to use the sidebar for this feature. At the moment I don't really know if I need such a Workspace feature, but who knows, I might actually like it.

Thanks JaneN, I now know what you mean. I never really used the toolbar customization feature that much, but I have now added the Downloads and Reading List buttons next to the addressbar, with a separator so that my extenionsbar doesn't get cluttered, and this indeed does the trick. I finally got rid of the sidebar! That's why Vivaldi is the best!
-
@Pesala I am also interested in it. In Opera, there are buttons for it in the sidebar bar at the top.
In Vivaldi I have activated it already, and also found the shortcuts in settings.
But with Ctrl+Shift+1,2,3... nothing happens.
What am I doing wrong?
I just found out that there now is a new tab on the left called "Workspaces" where I can add my first workspace and more.
My question is answered. -

it works for me, the spaces are switched
Ctrl+Shift+0 toggles to default space -
I really need a function to sort spaces in the list on top
preferably by drag and drop, although the up/down buttons will also work -
