Separate buttons would make sense.
Agree

Agree
I mean there is plenty of space in the statusbar, so why not. To clarify, for people who don't understand, I meant buttons for the various Workspaces or Jobs.
-
can you switch workspace via keyboard shortcuts?
-
@TalGarik Yes, and they can be customised in Settings -> Keyboard -> Workspaces
-
@RasheedHolland You can already create buttons for them. Since these are commands they can be part of a command chain and therefore they can be buttons.
-
This now exists as an experimental feature called Workspaces which you can find in "vivaldi://experiments". Once it is enabled there you can use it almost just like Operas Workspaces. However currently you are only able to switch between the Workspaces and not have them as a permanent button on the toolbar like opera. This can be edited and changed with Command chains and custom CSS if you want to put in the effort to make it even more like Opera. Hope this helps!

this function would be good, it is like the "manage people" but more practical, I could switch between work tabs or session to leisure session or tabs, as is shown in the animation above

-

OK cool thanks, will check it out.
-
@cOAPerator I prefer the workspace management of the Sidekick browser (https://www.meetsidekick.com) or Arc Browser (https://arc.net). In any case, it is a feature that is missing a lot I think.
-
It would be great if the new Workspace feature could show a have a different bookmark bar so that I truly could separate my work and personal flows.

Can you describe in short what's so great about it? What I hate about browsers like Sidekick and Arc is that they got rid of the tab-bar, I actually hate having to use the sidebar.

I have just checked out Workspaces on Vivaldi 5.7 and it's nice and simple however I would indeed like separate buttons perhaps in the statusbar, because this will save you quite a lot of extra clicks.
-
@RasheedHolland Then create the buttons, you already can. You can also switch workspaces by keyboard shortcut, or by using quick commands, which arguably saves the most clicks, because it’s zero. But yeah, wanting to click is fine. All the tools to achieve this are already available, this is the reason why Vivaldi implemented them, so people can realize their own vision.

And how to do it?

- Enable custom buttons and workspaces in
vivaldi://experiments/, restart - Create the number of workspaces you want to access directly from a button (max 9)
- Open
vivaldi://settings/qc, look for command chains and create a new one with the+button - Input a name (e.g. workspace1)
- Pick your command (switch to workspace 1)
- Repeat for all your workspaces
- Open the toolbar editor from the menu or from quick commands (customize toolbar)
- Switch to command chains in the menu and move the custom buttons to any toolbar
- Bonus: the button icons can be changed in
vivaldi://settings/themes⇒ editor ⇒ icons. Either load/create/edit an SVG with Inkscape, or load a fitting image (png)
- Enable custom buttons and workspaces in

Interesting, but I couldn't make it work. I'm afraid this Command Chain stuff is a bit too complex for me at the moment.

I don't know how it works in Opera or the other browsers that you mentioned, but I came to the conclusion that the way it's currently implemented in Vivaldi 5.7 is a bit confusing. I personally would simply like to assign certain websites to certain Workspaces, which mean that even when you close those websites, they will reload when you choose a certain Workspace. At the moment this doesn't seem to be the case?

@rachmaninov jesust christ, so freaking true, that's insane how stuborn they are with adding this feature
