@amirsamir Good. I don't think we need the clutter of another button. Thread moved from Feature Requests and tagged as resolved.

As @LonM said, you can easily toggle the tab bar with a keyboard shortcut or by writing "tab bar" in Quick Commands (default: F2). If you want to switch tabs while the tab bar is hidden you can still use Ctrl+Tab and Ctrl+Shift+Tab, or type part of the name of a tab in Quick Commands and navigate to it that way. If you enable the Tab Cycler, pressing Ctrl+Tab will popup a list of all open tabs so that you can still see them if you want. Edit: If you want an even more distraction free workspace you can toggle off the UI (Ctrl+F11) or just go full screen (F11). You can still switch tabs like above, and you can access the address bar using Ctrl+L or F8.

@jhe This would have to be an option in Settings, so I moved the thread and renamed it.

Thanks, my tabs are set like that but I found it insufficient. Having it show at first would be way better for my workflow.

@Dystasia said in Show Tabs from Active Tab Stack in a Secondary Tab Bar: What do you guys think? I am one of those who thinks that tab cluttering is best avoided in the first place by not opening so many tabs in one window. For those who do open lots of tabs in one window, I think that some simple improvements could be made to tab management without the clutter of additional Tab bars, e.g. Reorder Tab Stacks by Dragging Thumbnails Tab Stack Cycling Shortcuts to Tab Stacks -> Tab i.e. if Tabs are stacked, they are treated as one tab as far as shortcuts are concerned Treat Stacks as one Tab when Scrolling Improve Thumbnail Previews - For those who stack more than 10 tabs in a stack, the previews should shrink to fit or be scrollable Option to Show Webpage Icons in Tab Stack Previews

Opera 12.18 has three options: No Wrap (like Vivaldi does currently) Wrap to multiple lines Show Extender Menu

Seems like the tab bar is quite buggy since the latest update, my problem is active tab randomly go blank & all GUI freeze when open new tab or switching tab.

@ornorm It seems similar to this topic.

See also Independent UI Zoom per Windows and Make Resizing of Vertical Tab Bar Independent for each Window I see that you requested this feature three years ago. I guess it is rather hard to do. Some users open lots of windows. I wonder if there could be an Automatic position setting that would position the tab bar to suit the current window's aspect ratio? I also use a dual monitor setup with 1200x1600 Portrait as my primary monitor and 1920x1080 Landscape as my secondary monitor.

This is the solutions exactly I was looking for. Thanks! For others interested in similar navigation: Enable thumbnails via F2 and "Tab Thumbnails". Then the shortcut settings from @Pesala answer to hide/unhide tabs. And since thumbnails are enabled, tabs will apear with their thumbnails when you press your shortcut.

@stilez said in Looking for a tab group manager extension - suggestions?: the groups/stacks are almost never from a single domain They don't have to be, but if you right-click and use stack tabs by host, the stack will take the host name. You can then drag and drop other tabs from other domains into that stack.

@aminought I modified the thread title because panels and the tab bar can also be placed on the right. While you're waiting for an option, you could try the Tab Bar one the left and the panels on the right. The panels can also be made to float over the page in the latest Snapshots, in which case you may find it workable with the Vertical Tab Bar and Panels on the same side of the Window.

+1 for this. Ultra Wide monitor, 2560×1080. That's how it looks like: Vertical tab bar is wonderful. But I would like to use my screen space more efficiently, and to see more than a few words in the tab titles.

@konelinx Do you know that you can resize the Tab Bar when it's placed on the side, so that it takes up less space, or just the width of an icon? Then tooltips will show the Title text.

@vincer The Quick Commands dialogue (F2) can also be used to select tabs as can the Tab Cycler. Show as list works best if you have a lot of tabs. Vote for Option to Autohide Tab Bar UI
