      Hi,
      I love to have the tabs on the (left) side. However, with side tabs there is the mostly empty window title bar shown above the address bar.
      This is not the case when tabs are on the top (and the Vivaldi button is chosen as menu position), where the tabs, the Vivaldi button and the window max/min/close buttons are combined into a single bar.

      Similarly, in order to kind of harmonize the appearance of side and top tabs, and to avoid wasting precious vertical space, I suggest to combine the window title and the addresss bars when tabs are on the side and the Vivaldi button is chosen as menu position.

      So this:
      0_1541068537778_title-and-address-bars.png
      Should look like:
      0_1541068543234_title-and-address-bars-combined.png

      I am using this awesome CSS mod to achieve this but have to redo the mod after every update: https://github.com/Sporif/CustomHooks/blob/master/hooks/combine-header-toolbar.css

      The title bar is no longer shown with vertical tabs as of Vivaldi 6.0, which was released today. ๐Ÿ˜ You can always enable it back if you prefer. Just go to Settings > Appearance > Window Appearance:

      Show Title Bar

      I like the idea, but with a little modification:

      0_1554791253874_a0a0e0e0-6b95-4066-825c-15da16b7ef74-image.png

      If only the address field is in the tab bar, there will be more room for tabs. Buttons (back, forward, refresh) can be hidden if you set up a shortcut or mouse gesture to toggle the (original) addressbar.

      0_1554791805392_4b15e1b1-04f8-431f-a43f-4d2f39f27c56-image.png

      Since the buttons can already be freely moved, I don't see a big obstacle to putting the addressfield in the tab bar.

      My modifications

      I'm also using the 'combine-header-toolbar.css'

      div#header {
          margin-bottom: -25px !important;
          z-index: 5 !important;
          pointer-events: none !important;
      }
      
      div.toolbar-addressbar {
          padding-left: 34px !important;
          padding-right: 135px !important;
      }
      
      div#pagetitle {
          display: none !important;
      }
      
      .toolbar .button-toolbar {
          height: 35px !important;
      }
      
      .button-toolbar > button[title="Suchmaschine รคndern"] {
          transform: translate(0,0) !important;
      }
      
      .sdwrapper .iconmenu-container.searchfield {
          height: 36px !important;
      }
      
      .addressfield {
          transform: translate(0,-1px) !important;
      }
      
      .toolbar-insideinput button {
          transform: translate(0,7px) !important;
      }
      
      .tabs-right#browser.win.win10 .tabs-bottom#browser.win.win10 .tabs-left#browser.win.win10, #browser.win.win10 #header #titlebar .window-buttongroup button {
          height: 34px !important;
      }
      
      #browser.win.win10 .window-buttongroup button {
          width: 44px !important;
      }
      
      #browser.win .window-buttongroup button.window-close {
          margin-right: 0 !important;
      }
      

      and I would like to be able to drag the window at the vivaldi button

      Screenshot_19.png

      I usually open the vivaldi menu via hotkey and there for disabled the 'pointer-events' on that button

      .vivaldi {
          pointer-events: none !important;
      }
      
      #titlebar > button > span.application-icon > svg > path:nth-child(1),
      #titlebar > button > span.application-icon > svg > path:nth-child(2) {
      	display: none !important;
      }
      
      #titlebar > button > span.application-icon > svg {
          width: 22px !important;
          height: 22px !important;
          transform: translate(0,2px) !important;
          background-image: url(data:image/png;base64, 'very long base64 string' ) !important;
      }
      

      does anyone know how to make the button or rather the background-image able to drag the window from?

      Blockquote Combine Window Title and Address Bar when Tabs are on the Side

      Not for the Side position only, but for Tabs on Bottom position too! ๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿป
      It's very annoying the Title bar on top.

      The code at
      https://github.com/Sporif/CustomHooks/blob/master/hooks/combine-header-toolbar.css
      was working perfectly wonderful for me for almost the past year. But, today..... I clicked Update on my browser to bring it up to 3.3.2022.36, and now, it looks silly. The Vivaldi Menu and Minimize, Maximize, and Exit buttons are overlaying on top of some of the other items. I attempted to modify the code on my side to see about fixing it, but to no avail, b/c I'm no programmer/developer. If any one has any insight to get this back to proper appearance, I would not be sad for you to take a crack at it.

      After failing at modifying the css, I thought to try to customize the toolbar, and add spacers to each end of the toolbar itself, but couldn't find how to do that. Otherwise, that'd've been a reasonable solution.
      Thanks everyone!

      I just tried that, thanks, but the V icon (and the hamburger) are still laying on top of the Back button.

      Aha, now i see what you mean, but it's simple to work around via a kludge.

      1. I temporarily disabled Native Window & relaunched so i could see what's happening -- this showed me:what you said is true & i'd not noticed before, coz i long ago customised this bar.
      2. So i Shift-dragged a useless-to-me icon up from the Status Bar, & placed it where the V will end up.

      3. Re-enabled NW then relaunched.
      4. Huzzah!

      Yeah, that's takes care of the left side.... but not the right ๐Ÿ˜ž Minimize, Restore, & Exit are overlaying the end of the address bar, Profile options, and Extension Expander. I can't win.....

      I've also been using the script from the first post for a long time and it stopped working with 3.3. The reason is that some of the elements in the browser were renamed.

      I just had a look, and for me, the fix was as simple as replacing all instances of the following in the base script:

      .toolbar.toolbar-addressbar
      

      with:

      .UrlBar.toolbar.toolbar-mainbar.toolbar-large
      

      Now (everything that I use) looks just like it did before 3.3.

      I hope that helps you both.

      This kept them from completely overlapping, thanks.

      They were still pretty crowded, but tweaking padding-left from 24px to 40px under "Reduce toolbar size for vivaldi button" gave them a comfortable margin. Probably dependent on screen resolution.

      @zo1d Unfortunately this doesnโ€™t work on macOS. Is there any way to merge the window title & address bar into one on the Mac?
