Clicking on the current tab in existing window moves the tab to a new window
-
After the previous update, clicking on a tab opens the current tab as a new window.
If you change the "Tab Bar Position" to side or bottom it is fine but whenever you use on top it makes same thing.
It is pretty annoying -

Hi, I open 3 tabs in the background, click on second tab move the first one to a new window?
I cant reproduce this with Vivaldi 6.2.3105.58 on Linux.
Please add your Vivaldi and OS version.Please test this in a private window or the guest view, this except extensions and use the default settings.

Hi @mib3berlin thank you for your response.
I am using MacOS Sonoma 14.0 (23A344)
When you show your tabs on top, you can move each of your tabs horizontally and stack them with other tabs and there isn't any problem with that.
However, when you hold a tab and move it vertically, Vivaldi opens it as a new window, but before you had to go further down to do that.
I think with the latest update (maybe a new OS version issue) when you click and the tab moves, even if it's very small, Vivaldi opens that tab in a new window -
@AN4LYST
Ah, now I understand, I have to move the tab to this position:
To create a new window on Windows 11, I can check on Linux but not on MacOS.
EDIT: It is the same on Linux, maybe you flag your post for a moderator to move it to the MacOS section. -
@mib3berlin Known issue.
And same on Windows. Not a mac-only bug. -
@AN4LYST Is related to this reported bug VB-100186 "Dragging a tab out of stack opens new window" - Confirmed.
-
This error is still happening to me . MacOS (Sonoma 14.0).

@gniap
Hi, the bug VB-100186 is confirmed but not assigned to a developer or fixed.
I hope we get it tackled for Vivaldi 6.4.Cheers, mib

Hi @mib3berlin and @DoctorG
I am using Vivaldi 6.4 (6.4.3160.34 (Stable channel) (arm64) ) but the issue still exist. Do we have any update?
-
@AN4LYST Confirmed, no dev assigned, no fix yet.
-
Thank you for the quick response. Can we make this issue a higher priority?
-
@AN4LYST No, we have no influence on importance of a bug.
-
Ok, thanks
-
@AN4LYST When there exists a workaround, the bug does not get high priority for a fix.
Workaround you can get the tab out of a group by context menu or by move in Window Panel. -
How do you get a tab in a group then because trying to move a tab into a group causes the same issue and i dont see a workaround for that.
-
Hi, does anyone else has this issue? It started to me a week ago, but not sure if it's related to MacOS Sonoma updates, or browser. It's happening only on mac, when I click mouse on tab to activate it immediately moves to new window, that's very annoying
-
I also have the same issue on MacOS
-
yeah pretty annoying bug, so far the only workaround that I found is moving the tabs to the bottom
-
Has there been any resolution of this bug?
The impact to user experience is unacceptable... -

if you drag a tab outof tab-bar, it will into a new window. It's a featuer not a bug.
