      @pavelopdev It seems that 'Workspaces' feature in Opera does replace the tabs grouping/stacking.

        @andrew84 Hmmm, both yes, and no. I'm searching possibilities on this topic yet. Look at the tiers:

        Tier 0 (top down scheme)
        Operating System level (Win & Lin) - a lot of Desktops.

        Tier 1
        Opera windows on one or many screens (e.g. many monitors)

        Tier 2
        Opera Workspaces in every Opera window.

        Tier 4
        Many Bookmarks bars tied with Workspaces (requested)

        Tier 5
        a) Speed Dial folders (via Save all tabs as Speed Dial folder)
        b) Session Manager via extensions or embedded (as in Vivaldi)
        c) Folders in Bookmarks bar with drop down tree structures (or lists)

        Here comes Tier 3
        Stacked tabs

        Everything you turn into your advantage is limited by 1) your resources, 2) your imagination, 3) your experience or abilities to create efficient work environment.

        That's why I still have mixed feelings about implementing Opera 12 stack tabs feature, having ready at hand the wonderful workspaces and the broader/deeper look into the semi/quasi stack tools I described above.

        Staked tabs are old/new hype in this world of prevailing IT fads. For me most of the web browsers' users have no skill to make the most of what they have already at their fingertips, but I may be wrong.

        P.S. Where is the (in)famous Tags field? I cannot find it.

          Wrong layout of Sidebar Setup window

          1. After entering Tutorials the Sidebar separator is placed over Tutorial icon, but it should be moved below.

          2. Sidebar Extensions part needs to be after Custom site panels.

          See the Fig.1.

          [Fig. 1] This picture has a trifle omission - moving the blue contents where the blue arrow points will leave two separators. 🙂 Pay attention to that.

            Re: Site panels from Sidebar opens windows wrongly

            It suffices to reload the pages opened from Sidebar's Custom Site panels to correct those errors - the right icons will start to represent corresponding pages.

              *Suggestion (this will save space on the sidebar and will improve the custom sites feature's functionality significantly):

              Instead of 5 custom sites in the sidebar I'd prefer 1 predefined custom panel (a web panel, similarly to this extension https://addons.opera.com/en/extensions/details/web-panel/)

              The panel has bookmarks bar dropdown.

              Of course, in Opera there also can be quickly accessible bookmarks (aka mini bookmarks bar)
              2020-11-28_190500.png

              This panel also has the following buttons at the bottom (open web panel page in new browser tab and open current browser tab in web panel)

              +previous suggestion regarding the context menu 'search in panel' feature like in Edge chromium -> https://forums.opera.com/post/228116

                DNA-89954 [Bookmarks bar] tooltips inside the folder have wrong mode

                Finally. Tooltips in bookmarks bar folders are dark now (reported many times).

                I still hope too see an adequate highlighting effect instead of the bright white, in dark mode. Taking into account that bookmarks items in the sidebar panel have this.
                alt text

                *also, I guess that link's tooltip (bottom left corner) should be dark too in dark mode (like in Chrome/Edge)

                  I still have suggestion regarding the 2 user defined wallpapers for auto-switching when turning the dark theme on/off.
                  Currently it works only with the Reborn3's circles wallpapers
                  2020-11-29_024406.png

                  For example I want to select these 2 wallpapers for 'auto-switching' instead of the circles.

                        It would be really, really nice if the latest version of Opera can fix https://forums.opera.com/topic/37582/bug-opera-won-t-check-for-updates-invalid-params-and-unable-to-prepare-update-checker-runtime/76?_=1606766168901
