      I want to be able to close the island with a middle click like a normal tab.

      If I open a few new pages from a single source (thus creating an island) I often want to get rid of them after I am done with whatever lead to them being open. I don't want to focus on the context menu and search for the close button (which could at least have an X icon so I don't have to read the options as I don't see that good)..

      I want to quickly middle click on the colored bar of the island and presto, tabs and island gone.

        This!! The workspaces animation is awful. Completely Unnecesary, and it should be togglable.

          @weirdtuned Totally agreed!

          This "island" update is worst change since moving to Chromium engine.
          Even Lucid mode fail has been quickly fixed after feedback..
          I don't know what the Opera dev team was thinking when they added these "islands" to the main content area?

          So my suggestion to Opera team: if you so thirsty and wanna add tab islands, add Tabs islands only. With option to completely disable this feature, not just to "automatically create tab islands".
          Leave all other areas untouched.
          We do not need content-island, bookmark-island or any other "island" on other places..

          And what is is? Just ridicilous

            @lehuspohus That! All of it! The new design is terrible and difficult to read. Rounded corners make the tab titles hard to read. I ended up having to copy and paste tab urls to a different browser altogether.

              @leocg I did disable it in Settings when my tabs were still open. It did nothing. Had to close all of them, clear the browser data, then restart the browser to actually get rid of the islands. I don't like islands or animations being on by default for updates or fresh installs.

                @supasnoop As the name says, the setting is for enable/disable the automatic creation of tabs islands. It won't remove the islands that were already created and won't avoid the manual creation of islands.

                  Before the update when using touch screen I used to be able to tap a tab for the "x" to appear so I could close a tab. Now I have to hover over tab with mouse or trackpad to get the "x" to show up. Can this be fixed so I can easily close tabs while using touch screen?

                    Hey!
                    Sometimes I close the new island feature by mistake while a video is playing so it's a little bit harder to find which one of them, espacially if you have a lot of tabs and islands.
                    Here is an example I did!
                    Adding it would be awesome.
                    Thank you! ☺

                      Bring back the quickmenu button that was next to the search bar and the refresh button. It was such a good button, bring it back!
                      And secondly make on the tabs "x" button larger, because right now it is a pain to close the tabs with such a little "x"!

                        Tab management is a disaster. I feel like someone came to my desk unasked and made a mess out of it. Why couldn't this have been an option for those who are interested? I was working on something with many tabs open, you wrecked it for me.

                          The browser can no longer be used properly in touch mode. where is the "x" to close the tabs?
