      I would like the vertical tabs in only one window for just that one set of tabs. The other windows would stay horizontal as usual. It is currently not possible.
      I think I will only use this feature if I cannot determine what is in a tab by mousing over it.
      The only problem I have with opera is opera playing videos when it starts up and I cannot find them. I have found a way to locate them but it still a chore. FYI: I usually have about 10+ opera windows open with about 8 - 60 tabs each

        @17misha: A keyboard shortcut is also needed to quickly switch between horizontal and vertical tab layouts.

        Why do you need a shortcut for switching? what makes you keep jumping frequently between vertical and horizontal tabs?

        I switched to vertical once and that's it!

            @funkyeuphemism: wouldn't a switch be an overkill? How many times do you switch everyday?

              I would like tab islands to show as a horizontal strip in vertical tab mode, rather than a named dedicated tab like they do (vertically) when tabs are horizontal, and the option when I hover the tab bar for ~3 seconds to temporarily expand to show names (as an overlay, not a proper expansion which would cause a layout shift on opened webpages), among other improvements to the feature. Such as a compact mod, with less padding around the favicons, and shrink the girth of the bar as a whole (I use them icon-only). Custom Favicons for pinned tabs would be nice too, but meh.

                The feature is incomplete. When using vertical tabs on MacOS, I can't drag to rearrange the tabs, which is a dealbreaker. Dragging a vertical tab up and down just makes it switch to the split view overlay, and no matter where I drop it, it turns into a new window instead of letting me rearrange the tabs.

                  I would like to request an option to unlock and adjust these panels so users can place them on either the left or the right side of the screen based on personal preference. Allowing this flexibility would greatly improve usability, screen space management, and accessibility for many users.
