      When is this going to be implemented?? For one migrating from chrome it is very very distracting to see horizontal list of bookmarks. I always open links from bookmark bar on newly created tab. For now I have disabled to show bookmark bar.

          One workaround that I've used off-and-on is simply to do this: open the Bookmarks tab by pressing Ctrl-Shift-B or the appropriate sidebar icon

          This takes one click just as clicking the New Tab (+) button in the tab bar.

          Either way, your Bookmarks are readily available to choose from. I prefer the Bookmarks tab over a new page with speed dials if I want to access any number of bookmarks that are not in my speed dial page because now I can type in a search for the appropriate bookmark at this point, also.

          There are certain bookmarks that I access most simply by typing the first few letters of the url for it; almost always what I'm searching for comes up immediately.

          All that said, if Opera offered the same behavior as the requestor/starter of this thread said, it would be a welcome addition to Opera.

          Carry on. ๐Ÿ™‚

            This is badly needed! KB shortcut is not enough - needs visual on/off ticker/button OR option to auto-open for new tabs or auto hover on/off when cursor reaches&stays a moment on bottom edge of top gui.

              One could just open the Bookmarks page/tab again by pressing Ctrl-Shift-B and then pin that tab. That way, bookmarks are easily accessible; in fact, pressing Ctrl-Shift-B again will take you right back to that pinned bookmark page/tab.

                Better yet: Reborn sidebar could do what sidebars usually do.

                We want to open panels from the sidebar, such as bookmarks, history, DLs, perhaps news too.

                Also web panels. Or at least one (1) web panel ๐Ÿ˜ƒ c'mon please.

                It's true that the heart menu is on the right side while Reborn sidebar is on left side.

                Perhaps right side also needs a "bar" ๐Ÿ˜ƒ ๐Ÿ˜ƒ ๐Ÿ˜ƒ aka MENU!!! I can't believe this there actually isn't a sidebar in Opera.

                Well there is: sidebar is for social media giant companies like FB and VK. Your sidebar was sold to them.

                For everything else is just a href menu ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

                            Almost 2020. Opera should add this simple feature: bookmarks only in Speed Dial

                              It is 2020, and show bookmarks only in Speed Dial is not here yet. ๐Ÿ™‚ It would be quite an usefull feature.

                                      Hello Opera community and Opera developers,

                                      I just wanted to add my support - please add the discussed functionality: show the bookmark bar in new tab (only) like in Chrome.

                                      Thanks!

                                          But that way you'll need an extra click, isn't it?

                                          Hmmm...
                                          I prefer an auto-hide Bookmarks bar.

                                          I use Command + T to open a new tab. Not that difficult at all. Command + W to close a window if needed.

                                            That way is good.

                                            On Vivaldi you can Open the Bookmarks from a launcher with F2 / โŒ˜ E without the needed to open a new tab before.

                                            Maybe Opera would use that idea in the future.
