That's interesting. Hopefully they see this thread and - rubbish implementation or not - can at least copy and paste those a few more times so we have a more useable limit!

It's a shame because it's such a great feature otherwise.

Okay, just another thing on this topic:

Maybe we can start from having more icons to choose?
There is a "food" and a "plane" icon, yeah - nice. But maybe I'm a music producer and need to have a "music" icon? What with people who are doing different stuff?

This is so great! Thanks Opera. you're the best browser I have ever used! Off: One thing missing is the translation of the site. If Opera has it, I would never use Google Chrome or Edge to translate sites.

Thank You

It's a piece of wonderful news.
Especially because of fact, that we've been heard.
That's why I still consider Opera as the best browser to work with.

When might this be added to Opera GX?

With the developer version 74, I was able to create 24 workspace, as many as the number of predefined icons. Promising.

@roti-0 Sorry to revivify this old thread, but I'm looking to create more than 5 workspaces with Developer v.74 -- When I click the "add more" workspaces button in the Sidebar setup, it just force-renames one of the existing 5 that I already have. Nothing I can find or do will create more than 5 Workspace tabs. Does anyone know the exact procedure whereby one creates Workspaces #6-24? Any help would be highly regarded! :^)

@jhjones Update to a current version, 74 is too old.

@jhjones This fix has even already made it to the regular public branch, I've been rocking 7 workspaces for a few weeks now. (Thanks devs!)

@sgunhouse Hm, I'm using 75 and just tried to add a sixth. It just overwrote my fifth one. I still can't get more than five.

Yeah, same problem here. I'm on Opera 77, and when I try to create another workspace, it just rename one of the five workspaces.

@dante003 Is there any update about getting this in Opera GX? I'm stuck at 9 workspaces, and having max workspaces would be quite helpful in many circumstances.

@jacesvg Hi! I had the same issue. I just opened the tab manager, disable tabs, reenable tabs and after it let me create new tabs. Seemed something related to old config. Im using Opera GX but i think is the same code base. Hope to be useful

I'm on Opera GX 85, but still limited to 5 workspaces. Trying to add more just renames one of the existing ones, as reported by @pumkin54 and @dante003.

@antiqueantelope Just tested in LVL3 (core: 85.0.4341.72), I was able to create 6 workspaces.
