@andrefernando said in Tab Split Screen:

I was amazed by the convenience of tab division in Vivaldi

Edge has the feature as well.

@andrew84, Yes, this feature works very well in Edge as well, so I believe it wouldn't be difficult for Opera developers to implement something similar (or maybe even better).

I really liked the layout and position of the links in the address bar, the feature works really well in Edge.

Now it's just a matter of hoping that they implement this in Opera.

@andrefernando Yes, there's also option how to open links.

The thing I didn't like is that there are borders (and quite thick) appearing around the opened pages.

*I also like the Edge's UI in overall (including dark theme). But, unfortunately, it seems that there will be content border also soon.

"Split Screen View" feature is there as "Experimental feature". To Enable it, open a new tab and go to - opera://flags. Then search for "split screen" and enable it. Restart the browser.

Then, press Ctrl and select the 2 tabs. Right-Click on the tabs and select "Create split screen".

Well, you can work with it, but it's far from perfect yet. For some reason, it gives you three address bars.

@theselfmade - Yes even i noticed it and it confused me. Also there are some usability issues. Its time now that this feature be added to "Main Setting" so that all people can use it and suggest improvements.

Even Edge has this feature as Primary feature.

@epsilonniner It's because you are in Opera GX. I don't remember if GX has the split screen flag

I just started using the split screen function, I love it. I wondered if there was an option to bookmark tabs that are in split screen so that they would always open in splitscreen mode directly.
