      Hi,

      In the new Opera Developer version, there is the tab islands feature. When switching tab orders in a tab island, then when you move to "previous" / "next" tab thanks to ctrl + shift + tab / ctrl + tab shortcuts, you'll move to the next one based on the opening order, not the current order.

      Steps:

      • Open a website in tab A (current tab)
      • From this website open a page in a new tab (thanks to ctrl + click): let's say it's tab B
      • From this website open a page in a new tab (thanks to ctrl + click): let's say it's tab C
      • Switch tabs B and C so the tabs order is A, C, B
      • Select tab A
      • Press ctrl + tab

      Current result: tab B (third one) is selected.

      Expected result: tab C (second one) is selected.

      Is this the expected behavior please? Did I miss any configuration linked to this new feature?

      Thank you.

          @leocg , thanks for the test.
          I just tested again, and indeed it now behaves the expected way… 😲

          Sorry for this. I think this topic can be closed… 🙏
