How to use Tab Islands in Opera One Browser

How about those of us who have lots of open tabs, don't want to use islands and were very happy with the scrollable tab bar?
I know we can reenable it in settings but it' practically unusable in Opera One:
- It won't automatically scroll when you open a new tab
- When you drag a tab to reposition it, where it ends up is a mistery becaouse Opera One won't show you where you're dropping it
For these reasons I had to donwgrade (again) to Opera Beta 99 for my personal use.
I do use Opera One Stable for work related issues, I don't have so many tabs open so I just disabled Islands but I really miss scrollable tab bar as I still have enough open tabs to make their favicons pretty small
That and the new tab bar which is very space inefficient compared with previous versions. -

@hm55: did you consider turning off the automatic creation of islands in the settings-bar?

Please bring back the "X" to close individual tabs on touch screen. They disappeared when I installed Opera One, and the context menu can be tricky to use in touch mode. if this isn't fixed soon, I'm going to have to change to an older version of Opera or use a different browser. This change to Opera One should have had a lot more user testing. This is extremely disruptive. I do not want to use islands with my current project, and the tab problems have sevrrely impacted workflow.

these tab islands are terrible for my usage. How do I turn them off or roll back to a previous version of opera?

great feature, helps me to quickly find the needed tab, meanwhile doesn't make me to put effort into manual tab grouping

Before the update:
If we had lots of opened tabs we could still see the "X" button when we hover over a tab.After the update:
But after the update, it doesn't show the "X" button when there are lots of open tabs even we hover over a tab. -

@shayan-01 FYI middle mouse button (or press the mouse scroll) closes a tab

An "afraid-to-close-tabs user"? Hahaha... You are the best!! Just what I needed.

I was experimenting the same confusion that most people here (If ain't broken, don't fix it!) and all I had to do was turning this complicated and unnecesary islands off and then access the opera://flags menu to get my scrolling bar back again.
I hope it helps! -

@ryanbreed Thank you, I didn't know this. But I'm not comfortable with this solution.
Opera browser's UI is the best in my opinion and I expect it to be perfect. -

haakan last edited byWell, well, well... I think Tab Islands could be useful...if we can combine them with workspaces and tab strip scrolling.
I'm the kind of user who carries multiple tasks at time so I have like 100-200 tabs open. I appreciate the feature.

How do you turn Tab Islands off?
Never asked for them, didn't want them.
Was surprised when everything turned into Tab Islands!
And, what's this garbage? Just to ask a question? JHC!

Is there a way to change the colour handles? There should be, these default colours are upsetting me.
