Vertical Tabs is now available

Maybe I'm wrong, but it seems like a copy paste of the recently introduced vertical tabs in Chrome.

Thanks for the update and the launch of vertical tabs. I'd also like the ability to hide tab bars, which was recently added to the Vivaldi browser.

The browser still crashes in split screen mode.

*Pls, fix the 'redesigned' search popup. it's not usable in current view.

vertical tabs suggestions:

• I guess the vertical tabs panel shouldn't be as high as the pinned sidebar (should be below the toolbar/bookmarks bar).

*Btw, it possible to achieve such layout by turning on 'autohide sidebar'.

• the vertical tabs pane should have pin/unpin option like in Edge. So when unpinned the narrow bar will be only shown (only favicons), on hover the pane will expand.

• expanded pane could contain search tabs field and recently closed dropdown button (like in Edge as well).

@vladbabinets The vertical tab strip is currently resizeable you can make it as small as the fav icon of the opened pages, is there a specific reason to why you would like to fully hide it?

I noticed that the start page favicon gets cut off a tiny bit when you shrink the vertical tab strip all the way.

@mohamedsalah: I meant horizontal mode. I'd hide it to save screen space.
