This week has been a very successful one for us, with the release of the 1.5 final but we have not let up. Today we have 20+ new fixes for you and a very interesting new feature related to tab management. We also did some work on our startup procedure and would love to hear feedback on if you notice any difference.
Tab selection by domain
One of my favourite things about Vivaldi is tab management. Today we have made things even easier. Consider you’re reading your online newspaper of choice and you open a bunch of interesting articles in new tabs, at some point things can get messy and you might want to tidy up your tab bar. From today’s build you can instantly select all tabs from the same domain by holding Ctrl (or ⌘ on macOS) and double clicking on one of the tabs.
With the related tabs selected, you can now easily tile them (see the right click menu), bookmark them, gather them into a stack, move them to a new window or if you are done with them, issue Ctrl+w to close them all at the same time!
