Microsoft yesterday announced the new features of the Edge that will come in future releases. One of them is called a vertical tab and the first to get it will be internal users.
All modern programs browsers use a horizontal bar to display open web pages in tabs. The vertical tab logic was introduced as an extension, such as the Tab Mix Plus extension for Firefox. It seems that the time has come for vertical tabs to become a permanent feature, starting with Edge.
Of course the horizontal line with the tabs will not be lost as it is superior to the vertical. Especially if widescreen or high resolution is used. The vertical space is smaller than the horizontal and thus accepts more tabs. Vertical tabs offer other advantages, as it is possible to see more open tabs at the same time without constantly clicking, making it easier to manage tabs.
Microsoft has published a new article entitled "Top 10 Reasons to Switch to the New Microsoft Edge BrowserTo highlight some of the existing and upcoming Edge features. Vertical tabs are highlighted as the second of ten reasons to change your browser.
In other words: Microsoft Edge (Chromium-based) users will soon be able to choose between horizontal and vertical tabs in the browser. All it takes is a click to change the screen and either display the open tabs vertically or horizontally in the browser.
Η company in her article she posted a short GIF showing vertical tabs appearing on the left side of the screen with functions like drag and drop. And since a picture is worth a thousand words, you might have to look at the pictures in Microsoft's article to understand how the new features will work.
Microsoft plans to introduce the mode of vertical tabs in the coming months on the Insider channel. From there, it will find its way into the stable version of the Microsoft Edge browser.
The company in the same article also highlighted another handy feature coming soon: smart copy (smart copy). Το έξυπνο αντίγραφο “διευκολύνει την επιλογή, αντιγραφή και επικόλληση του ακριβούς περιεχομένου που θέλετε από τον ιστό, διατηρώντας την μορφή του”. Επίσης επερχόμενα χαρακτηριστικά είναι τα: ένας έλεγχος του κωδικού πρόσβασης που θα σας προτρέπει να τον αλλάξετε αν ο κωδικός βρέθηκε σε παραβιάσεις και βελτιώσεις στην ανώνυμη περιήγηση.
