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 browsers use a horizontal bar to display open web pages in tabs. Vertical tab logic was introduced as an extension, such as e.g. 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 since it prevails over the vertical one. Especially if a widescreen or high-resolution screen is used. The vertical space είναι μικρότερος σε σχέση με τον οριζόντιο και έτσι δέχεται παραπάνω tabs. Οι κατακόρυφες καρτέλες προσφέρουν άλλα πλεονεκτήματα, καθώς είναι δυνατό να δείτε ταυτόχρονα περισσότερες ανοιχτές καρτέλες χωρίς να κάνετε συνέχεια κλικς και έτσι να έχετε ευκολότερη διαχείριση καρτελών.
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: its users Microsoft Edge (based on Chromium) will soon be able to choose between horizontal and vertical tabs in the browser. All it takes is one click to change the screen and either display open tabs vertically or horizontally in the browser.
The company in its article 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, maybe you should see them pictures to Microsoft's article to understand how the new features will work.
