Yannick Heck yeah

This is such a core expectation now from using Arc that this alone may get me to try Orion again.

    I haven't seen this on the release candidate build yet, unless there is a setting I need to turn on?

      RC builds do not have it just yet. I've been testing it on a dev build for the past day and it is quite polished already. Expect to see it on -rc soon!

        Oh wow, is this really going to be implemented?? I can't wait! Hopefully soon on RC!

          laiz I really appreciate this! I cannot overstate how this is important feature to me. I like Vertical Tabs because I have LOTS of tabs opened at once and in horizontal view, you cant see anything.

          The downside of vertical tabs is that it takes too much real estate of the web view. Chromium-based browsed have had this auto show/close for some time hence why I used those browsers (brave, arc).

          So this feature means a return to Orion for me! And if it really it smoothes out everything, it will ve a good time to purchase that lifetime license. I had some issues where Orion RC was freezing often when coming from suspended state (when I wake up Macbook), but cant reproduce steps. Nevertheless, this thread is about tabs and I am happy for the feature!

            This will entail modifying the display of vertical tabs to automaticallly collapse as they do in Zen Browser, only when hovering over the left side of the screen then they should appear to leave more space for browsing without the vertical tabs showing all the time

            Collapsible vertical tabs can provide a more clean experience and less clutter as Zen Browser does. When hovering over the left side of the screen the vertical tabs show with only a thin bar showing only the icons. This is extremely useful when having multiple tabs and helps to concentrate on one page at a time.

                Please add a way to disable the auto-hide feature on the sidebar. When browsing pages that already have a sidebar navigation, the sidebar keeps jumping in the way (Version 0.99.131.2-rc (WebKit 621.1.2.111.4)).

                love to see progress on this, it already feels so much nicer to use orion with the sliding sidebar in the latest rc, the design and ux can be iterated on, but this is so nice, huge thanks!

                  No change ever makes everyone happy, it would seem! But further down, I'd love a way to disable the auto-hiding feature (as I currently don't use the sidebar at all). ♥

                  I don't understand why this feature would be introduced, turned on automaitcally for everyone, and not have a way to turn it off.

                    aexvir How do you enable the sliding sidebar? I do not see it in the RC? I am on the latest version!!

                        Right click the v at 1, and select Auto-show Sidebar
