Vertical Tabs look Good!

 

managed to get it on Edge Version 86.0.598.0 (Official build) canary (64-bit)

They are a little premature and basic, still need to evolve a lot.

but for now the tab previews work, tab grouping and colors work and the main button for switching between horizontal/vertical view works.

 

there is a big gap here which I don't understand why it's there. probably a placeholder for an upcoming feature.

 

 

overall I like it and looking forward to a more evolved experience from vertical tabs soon.

        That's Not the flag. just read the description. it's only about showing recently closed tabs in there, not to actually enable it.

      Vertical Tabs look awesome! I got them yesterday...

       

       

      This is a huge UI refresh from the horizontal tabs we use to have, and it's great. Themes applied from Chrome Web Store also get applied. Only thing is that we cannot get the sidebar when in full screen.

      It's controlled feature rollout. there is also a related flag but it won't force it to be enabled:
      edge://flags/#edge-swipe-to-shy-ui

        Thx for the hint on edge://flags/#edge-swipe-to-shy-ui 

        Although I still don't get the vertical tabs due to cfr, swiping in the toolbar on touch devices now finally works! It looks stable and smoothly moves in and out. Great, now we have a real functioning full screen experience on all devices, eventually.
