I have used Firefox for many years and really love the vertical tab tree. Now I want to switch to Google Chrome and read they are working on a vertical tab bar too.

How can I get this to work?

PS: The vertical Tab Bar extension is not appropriate because it doesn't replace the normal tab bar.

Edit: installed development version 6.0.466.0 dev.

  • They are working on it, so it probably is not finished yet. Maybe you could try Chromium (the developer version of Chroem) to see if it has it implemented. Besides the extension I don't know of any way to do this...

  • The instructions to make that work are on that forum. I can't guarantee that it'll work for you, but it's worth a shot...

  • Oh sorry. Well... it's not really vertical, it's like a feature show off. Won't even worth the try.

I am currently using Chrome 6.0.466.0.

To enable "vertical tabs" you have to add

--enable-vertical-tabs

Right click onto a tab and select Use side tabs.
