Opttab gives you a central place to see, sort, and act on every open tab without switching back and forth between windows. Whether you have five tabs or fifty, the tab management panel keeps everything accessible and organized so you can stay focused on what matters.

​
The Opttab panel

To open the Opttab panel, click the Opttab icon in your browser toolbar or press the keyboard shortcut (Ctrl+Shift+Space on Windows/Linux, Cmd+Shift+Space on macOS). The panel slides open on the side of your browser and shows all your open tabs, organized by workspace. Tabs that don’t belong to any workspace appear in an Ungrouped section at the bottom.

​
Grouping tabs

To move a tab into a workspace, drag it from the panel list and drop it onto the workspace name in the sidebar. If you prefer using the keyboard or mouse menu, right-click any tab in the panel and select Move to workspace, then choose the target workspace from the submenu. You can move multiple tabs at once by holding Shift or Ctrl/Cmd to select them before dragging or right-clicking.

​
Pinning important tabs

Pinning a tab keeps it in your panel even after you close a workspace session. To pin a tab, right-click it in the panel and select Pin tab, or hover over the tab and click the pin icon that appears. Pinned tabs are marked with a pin icon and stay visible at the top of their workspace until you explicitly unpin them.

​
Closing tabs from the panel

You can close any tab without navigating away from your current page. Hover over a tab in the Opttab panel and click the X button that appears on the right side of the row. The tab closes immediately and is removed from the list. This lets you clean up tabs in bulk without interrupting your workflow.

​
Sorting and filtering tabs

Use the sort and filter controls at the top of the panel to find tabs faster:
  • Sort by title — alphabetically orders all tabs in the current view.
  • Sort by domain — groups tabs from the same site together.
  • Sort by most recently used — surfaces the tabs you’ve switched to most recently.
  • Filter by keyword — type in the filter box to narrow the list to tabs whose title or URL contains your search term.
Sorting and filtering apply within the currently selected workspace view, so you can focus on just the tabs that are relevant to what you’re doing.

​
Tab groups

Opttab supports color-coded tab groups to visually organize related pages within a workspace. To create a tab group, select two or more tabs in the panel, right-click, and choose Group selected tabs. You can assign a color and a label to the group. The color appears as a stripe beside each grouped tab in the panel, making it easy to scan for related content at a glance.
Right-click any tab in the panel for a context menu with quick actions like Move to workspace, Duplicate, or Copy URL. This is the fastest way to act on a tab without opening it first.
