Favorites of workspaces set in a vertical menu instead of the favorites bar

Question

Hello! My favorites in my workspaces on Edge are somehow set to display in a kind of vertical menu on the left side of the screen (as in the image), opened on the workspace icon, instead of being arranged on the horizontal favorites bar. How did I do this? lol And how do I undo it (if I want to)?

Another question is about the workspace color: why ain't the workspace toolbar set with the color set for the workspace (like purple, instead of green on the image)? Is it another inadvertent configuration or is it a new standard set for the new version?

Hi @Fernando Rocha,

Unfortunately, this is a new design of Edge Workspace that workspace favorites will be stored in a separate folder, so it was expected you found them in a vertical dropdown menu.

However, currently there's no settings to control this behavior. If you prefer the traditional design of workspace favorites displayed in the horizontal favorites bar, please send feedback to the Edge Dev Team. You can leave feedback by clicking the Like or Dislike button at the bottom of the Edge Workspace menu. These buttons are next to the question "Are you satisfied with Workspaces?".

It is a good idea to set the workspace toolbar color according to workspace color, but currently it is not supported. The toolbar color follows the Theme settings in edge://settings/appearance. You can also request that design by sending feedback. Hopefully we can have it in the future releases.
