Group Display Settings
Group Display Settings allow you to customize the visual appearance and behavior of tab groups in the sidebar, giving you control over how groups are presented and organized.
How to Access
- Go to Settings → Tabs → Advanced Tab Groups
- Find the various group display options
Display Customization Options
Show Website Icons When Collapsed

Collapsed Group Title Width
- Adjust the width of group titles when groups are collapsed.
Show Group Tab Count
- When enabled, displays the number of tabs within each group next to the group name.
Display Format: "Group Name (5)" where 5 is the tab count
