New Tab by Webdoka New Tab by Webdoka Help / Documentation

Visual bookmarks

Bookmarks on the new tab are cards: a page preview (or your own image) and a title. Change grid density with Size (+/−) and, when helpful, grouped view by folder.

Bookmark cards

Each bookmark is a card: a preview area (page image or your own) and a title line. Left-click the preview to open the site in a new tab.

  • Since extension v1.2.0 there is no separate “icons only” mode — every card uses the same preview layout.
  • The “Add bookmark” card at the end of the grid opens the add-by-URL dialog.

Where the preview image comes from

The extension picks an image in a fixed order — there is no “thumbnail / favicon” switch in the UI.

  • Your own image from Edit thumbnail (stored in IndexedDB).
  • A saved page screenshot on the bookmark (e.g. after add bookmark or Generate preview).
  • Auto preview from the URL (og:image and similar), cached; if none, a favicon fallback.
  • While a heavy image loads, the extension icon may show briefly as a placeholder.

Right click and actions

Right-click the card or the preview to open the context menu. Full item list and details are on the Card context menu help page.

  • In short: Open; File — only if a download is linked to the bookmark; Edit thumbnail; Generate preview (page screenshot from URL); Move; Delete.
  • Move: a folder list opens inside the menu (including Unassigned).
  • Close the menu by clicking outside or pressing Escape.

Grid density: size and groups

Use the Size (+/−) control to fit more or fewer cards on screen. For a folder-by-folder overview, turn on grouped view — see its help article.

  • The Size block on the top bar: − and + buttons; the value is saved.
  • You can reorder cards inside a folder by drag and drop where enabled (see Drag & Drop).

Summary

  • Visual bookmarks are cards with one preview style and a title.
  • The image follows: custom thumbnail → stored screenshot → auto preview from URL → favicon fallback.
  • Grid density comes from scale and grouped view; bookmark actions are in the right-click context menu.
