Collections Feature Request: Adding Multiple Tabs To Existing Collection
- DeletedApr 13, 2020
U-P_W77 I'm glad to hear that you're enjoying MS Edge and thanks for the great suggestion!
Our Collections team actually just added the ability to add all open tabs to a new Collections by right-clicking on a tab. (We recently announced this feature on our https://www.microsoftedgeinsider.com/en-us/whats-new I recognize that this doesn't yet allow you to add tabs to an existing Collection, but please give it a try and let us know what you think so far!
And I think our Collections team would love to hear this specific request, so feel free to submit detailed feedback through the browser. (That way they can keep all of the feedback together in one place.)Fawkes (they/them)

Oh yes I totally agree. So many people saying they miss the "Set tabs aside" feature, but actually collections are far better and its THE perfect feature for browsing.
I see this as the final problem of this feature. That if you have open more than few tabs adding them into an existing collection is a little inconvenient and what I sometimes do is to open all tabs from the existing collection and make a new collection with the new feature. That however is not ideal. So if you could add some way of adding multiple tabs into existing collection that would be perfect.
Dropdown checkbox of pages in current Edge window, within the collection window instead of the "+ Add current page" button would be very nice. And way similar of "Move tabs to another window" would be equally great.
Two more tiny issues for me are, that it would be very cool if there could be a dedicated button, perhaps next to the collections button which would put all tabs into new collection. I know its only one more click, but still. Would be nicer.
And the third thing I miss is multi-level (honestly think two-level would be enough) organizing of collection. That I would definitely use. If I could make group of collections and then have few collections in it (as it is with notebook in Onenote). To give an example for this. I am shopping for some bike parts. It would be cool If I could make Group of collections named Bike and within I would have collections like Saddles, Handlebars, etc.
Best Regards.
