Hello everybody.
As far I as I know, and if I´m not wrong, skinning of the Vivaldi menus is not possible due to limitations imposed by the use of the Chromium engine.
Has something changed about it? The white menus are not visually optimal to me, are difficult to distinguish from the background of most webpages.
Browser menus were traditionally light grey or similar and I think it was for very good reason.

@section31x said in HOW TO: make vivaldi open downloaded files automatically:
I don't want files opening automatically.
Nobody forces you, this functionality (if accessible, because it is already implemented) is optional and is by file type.
@section31x said:
It's probably a security risk and best to leave that option out.
The security of a program should not be at the expense of usability and comfort for the user.
In this case, moreover, this is a poor excuse. All the most popular browsers implement this function. Chromium, on which Vivaldi is based, has it.
I chose Vivaldi for its flexibility, despite its many bugs (which I trust will be solved little by little), and the freedom it allows the user. So I don't accept that such functionality is not implemented with the poor excuse of security.
Not all of us use Windows. And those who do have to be careful and/or use an antivirus.
Not allowing downloaded files to be automatically opened does not make it safer.
The management of that downloaded file is done by the operating system, not Vivaldi.
For example, .torrent files are downloaded to be opened with another program (by themselves they are useless), opening them automatically with the browser is, for me, essential.
Plus 1 for Newpipe.
You won't regret using it and it has some handy extra features like the ability to download the audio or video to a folder.
BTW. I have a 1-hit solution for the problem of advertising being out of control.
If those who show adverts are held liable for the content, and could be sued for giving you malware, displaying scam adverts or breaching your privacy, you would soon see webmasters and content makers suddenly become more involved in hand-picking their relationships with advertisers.
