No time to rest. Vivaldi 1.1 is here with enhanced tab handling, better hibernation and more!
-
What about greying/blurring out those tabs? Not sure how this would work with the various appearance settings though. Seems most logical to me and easy to see in your peripheral vision.
Alternatively, what if they were squashed to pinned-tab size, but remained in their current position?
-
Same here. Quite annoying if you want to use it for email and notifications/facebook.
-
This is annoying for me too, I really dislike the current implementation. Accordingly I've filed a 'bug' for this feature request:
VB-15752(edit: sorry, can't delete redundant post)

I think the problem that the tab cycler in O12 solved was this: in old Opera we learned to cycle tabs in recently used order, but this introduced the issue of the tabs in the tab bar now being out of sequence, such that if you scroll through tabs a la Chrome, the tab focus jumps around in a seemingly erratic fashion. The tab cycler wasn't a permanent visual feature, and so the order could freely change and thus remain in recently used order, with most recent at the top.
The problems for me with the new implementation are these:
- the cycled tab thumbnails move, rather than the focus moving through the sequence
- the thumbnails are large; this is disorientating
- the thumbnails are not loaded for hibernated tabs, so are useless (or bug?)
- the centrally located tab title (which I use to feel my way through with) flashes in front of you while you hunt for the wanted tab, changing according to the current focus
- you can only see 5 thumbnails at once (or 4…I have a new standalone installation with 4 for some reason), which limits your scope if you're looking for a long lot tab at the bottom of the list
- the tab thumbnails are horizontally arranged (this is the primary cause of most problems above!), while text is written left to right, so are not optimised for tab titles.
However! I think the modern cycler looks really nice, and mirrors the way alt+tab works in Windows (almost! you can still see all open windows with alt+tab), and I'm sure I'm in a minority of users who want this feature in Vivaldi. In any case I've filed a 'bug' feature request:
VB-15752
-
I just tried a new window (and restarted) with few tabs and hangs still happen on one PC. :-(.
-
I'm getting the page hangs (Win x64).
-
There is a bug when is pressed ctrl+t from "Developer tools", if I do that, Google Chrome's page is opened:

What do you think of the "Window" menu item?
-
This is exactly what I'm waiting for as well.

In both Vivaldi and O12, you can set your tab cycler to cycler through tabs in tab bar order instead of recently used order, which is much easier. Couple that with O12's vertical tab list cycler, where you'd get a list of the tabs instead of just thumbnails, and the thumbnails are optional, you'd basically see the list of tabs you have right there with their favicons, and that makes it super easy to use and very friendly! That's part of why I'd like Vivaldi to imitate it. I also want to use my own custom shortcuts for it, but like I said earlier, it'd be so convenient for Vivaldi right now because you can skip tabs in the tab cycler in tab bar order, and some tabs you'd want to skip are hibernated, so using a keyboard shortcut for that would be faster, especially in a vertical list like O12.

Yes, page loading is still lagging on my laptop even with a brand new session.
At least having a new session with very few tabs makes the other UI stuff like the panel fast again…
-
thanks for the option to disable close button on tabs, i was not able to ever disable it on other chromium browsers, was driving me nuts when using them, sometimes felt like pixel hunting on those old sierra games, not anymore

Migrated these days my stuff from xubuntu 12.04 to 16.04 (clean install) and tried to put the vivaldi 1.1 on it. First thing after download via Firefox: the .deb file was opened with some application named "software", which seemed to open the .deb and presented a button named 'install'.
Well, hitting this button didn't seem to do anything.So I opened the terminal, changed to the download-directory and hit
sudo dpkg -i name-of-the-vivaldi.deb
This did the trick. But this means, many people I know would probably have given up at that point.
Now I'm testing and it seems to run just fine.

I am missing some keybindings:
-
vivaldi://settings/content can not be activated via Keyboard, only by clicking on the security-info in adressbar and then Settings.
-
when calling Settings-Page via Alt-P or menue I can not leave this dialog via keyboard. Esc or Alt-P or Ctrl-W do not work as expected
(Using: Snapshot 1.1.453.45 - Vivaldi 1.1RC3, Win8.1x64)
-
-
"Emulation" tab is not present in Developer Tools
-
That's exactly how I would want the tab cycler to look, except arranged in recently used order, not tab order, and accessible via ctrl+tab, and centrally positioned not off somewhere else where I'm not looking (as in current Opera). Quick Commands is great in that sense. As is it's essentially useless to me (the window menu).
-
greying and / or blurring sounds great. I think making them small like pinned tabs might be confusing when a lot of tabs are opened
-
Okay nevermind I found out what yuo mean, and I have no idea how to delete them
-
Please incorporate download speed to a download sidebar in a way old Opera used to have. Its such a basic function, really, dont understand whats holding you back on this
Thank you

Alt F4 works as expected.
