Lighten up your Day with Vivaldi Browser

rstaub

Fifth mainstream release, and still no decent HTTP Referer support -> VB-18362
VB-11034.
A blocker for Opera 12.x replacement in my case.

After just a few minutes of using Vivaldi 1.5, I feel more comforted than ever in my choice of making Vivaldi my main browser. Congratulations Vivaldi team !

[Windows] Cannot set Vivaldi standalone as default browser on Windows 7 (VB-22104)

I'm not sure if this is a bug or a Youtube "feature": on mobile device, YouTube automatically pauses the video in background (like on any smartphone I think).
Anyway, Vivaldi let you choose between the mobile and desktop version of a website in a webpanel: right click on the web panel icon, and switch to "desktop version" –> the video should continue to play even in background

Yop, it is known bug. Just switch to Show Desktop version Then it works fine

Yep, very impressive! Nice work guys!

Personally, seeing that they have worked on tabs in 1.5, I now hope for enhancements in tab stack management (better and immediate visualization/selection of the stacked tabs, reorganization, easier stacking…)
For example, the way Opera 12 had to expand and minimize a tab stack was very clever, and much more efficient IMHO

I must be a damn fool, because I cannot find the 'hue button' in themes! As for the mail client: drop it! Stop trying and assigning valuable resources to something that it's just NOT necessary - do not overload the browser! Finally, thanks for a great piece of software - I cannot be considered as a great 'asset' to Vivaldi's growth, but rest assured that I'm doing my (not significant, I admit) part in spreading the word through my mail signatures, my colleagues in various companies & my friends! Keep up the good work!

Please add the following functions:
1. View the download speed, add sound or other indication when the download is complete.
2. In Tile pages concurrently scrolling of all pages in the keeping of certain keyboards etc.
3. Make controls (mouse gestures) for folders fast access (currently for the return of the folder you need to click on <<*Name Floder).
4. The option to customize icon extension field (background color, size, order etc.)
5. Supplement icons such as cut, paste, copy, and so on.
6. Add the possibility to catch and move the icons on Webpages panels and extension icons.
7. Add Sesion manager to the panel.
8. Add History manager to the panel.
9. The possibility of placing the panels up and down, not just left and right.
10. Portable version.
11. More option for right click on Extension icons, not only Hide button.
12. Customize speed dial Thumbnails and Folders.
13. Better History manager (something like Bookmarks manager) inside Speed dial's top bar.
14. Better Download manager (something like Bookmarks manager) inside Speed dial's top bar.
15. Export complete user profile (settings, bookmarks, webpages in panels, themes, background pictures, notes, paswords etc.) It would also as a backup. (I do not think the synchronization feature, because not everyone wants to keep their data on servers, but a full backup of your profile).
16. Add controls +/- on zoom in status bar (by moving the slider to set the desired values it is not as accurate and fast).
17. Hotkey or mouse gesture to Hide or Minimize browser.
18. More options for Web panels (show adress, set zoom, set value of separate wide)
19. Some extensions also make available for web pages located on Web panel (block advertisements in YT videos for example)

You use Stable or Snapshot version ?

nutcracker

version 1.5.658.42 (snapshot)
PS OK! I found it - it's in the new version, thanks!

Cqoicebordel

I totally agree with most of your list. There are bugs filed for most of it (and I filed some myself).
Just so you know, a portable version is already possible in all OSes. They may not be as easy to do as we want to, but it's there.
And at least two elements of your list are coming really, really soon (no, I won't say what…)

JanS.

For 16: you know you can click the 100% and edit the value for Zoom?

Next step in snapshots, vertical bookmar bar? Ideal for nowdays widescreen displays.

" As for the mail client: drop it! Stop trying and assigning valuable resources to something that it's just NOT necessary - do not overload the browser! "

Thanks for expressing your opinion on this topic but a large part of Vivaldi's current userbase does not share it.

"17. Hotkey or mouse gesture to Hide or Minimize browser."

Aka "Boss key"
