Feature requests for 1.8 / 1.9

@stilgarwolf
In the meantime, you could also set up Vivaldi to delete cookies on exit, and add the trusted cookies to the white list using Site Preferences (by clicking the badge at the left of the URL, then site settings at the bottom of the popup, then manage exceptions in the cookie and local storage section).
That way, all cookies get automatically deleted when you're done, except the ones you want to keep.Note : item names translated from French UI, may be inaccurate
(I set up my Vivaldi this way, and also to block third-party cookies)
Two limits though :
- I'm unsure if it applies to local storage also (it probably does),
- It only deletes them at the end of the browsing session, not when you exit the site.
I agree the feature you requested would still be useful not to delete the trusted/white-listed storage when manually clearing data.

@IcePanther
I also did, but some of them are not deleted on exit, so I must delete them manually from vivaldi://settings/cookies or Menu->Tools->Clear private data.
Deleting cookies one by one works if you are patient, but deleting all means also deleting settings for duckduckgo.com and startpage.com. -
@compurandom
Thank you, I'll try it.
But a trusted browser must not rely on such options to deal with privacy/security issues. -
@Pesala Jep, sorry saw your answer too late so I posted my explanation anyway ^^
-
@compurandom
Vanilla cookies is not working (for me, with Vivaldi-64, at least): simply it does not delete unwanted cookies (and does not show it's icon in taskbar). -
The ability to move the Downloads button.
-
@compurandom You have to check "Enable Tab Selection" in vivaldi://settings/tabs/, under "Tab Selection" group. Then it should work as @zaibon described.
-
@stilgarwolf Do you block 3rd party cookies? If not, then cookies from domains you've never visited will keep reappearing...

@henrypijames said in Feature requests for 1.8 / 1.9:
Download speed is kind of an important piece of information.
I do not see it that way. It's unlikely to be accurate, and knowing the speed does nothing whatever to speed up the download. A rough estimate from the progress bar is more than enough. Just start a download, then get on with something else.
A warning if a download is still running when you try to exit might be useful.

Warning when you try to close the browser when is running download on background.

@pafflick
I assume the customization can be done by editing the css/javascript files, but if you can make this more accessible to the common user like the old opera had, that would be terrific. -
@pafflick Don't forget exporting any UI customizations we may have made. Obviously, this includes settings like color scheme and whether or not we've disabled fast-forward/rewind (just as an example). It also hopefully would include backing up the css/javascript files that style the browser in case we've made direct edits to change the browser appearance. The latter sort of depends on how the Vivaldi team wants to approach browser UI customization going forward (i.e. keep it in css files vs some proprietary solution).

@redlap This actually is possible right now but only via rightclick the tab you want "Bookmark Tab".
Sadly there is no shortcut or mouse gesture option for this at the moment. -
@redlap said in Feature requests for 1.8 / 1.9:
Why not use that in combination with moving the mouse up and down to zoom in and out?
Because if you release the MMB it enables fast scrolling.
Hold down the control key to zoom in/out.

@pafflick
I did. No success.
It may be not a bug, but a (forever tracking) "feature" in Chromium by Google. -
@stilgarwolf It's just that one cookie from Facebook that keeps reappearing regardless of whether you visited that site or not, or are there some cookies from other non-visited websites as well? I don't know if that would solve your problem, but I use Privacy Badger to block social plugins and other trackers on the websites that I visit...

uMatrix
uMatrix does not work with Vivaldi: options are not visible.
-
@stilgarwolf rightclick the extension icon --> choose options
-
@stilgarwolf works perfectly fine for me since a long time
-
Mark broken / successful downloads.
In case when Vivaldi know exactly the size of file being downloaded it should indicate somehow when download has failed / finished cleanly.
Currently it is impossible to distinguish the case when for example the server broke connection just by looking on file size...
It would be really helpful feature. -
@pafflick
Yes, is just that one, set last time I logged on facebook.
I'm using Privacy Badger also.
My post is merely a bug submission and a suggestion for chromium code (privacy related) audit.
