Corner Rounding in Themes Should Respect its Setting

In my theme, the setting is at the maximum of 14pix, but the setting is not respected on the tabs, nor on the speed dial thumbnails, where it is most needed, but it is respected on the New Tab button, and on the Speed Dial Titles.

Agree - the rounding seems to be strongest in the places I least want it!

In Opera 12 there was a great feature called "blocked content", where you could enter URL's that where not loaded. I Think this is a very important feature and I'm looking forward to see this in Vivaldi.
If one would go a step further there may be lists of url's (to be used in "blocked content") for different usages - which could be attended by user groups (e.g. "no porn", "no ads", ...) - i think plug-ins for this purpose are not (open) enough

The login username/password stored by vivaldi sometimes needs a third field to be stored.
There are some webpages which need a third field and this is always NOT filled out by vivaldi
(e.g. if a url needs to have username, id and password, I just get the entries for username and password auto-filled and have to type in the id each time I want to log in).
Opera 12 was storing the third field correctly.

I'd like to see a setting "don't load objects that are smaller than #px" where "#" can be entered or selected.

@imp666 But this might screw up websites depending on your scroll level - or am i mistaken?

But whyyyyy?.....

This string (and some others) should be reworded or checkbox should be moved into group caption.

One of the suggestions:

"Enabled" => VB-21073 again and again...

@zaibon - yes, if you don't know what you're doing it may screw them up.
BUT if you know what you're doing you may really speed up website loading and remove a lot of spam and unwanted content or tracking

Links panel as in Opera 12.17, so we can

search links on a page
copy all selected link addresses
download all selected files
open all selected links in new tabs
copy selected link titles (not in opera 12.17 but would be nice to have)

@JuniorSilva30 in the meantime, there is a chrome extension that might work. It's called "snooze tabs" as well.

I did not know this extension, it seems very interesting, I'll test it here! Thanks for sharing!

@henrypijames I have to agree.
Absence of download speed information is one of a few BASIC things that really bothers me.

@Pesala said in Feature requests for 1.8 / 1.9:

It's unlikely to be accurate

No. It's exactly the opposite. Download speed is more accurate than the "estimated time information". Estimated time is very inaccurate in web browsers. Information, that something will be downloaded "in a few minutes/seconds" tells you nothing exact and accurate but the estimation from a crystal ball.

Did you know, that estimated download time is calculated exactly from the download speed?
Imagine driving a car. If you would like to know how long will take you travel from point A to point B, you need to know:

Speed
Distance (equivalent to file size)

Basic physics.
Also driving with a speedometer replaced by an estimator of time of travel would be quite odd...

Too_many_browsers

A GO button please …
A BUTTON / ARROW to kick the keyed address into action – repeatedly ?
I might be on an internet page and from there want to drill into multiple further links, I want to open the same page several times and drill a different route from each – then compare the result, jumping between tabs.

As a “new” address opens a new tab, this change would be an obvious improvement …

Source code editor like Opera 12.17

Syntax highlighting, apply changes, or choose external editor .

Merge the Triangle and Folder Icons in Bookmarks Panel

We don't need two icons here: Replace the Right/Down triangle icons with the Closed/Open Folder icons, and use single-click on the icon to open or close the folder. As now, click once on the folder name to select it, click again to rename it.

Pesala

@Guilimote Also very useful in Opera 12.17 to expand/collapse bookmark panel folders.

Picture in picture mode

The last version of Opera has an option of video pip, as it's shown here: https://youtu.be/9tfgqKBbJn0?t=1m2s.
I would like a feature like that in Vivaldi, so I wouldn't need to do this manually, moving a tab to the side of the window. Is there any chance for this feature to be implemented?

I have another suggestion: to open a new tab side by side of the active tab, so I wouldn't need to select them and manually select the option to put them side by side.
