Open new windows in tabs
-
Hello everyone,
since the latest snapshot 1.8.770.25 I notice a different behaviour in my webmail client. Previously, when I composed a new mail, it opened the editor in a new maximized tab. Now, a real new window is opened.
I looked into the source, and it is done with Javascript: window.open(uri, "_blank","width=640,height=480,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes,status=yes");
However, I don't like web applications to open new windows, I prefer tabs. Is there an option to restore this old behaviour and open new windows in tabs again?
Btw, "vivaldi://settings/content -> Pop-ups" is of no use.
Regards

Does Settings --> Appearance --> tick the box for "Show Popups in Tabs" solve the issue for you?

yes, it's a long-awaited-by-many new feature in the latest snapshot
do as zaibon said, it returns to old behaviour -
Now this is really odd. Looks like a translation issue
I could not see that option in my language, or rather the translation was wrong for it.
The re-translation of the relevant setting in my language back into English is something like "Show preview thumbnails in tabs", which is hardly the same as "Show Popups in Tabs". So I switched the GUI language to English, and there it was.
That being said, thank you both very much for your help.
Btw, the language I'm talking of is German.

@Turandot Just had a look at it and have to admit that you're right. The translation is indeed misleading. But the issue is already addressed in the german translation forum
