Feature requests for 1.9 / 1.10

@julioc1984 I totally agree. Currently it is hard to find desired command in such large context menu.
If it's possible to create a custom submenu in Chromium context menu, this menu can be compacted by creating "Open Image in" submenu. And also Fullscreen feature can be removed from image, link and textarea context menus.

@pafflick said in Feature requests for 1.9 / 1.10:
Prevent media (audio/video) from auto-playing as a website permission
It could be achieved by blocking all flash content (already possible) and preventing HTML5 audio & video from launching without user's action (click-to-play).
With this feature, we would be able to blacklist/whitelist websites for playing media, just like we could do it with Notifications, Popups, Plugins, Location, Camera & other website permissions.
Adding to this:
Please implement click-to-play for all plug-ins !including! flash.The only current intermediate between "make millions of websites unusable" (always off) and "make your pc unusable by billions of websites" (always on) is a laugh: Let vivaldi decide both evils. Hopefully it is much better at this then Adobe!
To me personally, the only way to use flash is with full user control. And not just "per website" with white an blacklists (which would be terrible uncomfortable anyway), but "per plug-in", so I can enable exactly what I need when I need it, but do not have to fear that some infected advertisement or similar damages my system after auto starting. -
create a manage-system for suggestions
This, obviously, is not a suggestion for 1.9 itself, but for this plattform and the 1.9 launch:
Please stop using unmoderated, undocumented threads for suggestions. A vote system simply does not work in a flat view with hundreds of posts, as no one will read them all. I found technically the same popular suggestion (configurable menus) three times before finishing the second page. We need a simple tree structure and a moderator which moves misplaced repeats or, a lot better, a ticket based system with a search function that prompts any suggestee to look at existing suggestions.
Big bonus of the latter one: You can stop restarting from scratch with every versions. If you want to stay with thread based approachs, at least give status information of old suggestions. 99% of postings here are repeats that would be unecessary if one would know whether the suggestion was accepted/rejected/completely missed the last time. -
minimising of tabs
I am still missing an option to move though a stack of "oppened in background" tabs by closing OR NOT CLOSING them. While it is possible to shift back to the last used tab by clicking the currently used one, there is no way to jump to keep a task open for later use and continue working with the rest, because it will always pop back into the foreground when the next task is closed. Opera had a much better way to do this by allowing a task to get minimised.
(Though I would be happy enough to move a tab as far into the background as possible so that it will only show again after treating all other tabs, just like a newly "opened in background" tab would - but without changing the tabs place in the tab bar.) -
cascading bookmark menü
Some people (e.g. me) use a lot more bookmarks regularly than could be fit into a bar. So a bookmark bar or a bookmark sidepanel is just wasting my screen real estate and/or requiering a hell of a lot of clicks to navigate through folders. Cascading menüs which open subfolders on mouse over are much more convenient - which is why they have been the standard used literally anywhere in browser, applications, even operating systems for well over two decades. Everywhere except Vivaldi

Sorry for posting this reply in a wrong place. My answer was:
It's weird, i try right now, both with left and middle mouse button, but don't works. I'm on Linux Mint 18.1 (Cinnamon - 32bit)
and i was answering at this post:
@ugly You mean that doesn't work on you?
Because here in Linux/Debian sid amd64. Double Clicking empty tab bar area (behind plus sign) does open New Tab. Either it horizontal or vertical.@dLeon & Mid-click on tab bar to create new one too
-
Support smart zoom on macOS
Google Chrome dose actually

@dLeon Sorry I did not notice that

@opera6rules It is already on the list:
@Pesala said in Feature requests for 1.9 / 1.10:
Bookmark Menu
However, there is no limit to how many bookmarks can be made to fit on the Bookmarks Bar. It is simply a matter of how many top level folders you have, and how long their names are. Bookmark folders can be renamed, and branches of the tree can be pruned and grafted until all of your top level bookmark folders fit. Then you will get what you want, although you will have to waste some space with the Bookmarks Bar. (Set a shortcut like "b" to toggle it on/off easily.

Ability to use mouse gestures (history forward/backward) to navigate speed dial folders

Bookmark Tagging
I really wish it had a bookmark tagging system. I understand you can add nicknames or descriptions, and you can search for anything you have in the title, description, or nickname field.... but it isn't as neat or practical as I would like.
It also doesn't work as well as tags. If I search for a nickname I have set, it will also bring up completely unrelated bookmarks to what I searched just because that word happened to be in the url or page title. If it was a true tagging system, I could only pull up the tings I tagged with that word. Having thousands of bookmarks, this becomes an issue.
Tags also allow you to select from a pre-existing label you already have, which results in better organization. It would also allow you to have the same bookmark labeled in many different ways... where how Vivaldi is now? I need to have the same bookmark duplicated into several different folders in order to find it.... which is kind of annoying?
Yea, I can add nicknames to them all, but the above problem with nicknames occurs, and also, I am not able to select my bookmarks in a certain folder and apply a nickname to all of them at once. I have to manually type in the nickname for everything individually... I have way to many bookmarks to even begin manually sorting them this way. If tags were a thing I would be able to just apply the tags to all, or drag and drop the bookmarks on that tag I want it to have.
Tagging also, due to the fact that there will be a set list of what I have organized, will make it easier to remember what I need to search for to find something. Nicknames wont help me if I need to find a webpage about puppies if I nicknamed it as dogs. But if I see I have a dogs tag, I would obviously look there first.
Anyway, I really hope that Vivaldi can implement this feature. I feel like this browser is leagues ahead of other browsers and trying its best to include all the features other browsers stubbornly lack. I feel like this feature would be a good fit and draw more people to use it.
(Also I accidentally replied as topic I am sorry!!!)

An option to have lets say English User Interface, but having the dictionary on Danish or any other language.
-
Enable search fields for individual search engines as separate fields in the "Bookmarks Bar" (incl. "search in current page") this way you dont have to open a drop down every time you want to search with an engine other than your standard search engine. –> See screen shot
-
I'd like this feature to be an option, as I don't really like it myself:
Minimize tab by click (Click Active Tab to Switch to Previous Tab)Also, I'd like a way to save my settings, bookmarks, history, and other things that generate in the browser to several accounts, that way I'd be able to make an account for my 4chan lurking, and one for my work stuff, this would help me a lot by me not getting distracted, and not having things in my history I don't want to have there when at work or school.
-
Bring a function to show all links on the current web page to the side panel (last symbol on the screen shot) - helps a lot e.g. when downloading more than one picture from a gallery page.
-
@SIndberg you do know you can use the search engine nicknames in the omnibar? like typing 'g search' will search on google, and 'w search' will search on wikipedia. You can add your own search engines by right clicking on a search field, and pressing add as search engine.
-
Opera 12-like session restore on startup.
It would be great if Vivaldi could ask how to start every time you launch it. One way Opera 12's behaviour could be improved is, if restoring the previous session, to ask which windows to restore if there are multiple.
-
@RammsteinAM Yes, It would be perfect. Wish in next updates....

@julioc1984 wtf the icon of musicbee what's that?
Its the musicbee plugin "now playing to text file". I made a local html file with the output text.
But the icon webpanel of vivaldi in local pages doesn't work correctly.

Lock and unlock tab with PIN code.
You can lock any tab. When tab is locked then content is unreadable - is blurred. If tab is locked you must input PIN code for unlock. When you input correct PIN code, content is unlocked and readable.
For me it's very useful when you browse webpages in your work or home and you want to block access to opened cards for your familly or friends when they want to use your browser at once.
