Security updates and IME fixes – Vivaldi Browser snapshot 1.16.1206.3
-
Stylus and tempermonkey still cannot export settings
-
@gwen-dragon: thank you!
-
@pesala Everything happens when I'm logged in. My notes go crazy to this level that I had to automate deleting them because I got overwhelmed by dozens of copies everywhere. (I estimate that I deleted about 500+ items)
Looking at
vivaldi://sync
I guess that there are problems with properly reflecting changes over all of devices. Copies appear out of thin air and stay out of sync until moving them to different node (folder). And they got new IDs (higher than last created notes) -
@gwen-dragon Yes (
VB-40888
), but this is not a click-over-listed-steps problem so it probably won't be easy to reproduce. And as You know "unable to reproduce" ≈ "closed issue"I cannot find any pattern...
It happens with folders, single items, long notes, notes with and without captions, notes with and without attachements...Only common thing is that it happens just after syncing with server (and changing things on other computer before)
And sometimes new items are not reflected on other computers immediately. Like they wasn't noticed by mechanism that observes chenging stuff.
Sometimes result is one copy... sometimes 2.
I have no idea how items are matched by server / clients.
I tried to move doubled notes to trash and trying to remove them but new ones appear...
I also tried not to remove them but keep in Trash with hope that if matching ID is found so Vivaldi will find that note with this ID exists... But new notes got new IDs. Also creation date is random - some of them are copied but some of them got current date. -
VB-37387 is still a problem. takes 15 min before my (9) tabs load.
-
@rotfl do you have a space character or new line character at the start of any notes? That's what used to cause it for me until I removed those characters. It was to do with Vivaldi creating a note title from the first line of the note text.
Also, the only way to stop the chaos was to stop synchronisation on all devices, choose one as the base profile, delete the notes files in the user directory on the others, in the base profile (using Vivaldi UI) delete all clones of notes (and clear the trash!) but create/keep one with no blanks at the start of the text and a proper title in the panel index, synchronise that profile but clear your synchronisation data first while logging in, re-sync the other profiles again.
Yes, it was a pain...
If there are so many clones that it's hard to edit in the UI you could also move the base profile notes file, open it in a text editor and copy/paste text into new notes in Vivaldi.

What happened to "Show in File Manager" on the Download Panel Context Menu?
-
@pesala Oops, gone. File a bug. I'll confirm it. Emphasize that this is a regression, to boost it for the developers.
Edit: Nevermind. @threedog2 filed it and I confirmed it and boosted its priority.
-
@pesala It's not the context menu, but the magnifying glass on the right side of the panel has the tooltip "Show in file manager."
-
@aerogems Holycow. So it does.
-
I suggest to replace magnifying glass glyph with some kind of open folder
-
@mossman I got a few notes with spaces but there haven't been problems with them.
Same with\n
Also (as I remember) there was some fix around that.
Disconnect / wipe / reset scenario is not working too - I tested it on another group of machines.
As a result all of the notes have been cloned (every single one) on both of machines.
And I directly copied whole profile between machines before setting up sync again.
But there have been no new clones after that.Now I just use some Python script to check for duplicates and I am deleting it from Vivaldi UI...
IMO there is some problem with reflecting changes across devices / identifying notes.Maybe my case is about number of devices being synced?...
Some of the clones have filled
subject
field despite I didn't do it... -
@rotfl that's what I was saying - the cloning is to do with the subject field you see as a title in the panel.
I don't think any of these should be blank!
-
I can't open the menu in this version. What was some hotkey to open it? I ca't even check for update now.
-
@gwen-dragon Win7, V 1.16.1206.3
Thanks for Ctrl+M.
I mean it's the problem with V button. It doesn't work. When double clicked - restores maximization. When set to menu bar, the menu button (in the corner) also doesn't react, when clicked twice - browser crashes. Alt key works but I don't use it so I disabled it. -
@gregor it's a regression bug, I've reported it. Re-enable the alt key for menu, or the menu isn't reacting to mouse because of that.
-
@gregor: There is currently a bug where disabling alt key disables the menu, you'll have to enable it again for the menu to work. Double clicking the menu doesnt crash the browser, its a feature to close the browser

I'm pretty sure you used to be able to Ctrl+Select multiple tabs, then Detach them all at once via the QC "Detach tab" or the Mouse gesture for said. But now, it only detaches one tab.
Is this change:
- Intentional
- Accidental
- Evidence of LonM having bad memory as this functionality never actually existed
-
@lonm Bad memory, I think. Move (selected) tabs to new window will work for several tabs, but Quick Command or Shortcut for Detach Tab only detaches one tab. The same in 1.15
-
@pesala Thanks for pointing this out. Investigating a bit more, I think I was mis-remembering the ability to Ctrl+Select and then Drag the tabs with the mouse.
