Chromium 67 update – Vivaldi Browser snapshot 1.16.1221.3

@pesala exactly. Use Tab Zoom defeats default zoom in some cases.

Experiencing a crash when attempting to click on any drop-down menu on any webpage on macOS (10.13.5).
-
@rsaeks Same here on macOS Sierra 10.12.6, even with a clean profile.
And see that thread:

@hlehyaric Thanks. FYI, the developers are aware of this crash and there are actually a bunch of ways that it can trigger... but they are all basically the same crash. The devs are (very) actively working on a fix.
-
@xyzzy Thanks for the info.

@newscpq: You know, stuff... Articles to sort through, piles of documentation when coding and debugging, more articles to sort through, random ideas half-abandoned...
But I get your point, for the last few years of using Vivaldi I kinda had to push myself to use bookmarks and Pocket more. Got down from 1000 tabs (plus 300-500 in other browsers). Still wasn't easy when everything was freaking slow – can't sort through tabs quikly if a tab takes 20 seconds to switch to (and opening tabs burns memory, and you have to restart the browser again – meaning more of those half hours waiting till UI gets responsive...). -

What I want is to install stable Vivaldi in C/Program Files/Vivaldi, and snapshot to C/Program Files/Vivaldi snapshot or whatever. Not to overwrite one version with another.
If you read the link I provided you will see you cannot install a standalone/snapshot in the Program Files folder along with your stable install due to an obvious conflict. May I suggest the "appdata\local" folder.

@xyzzy: It looks like these shortcuts finally work consistently. One of the most annoying bugs is finally fixed!

I've noticed that if I close V with any Google tabs open (GMail, Calendar, News, YouTube) that when I restart V, my hard drive hammers like crazy for about 30-45 seconds, and when those tabs return from the last session, my Google credentials are gone, and I have to re-login. Once I re-login to Google in one tab, the other tabs that had Google apps open seem to autoupdate, the favicon auto updates, and those other tabs refresh.
I've also noticed I used to have an option to allow V to run in the background - that now seems gone. Perhaps that has to do with all the hammering frenzied sounding hard drive activity upon startup.
Perhaps this Google behavior is adopted from Chromium, and is intended for my security?
Linux Mint 64 bit with 64 bit snapshot.

@jimtdi Cannot reproduce this on Linux Mint 18.3 64-bit. All Google stuff stays signed in all the time. 4 Google pages on one account, and GMail on two more accounts. Also stays logged in between machine sessions (shut down, power up, open Vivaldi, still logged in to Google pages.)
-
@g_bartsch: Hmmm? Only one other person experiencing this?
-
@g_bartsch People mix and match all kinds of OS components in Linux, of course. Mine is vanilla. Straight off the shelf.
-
@ayespy Well thank you for trying to reproduce this and confirming it doesn't happen to you. You don't use Hangouts per chance do you?
-
It seems there are no Facebook users here (my shame - I do use it). If someone posts with multiple pictures and you click on one it, that picture opens a new screen, and then you can click through all the images using the large arrow buttons that appear on either side of the image. In this snapshot the arrow buttons don't move the image to the next one.
-
@jimtdi Not on Linux. I will say this: I also left my keyring enabled, and have to sign into it every time I start Vivaldi.

Hi @Ayespy , Thanks but sorry, I'm not following? I was asking if no one else has the problem of Vivaldi not shutting down when using File > Exit.

This post is deleted! -
@g_bartsch Sorry Garry, i read your post soon after you made it, but never replied, nor tested it, coz my mind was reeling at the concept of ever wanting to close V. I feel faint & need a lie down each time i contemplate such a radical concept.
-
@ayespy Um, err... did you reply to the wrong post?
Garry's OP was:
"File > Exit" does not shut down this snapshot. Shall I kill it in Task Manager?
