[Regression] Mouse gestures do not work while loading page (VB-41799)
Awesome! And please fix the same issue with 'Switch Tabs be Scrolling' (RMB + Wheel) feature.
-
[Download] Unable to cancel Download dialog from keyboard (VB-16552)
at last, esc aborts download dialog now -
@a3ano Re: VB-42806 - I ran into this glitch during testing but thought that I had corrupted my profile. I deleted my profile and started fresh and haven't run into this issue again since.
-
@luetage yep i like it too, it's a nice addition. Next step is a slider for speed dial dimensions
-
I'm liking the new into page. And mouse gestures seem to be working better (so far, anyway). Good update!
-
[Regression] Cannot scroll PDF document with cursor keys (VB-41191)
confirmed working, internal pdf viewer opens pdfs and immediately can be scrolled with cursor down/page down etc -
@reddy-shyam You can do as several of us do...install a standalone version along with a stable release.
I do so I can test what others report. My standalone snapshot is a naked install. No extensions with minimal bookmarks. -
[Regression] Mouse gestures do not work on window.open() popup windows (VB-42845)
ohh yes, works for me, at least now I can close popup windows with mouse gesture now -
Flag Watch for Chrome 69 update:
Heres a change to the flags for anyone who likes to live dangerously and play with them. Remember to check with them disabled before reporting any bugs. Some may be chrome only.
New Stuff:
#overlay-strategies, #enable-webrtc-remote-event-log, #enable-webassembly-threads, #enable-v8-orinoco, #close-buttons-inactive-tabs, #new-tab-button-position, #single-tab-mode, #enable-oop-rasterization, #translate, #enable-heavy-page-capping, #enable-cloud-printer-handler, #enable-web-authentication-ctap2-support, #autofill-prefilled-fields, #autofill-rationalize-repeated-server-predictions, #enable-layout-ng, #enable-sync-user-consent-separate-type, #ntp-custom-links, #enable-websocket-auth-connection-reuse, #enable-accessibility-object-model, #enable-autoplay-ignore-web-audio, #upcoming-ui-features, #enable-blink-heap-incremental-marking, #enable-css-fragment-identifiers, #enable-ephemeral-flash-permission, #infinite-session-restore, #page-almost-idle, #proactive-tab-freeze-and-discard, #site-characteristics-database, #gamepad-polling-rate, #allow-sxg-certs-without-extension, #enable-bloated-renderer-detectionChanged:
#enable-password-generation > #automatic-password-generation, #ignore-previews-blacklist > #ignore-previews-blocklist, A bunch of google pay flags, chrome omnibox stuff, #BundledConnectionHelpRemoved:
#enable-manual-password-generation, #enable-md-extensions, #important-sites-in-cbd, #enable-renderer-side-resource-scheduler, #memory-ablation, #enable-d3d-vsync, #enable-manual-fallbacks-filling, #enable-wheel-scroll-latchingA lot of experimental engine specific changes. Also, looks like you'll no longer be able to disable the material design extensions page. Chrome (not vivaldi) is adding built-in translation of some kind. More attempts to deprecate flash. Some attempts to move towards a session restore similar to vivaldi's use of hibernation.

@lonm: Seems I spoke too soon. There seems to be some difficulty in getting Open in new tab (Over a link) gestures to work
-
@zaibon: my theory is to try ending the farce^Wnecessity of faked UserAgent version for some sites, and chromium 69 contains enough drastic changes to justify a major release step.
-
Wow! Running for about an hour.
- Speed is much faster.
- Moving between tabs is super smooth.
- Scrolling with mouse wheel is so much better than before.
- For some strange reason when updating via the GUI I had to completely reset my install.
- When prompted during the install the snapshot did not import bookmarks from the stable install even though it was offered.
-
Won't get to test this out until I get home. Has this snapshot fixed the crash on tab closing bug?
-
@dragonmastr I don't see it listed, and already saw a couple of crashes.

@lonm said in Regression fixes, backend updates and improvements – Vivaldi Browser snapshot 2.0.1295.3:

Chrome (not vivaldi) is adding built-in translation of some kind.What do you mean, something beyond the built-in translation it's had possibly since the beginning?
I wish Vivaldi could tap into that translation somehow, since it's great to have, but I guess it's a Chrome thing and not a Chromium thing. Yes, there are extensions and bookmarklets, but....
-
@pesala: bummer
-
You guys are the best.
-
@gigzama: And gals!
-
@dragonmastr There's still an open bug (VB-43095) where closing a tab can trigger crash. I've run into it myself on occasion but haven't found a way to reproduce it with any consistency. If you've found a way to trigger any crash reliably, please file a bug report. Thanks!

Facebook Videos won't play. YouTube is ok. I am on Mac OS.
