The address line in Vivaldi - it shouldn't work like this

@sukovec
Hehe, strange.
You can copy most configuration files back to the new profile, listed in the description of the link.
Cost me 10 Minutes to get a "working" Vivaldi after reset.Cheers, mib

As a pretty lazy creature, it took me lot of time to try create new profile (and create all that "login forever" cookies and other things). So, now I can say it helped nothing of my list. Even few seconds after new profile was created (or, to be correct, old profile moved out), first issue appeared - and it appeared even on other OS. That's obviously a bug.
I didn't spotted 2,3,4; but I believe it's not due to non-presence of bug, it's rather caused by short visited URL list thus much faster rendering.
The point 5. and 7. appears almost immediately. Although the browser does this to me every time, I still not managed to get used to it.
So, getting a new profile was not way to solve this problems. They are definitely bugs. And no one tries to solve them. No one is going to tell me "hey, this is intended functionality" or "you're right, let's find out details and repair it". Although O12 was not perfect, it was huge lost. Sad.

Hi again!
I've discovered another super-annoying bug. When I open new tab, type something into address line and then quickly switch to previous tab (with ctrl+tab), the new page opens in that previous tab and new tab remains empty.
-
Hello Gwen-Dragon. I can, of course, make a bug report - and I've made one bug report about these pretty serious issues more than year ago. However, most of these issues are probably caused by incorrect handling of events and thus are probably related - but nobody is even trying to say "hey, we are trying to repair this", like these problems are just minor problems. Are they?
-
Hi.
One of these issues was reported 31th may 2017: VB-28940.
If it makes sense, I will report all of these - as a one issue, as they are probably related.
-
Hm. I can still easily reproduce it even in 2.2.1388.37
Try going on https://sh.sukovec.cz/gpe.html (simple page with meta http-equiv redirect after 7 seconds). After load, try to delete all content and write something - whatever - into the address bar.
When the redirect is made, content of address bar is replaced with newly loaded webpage addresses.
-
So, I've reported next two bugs: VB-47898 and VB-47896. It would be a pleasure if I get something better than "Cannot Reproduce"
-
@Gwen-Dragon said in The address line in Vivaldi - it shouldn't work like this:
Confirmed
And the other two? Should I report that redirect-bug again with more info?
-
Okay, tell me what more info do you need? I tried to describe it as good as I'm able to. I can show you the script, that can reproduce the bug every time (on my machine - with much faster computer and empty profile it may not happen that easily, but I'm able reproduce it even with empty profile).
#!/bin/bash sleep 2 # open first tab xdotool key ctrl+t # open a new tab sleep 1 # wait a moment xdotool type google.com # write google.com and xdotool key Return # press enter sleep 2 # wait a moment # open second tab xdotool key ctrl+t # open a tab sleep 1 # wait a little bit as typing now could insert a letter into google page (a bug too) xdotool type bing.com # type bing.com xdotool key Return # press enter to go to page xdotool key Return ctrl+Tab # without even slight delay, switch to another tab # now, the bing.com is being loaded into google.com tab and new tab for bing is being empty
Usage: save it somewhere. Open a something in a tab in vivaldi (ideally not google or bing). Run the script and (between two seconds) switch to Vivaldi window.

Hi,
what is status of VB-47896? If not confirmed, what should I do to prove this bug is perfectly reproducible?
-
This post is deleted! -
Funny thing. I've found another bug (it's not too annoying as the previous, but still a bug). Reported as VB-48322. Testing script included in bug report
-
Hi, I've sent by mail this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lb3BdmJEWL8
It should show, how it behave on my computer. Was script broken or something? You wrote "confirmed" first.
Thanks.
-
Maybe I don't understand: does your "confirmed" confirm existence of the bug or is it just and only confirmation of received report? By the way, is video + script enough or should I add more?
-
So, continuing rather here, deleted my previous post in bug-status thread..
@Gwen-Dragon said in What is the status of VB (=already reported bug/issue)?:
VB-28940
Closed as CAN NOT REPRODUCE
It can be reproduced pretty easily here. Open the page, enter address bar and start editing it. After 7 seconds, address bar will get rewritten by new content. https://sh.sukovec.cz/gpe.html
Btw, can I ask, what are priorities of this BRs?

@Gwen-Dragon said in The address line in Vivaldi - it shouldn't work like this:
Yes, after redirect the destination address is in adress field.
It's not okay, if address bar has a focus. If I'm writing something into address bar, it should not be rewritten by redirect - it can either remove some long address/search I've written and/or result into nonsense, when the redirect is made short time before I finish wrtiting and press enter.
@Gwen-Dragon said in The address line in Vivaldi - it shouldn't work like this:
Low Priority.
Why low priority? Some of them are extremly annoying and I come across them multiple times a day (like that opening in wrong tab).

@sukovec I reopened the bug now and confirmed for 2.3.1440.41
Great, thanks!
