@ruario Unfortunately I still can't open pdf files without saving.
If I need them, there is the save button.
Save, Save as, Open, CancelThe "Open" button is present, but does not work.

Unable to middle click on back, forward, or refresh buttons in this snapshot on Windows 10. Another bug, on the bookmarks bar, when dragging a bookmark a bookmark out of its folder onto the bookmarks bar by itself, it creates a duplicate without removing the bookmark from the folder. The duplicate also doesn't retain its bookmark title and just displays the URL.

@csablak Are you able to open any of these files below?
https://www.w3.org/WAI/ER/tests/xhtml/testfiles/resources/pdf/dummy.pdf
https://www.adobe.com/support/products/enterprise/knowledgecenter/media/c4611_sample_explain.pdfI think it depends on the web server giving an content-type of "application/pdf". Are you able to give an example URL?

@ayespy: What's your internet speed? I think it could be my slow internet speed related. It often freezes up when I open a new tab and the new tab is loading

@drv42: there's a forum thread about this issue here https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/32508/some-of-twitter-s-videos-sound-stops-playing-after-9-seconds/32

@archive1 I'm getting a blazing 8 MB right now.
Whoa - I lied. It's more like 20. Nominally, I pay for 25 MBPS, but ususally I never seem to get more than 8 or 10.
Under normal browsing conditions, I can't really tell the difference.

@atlemo: It's strange that you would remove a customization feature when Vivaldi's primary marketing pitch is customizability, something to think about

Bookmark bar on top...
Bookmark bar on bottom...

Option to lock speed dials. Please and thanks.

@willgogo: This will be fixed with VB-50803

Oh my, it seems Vivaldi bookmark search never searches UPPERCASE letters in URLs.
e.g. If the URL contains "id=AA3", you can find "id=", but can not find "=A" or "AA" or "A3". -
Not sure if @TheDragonReborn means this issue:
If you disable "Open on Nickname Match" option, and then type "/." in Quick Commands window, it opens immediately (as if that option were enabled). -
@Pathduck
I think the buttons should control what I want and not the web page.
But the fact, that the examples you were send, to do work without saving.
But only if I enabled the internal pdf viewer.
If I push "Open" buttom, it is should save it to the /tmp folder without request, and open either internal or external pdf viewers. -
@csablak That's true. Maybe it is broken on Linux. Here on Windows 10 I can select "Open" on the file you are trying and it will download first to default location, then open in browser.

@vias Indeed, I can confirm that. The same problem happens when searching the history.
You should report that as a bug: https://vivaldi.com/bugreport/ -
@aronand: Thanks!

Not so unfortunate, you know... Frankly i've been v surprised that lots of people are NOT talking about this potentially nasty bug:

- https://www.zdnet.com/article/google-chrome-zero-day-used-in-the-wild-to-collect-user-data-via-pdf-files/
Ever since i discovered these on 2/3/19 i have disabled viewing PDFs in the browser. It's a total PITA, so i'm really hanging out for end-April.

@derDay Yeah noticed that as well.. in the past a single click would open the list of domains, now it instantly triggers "delete all entries". I definetly likes the old behavior more. (have tab bar at left, so trashcan is at the bottom)

@ayespy: mines 2 MBPS download and 0.5 Mbps upload
