If I type an address in the address bar and press Enter nothing happens, is it just me or this is a bug?
Bug report submitted: VB-54747
Do you have {{Address Auto-Complete}} Off, haven't you?
-
@Aronand :Appears to be caused by turning off auto-complete in the address bar, so should work if you turn that on again .
Thanks, works for me. -
@Sojiro84 That's a known issue. The Devs are working on that one.
-
@raed My is always OFF and Address Field Drop-Down Menu as well. In case the issue is related to Address Bar, I turn both On.
-
@ian-coog: The DEL key is not working for me, only the X with the mouse works.
-
@lamarca Good point. I have
Address Auto-Complete
off and pressingEnter
does nothing. If I enable this setting, pressingEnter
works. -
@hlehyaric That's very annoying. Messes up our typing.
-
@rhk turn off numlock/caps lock
-
Thanks for fixing that!
-
For me, with this version, pressing enter in the address bar does nothing.
-
Yeah editing and URL in the address bar is really messed up now. It keeps replacing the bits I've deleted with parts from history. Only started in this latest snapshot. Hopefully it's fixed in the next build, as this is getting annoying.

Actually, 3 in 1:
- If I paste address into address bar, I want to go exactly to that address.
- If I delete autocompleted part, I want it to be deleted.
- If I delete it again and press Enter, I want to go to URL without deleted part.

@hadden89: no. It is a snapshot built with the daily number 1581 (5th build of the day). That is all really.
It is post the latest final as that was branched from 1566.
Okay, and that's perfectly consistent.

@folgore101: we will change it at some point but it really does not matter and you need not think about it. Focus on the number that is listed (which is why it is listed).
This, i understand that less. Why use the first two numbers if they are so insignificant? Could they not be completely eliminated? But eliminate them on all sides, not just in the title of Snapshot News.
Given that numbers, i care little and nothing, but after a Stable i expect or a Minor Update (2.6.xxxx.xx) or a change of branch (2.7.xxxx.xx), only for a reason of consistency of releases. In my opinion, if you use the first two numbers, then you have to take them into account and not reason as if they were not there and modify them arbitrarily.
The substance obviously does not change and for you internally the thing is certainly superfluous but for those who follow from outside it could be a bit confusing.
-
@Folgore101 Funny. You
mention youhave mentioned the version number, I would suggest Ruarí to write a small article:
"Major Minor Build Path" -
@lamarca But Vivaldi is also fun.
Writing an article seems excessive to me, also because it would support my thesis, if you have to write an article for something so simple it means that the method used is not clear for those who do not work internally.
Another solution could be to use for the SS only the day and build (1581.5), without any other number in the News, in the file name and in the Information about Vivaldi.
The first two numbers should only be indicated in the Stable version so that the two are completely separate and do not give rise to doubts.Stable

But it seems easier to increase by one unit the second digit for all snapshots after the Stable.

@Folgore101 Fun every day.
Let me quote the CoC
quote- Some are very technical, some aren’t.
- Some are used to participating in online communities, some aren’t.
My prefs are the technical stuffs;)

It seems that something has changed regarding searches. Before, I could paste one or more search terms and if they were not resembling an address (i.e. containing at least one space), that'd get redirected to a search with the default search engine. Now, if I do this, Vivaldi tries to replace the whole thing with an address. Example - pasting
Installation Failure: Windows failed to install the following update with error 0xC0000005: Windows 10 Insider Preview 18922.1000 (rs_prerelease).
and hitting Enter results in the whole thing getting replaced withhttp://installation/%20Failure:%20Windows%20failed%20to%20install%20the%20following%20update%20with%20error%200xC0000005:%20Windows%2010%20Insider%20Preview%2018922.1000%20(rs_prerelease).
Seems like the "%20"s are not rendered in the address field, but are there the whole time (evident if you copy-paste something like this from the address field).modedit fixed format

@nutcracker The same heppened for me as well

@gwen-dragon: Thanks for confirming. It's still more convenient to have the old behaviour as well, although the bug only seems to appear if there's a dot in the query.

@sakuraayumi: It happened again today, after I had everything re-assigned a couple of days earlier. I joined the forum you suggested and commented on the subject. It is most certainly a strange and serious bug that has passed unattended by the devs. It is NOT related to syncing since I'm logged out. It happened to me for the first time after updating to version 1566.6. I don't know if that helps but today it happened right after I added a new tile and assigned a new thumbnail. I closed the browser and when re-started it ... everything gone. I suspect that, somehow, it happens when changing something in the speed-dial (reorganizing or adding). Since I work with speed-dial and not with the bookmarks bar, it is a true nightmare and the worse thing that could happen to me - it disorganizes everything and adds a load of useless work to correct it. I hope somebody from the devs will give the necessary attention, because it is really frustrating!
