Switch to disable picture-in-picture / video popout icon
-
I wouldn't go as far as call it ridiculous, the feature has its uses, but as pointed out before, seeing as Vivaldi prides itself on its customisation it's baffling something like this was implemented without a toggle and even more baffling is the complete silence form the dev team on the issue.
For now on my "production" machine I've downgraded last version without this feature.

This is not snapshot anymore!!! its in stable release I also want this thing disabled or button to turn it of please. I opened a post here regarding this

Vivaldi didn't incorporate a disable switch or turn off button anywhere. I might have to switch browsers because of this. I will wait a little bit but I'm not patient person i like my things the way i set them. SO COME ON
-
So THAT'S what it is! I thought some extension was causing it!
This really needs to go away ASAP, it's annoying, in the way, and doesn't even seem to work properly for me (I just get a black screen when pressing it).
And worst of all it doesn't auto-hide every time! I'm on an OLED, I really don't want this thing to burn itself into my screen if I'm not careful.
-
Add option to hide pop-out video button (something like if mouse hover more than 3 second then hide button)
-
So there's no option for that yet ? Me sad... This is a cool option but the icon is too annoying imo.
-
Extremely annoying button.
There USED TO be a way to disable this in Vivaldi... or maybe I'm thinking of Opera...
I know I saw it a while ago... possibly a couple years... and someone gave me the info on how to disable it... but of course, now I can't find it!
-
@dracho The feature is very new. There is no option to disable it yet. This thread is only 9 days old.
-
I also think it should be disabled by default.
-
Agree. I also need the option to disable this. Horrible icon.
-
Are there any news from devs about this 'feature'? Will they add button to disable it in webbrowser?
-
Why on earth would you add a pervasive feature like this without an option to remove it. First you mess up the ctrl+enter autocomplete, now you do this. Firefox is calling. This is moronic.
I have no problem with anyone adding features, people wanted this, so by all means add it... but let me turn the bloody thing off.
-
+1 for giving an option to disable this. It's beyond annoying
-
Probably the fastest upvoted feature request ever?
Or rather, request to remove a feature... -

+1 for a way to disable it. I like the feature but It's kind of bugged. Like others mentioned it takes too much space for smaller video players/gifs and I've noticed that it is somewhat buggy. When I watch youtube in full screen sometimes it doesn't hide and I have to move the cursor to the corner of the screen to hide it.
-
I like the feature but it is rather useless in fullscreen so I would add an option to "disable the floating button in fullscreen only, if possible.
-
+1 for an option to disable this please.
-
Added my vote. That button is annoying when watching videos in full screen.
