It's about time – Vivaldi Browser snapshot 2202.3

Bettybop

On my PC now when I right-click on a webpage and I try to use an extension (like ImTranslator or OneNote Web Clipper) these extensions have a weird behavior: they do not work or they copy a note or they open a new email message even if the Vivaldi Mail is turned off...
Anyone else?
It seems a conflict with keyboard shortcuts but that should not happen...

New bug in this snapshot:

Web-Panels steel focus from search bar or other input fields
Key: VB-77116

"only" if automatic reload is activated, right?

@derDay Yes! I just updated my bug-report because I found out.

@luetage If I type chrome.tabs on its on in the dev tools, I can see several are completely missing in the vivaldi dev tools but still present in extensions.

Missing methods:

executeScript
getAllInWindow
getSelected
insertCSS

Some listeners too:

onActiveChanged
onHighlightChanged
onSelectionChanged

Screenshot

I can see from the docs that most of the missing methods and listeners are marked Deprecated. Except for executeScript and insertCSS. Not sure what is going on.

With this update, the browser feels a lot more responsive. Particularly when closing tabs. The previous version there was occasionally some noticeable lag when closing a tab. Now tab closing feels instant.

@LonM Maybe we are missing something, after all Vivaldi devs still seem to be using it. But good find either way.

How to clear the blue border of leaves when moving. How to return the worksheet to its original view? Thx

Yes, we waited a long time and waited.
If developers also implement editing menu items from extensions (deleting and renaming), as well as changing the background color of the menu to an arbitrary one, it will be generally great.

@kichrot IOW:

Here you got the feature that you asked for.
-- Oh, great! So now you have lotta time to do another feature, right?

:face_with_stuck-out_tongue: (sorry, couldn't help myself)

@Kevinar I suppose it was added for clarity of where the tab will be positioned when dropped. What do you mean with 'original view'? The position where it was before dragging? (If yes, just move it back there & drop it.)

There could be a bug somewhere though -- I can't check it now.

[New][Windows] Silent update support, stage 1, silent download of updates: this cannot be tested until the following snapshot

Does it mean auto update of Vivaldi without user interaction?

MasterLeo29

The periodic reload on web panels gonna be extremely helpful for me and my coworkers. Thanks once more team Vivaldi !

Updater in Windows does not work, has not worked since I filed a bug report (VB-76120) and was told it was fixed in January. It was in the changelog.

This issue is already fixed and was noted in the snapshot changelog, i.e.

*[Windows][Regression] Autoupdate notification is not triggering shortly after start ([1]VB-75769)

You saw the issue because your build was older than this snapshot and thus still had this problem. However the build you have now has the fix, thus for future snapshots you should no longer have an issue.

For what it is worth, autoupdate would still trigger just less frequently, >so you would have eventually been notified.

If I'd missed your Post, I'd have missed it this important update.

eventually

Just doesn't cut it as I am always using the Latest Snapshot!

@oudstand: Unpin/pin? Weird things happen with the taskbar sometimes in general.

rseiler

@saudiqbal: Must be, and presumably via Task Scheduler, the way Chrome and some others do. As long as we can disable whatever it is.

I see that tab dragging was drastically improved. Overall, it feels much more responsive and better than what we had before (more "chrome-like" )

However, I do feel it is a tad too sensitive, and it does not mix well with the "Minimize Active Tab" setting

This is how tab dragging worked before, notice how I had to drag outside of the tab bar before the pop-up showed up.

Meanwhile the new tab dragging results in the pop-up showing up immediately, without dragging the tab outside the tab bar. Additionally, because of the "Minimize Active Tab" setting, I lose focus of the tab I'm currently viewing, so not ideal.

@AltCode You will lose focus of your current tab anyway whenever you move a tab. This is because Vivaldi activates tabs on mousedown now, previously it was on click (mouseup). I hope this decision will be reversed, I feel like that’s unexpected behavior, maybe it should be reported as bug. Moreover showing the thumbnail on move should only be enabled when pop‐up and/or tab thumbnails are enabled, otherwise we are dragging a big empty square around, doesn’t really make sense.

Hi and thanks for this big update. However I still have some issues that I'd like to see worked on:

please remove that gap between tab bar and the tab previews. When the cursor hits that gap when moving the mouse cursor from the tap to the tab previews (I have the tabs on the right) the previews instantly disappear
on tab previews a middle click should close that very tab and not the one that is currently open/active. (Tab stack with tabs [a] and [b]. [b] is currently the active tab from that stack. When middle clicking on the preview of tab [a] tab [b] is being closed)
on tab previews when closing a tab the remaining previews should not disappear so that the user would be able to perform further tab operations on the remaining tabs
a strange bug where my regular (neither spam nor unwanted mails) automatically get moved to the trash. Even after explicitly telling to undelete these mails Vivaldi slowly starts moving them back into the trash one by one (approx. one mail every two minutes). I let it do it to see to which extend it is done but after 1.700 mails or so I again undeleted all of these (that took some time and after that operation there where 3 mails in the trash again...). I know it is an experimental feature but I thought it is better to let you know.
sadly some (or all?) mouse gestures do not work in web panel (for example go to top/bottom of the page).

Thank you for your time!
