HTML5/eHTML5 windows opened in new tab have small dimensions
-
@enc0re Thanks for your test!
I suggested in internal chat to use better default sizes derived from parent window. But did not have got any reply from a dev.
-
@doctorg Any reply?
-
@enc0re No reply yet.
-
Any news about it? I think I will be regularly asking here every 2,3 weeks.
-
@enc0re No progress.
-
Coming back after almost month. Could you ask internally again?
-
@enc0re I will try.
-
@enc0re Had you already tested with 5.0.2497.20?
Try test case at https://jsfiddle.net/ogt3mhan/
Gives for me a a larger popup now in 5.0 RC2 Stable compared to very small one of 4.2.2406.54!//edit: I close the bug report now, if you think your issue is not solved, please contact me by chat or leave a comment here.

I've tested .18, yes its better now.
It looks like that popup dimensions is ~75% of desktop resolution width and ~73% of desktop resolution height. IMO 75% for width is too much and 73% too lesss. As I'm only complaing about it, for me ideal would be ~58-60% for width and ~80% for height.However it looks like that solution is not properly tested.
Popup window position is taken from main window from where it was executed and only once, when it was started. It doesn't reflect to which monitor is main window moved.
If I Start Vivaldi on main window, then move it to secondary window and open popup, in my case iDRAC Virtual Console window, it is shown on primary monitor where primary window was started. This is bad.To open popup window on secondary monitor, I need to open any file manager, for example, Windows Explorer, navigate on filesystem and run Vivaldi from there. This way the browser starts on secondary monitor (it is weird because window should remember its last position, but thats other thing here). And now the popup window will open on secondary monitor. Now, if I move main window to primary monitor and open popup window, it will open on secondary monitor and not on primary.
This is useless, because usually Vivaldi is pinned on primary monitor, either taskbar or start or desktop.
So, the bug is fixed, lets say from 1/2, but I would say from 1/3 because of that popup window dimensions.
Definitely must be fixed the positioning. Other browsers do it correctly as I wrote in first post. After click on link/button which will open popup window, it must find out on which monitor the main browser window is present.

@enc0re The popup size has gone better. I agree that more has to be fixed.
But i, and i fear the internal testers too, can not help more as we have no access to such server monitoring software like yours.Yes, running muti-monitor environment and Vivaldi can cause positioning trouble, old unfixed issues.
Feel free to report the new bug.

@enc0re Can you please open a separate bug report only for "Vivaldi open popup on wrong monitor"?
If you can reproduce it with this example https://jsfiddle.net/602eLavs/ leave URL in report. -

Sure? So Chrome and Edge patch this every time they release a new version?
@enc0re said in HTML5/eHTML5 windows opened in new tab have small dimensions:
Primary screen is notebook inbuilt 1920x1080, secondary is 2560x1080. Browsers are running on secondary screen.
