Reset settings to defaults – Vivaldi Browser snapshot 2669.3

[soad]

The Raindrop extension is still opening popups as windows, dunno if this is an issue caused by the snapshot or some extension update tho.

You thought I wouldn't notice the new and improved toolbar editor?!? I can put the address bar in the status toolbar if I so please now!

Does it then display the flakey behavior of Opera !!? (The field is in flux, making icons for Reload, etc. moving targets...)

I'd like to know what the hell is causing background notifications from service workers to not pop up if there isn't an active tab of the site it's meant to get the notifications from without me having to go full scorched earth and completely reset my ancient browser config, because I tried that and it's just too much.

@killchain If you need Sync with both, create a second account.

Aha! Finally, my nagging question is answered! I won't get in Dutch for creating more than one Vivaldi account...

My question is: Why?

Why does the browser have to render every single step along the way when moving buttons, when moving notes/bookmarks and when moving tabs (detached mode) ?

The problem with this is that at high tab counts (600+), it takes a lot for the browser to render even a single frame of such UI changes. My question is: When rendering is slow, why can't we jump straight to rendering the last and most important frame?

Why do we have to lag through all the frames?

Why doesn't this have any effect on this behavior?

@infosrefanvlad said in Reset settings to defaults – Vivaldi Browser snapshot 2669.3:

My question is: Why?

Because the feature is still under development and you're testing unfinished software.

[infosrefanvlad]

@Pathduck Is moving note/bookmarks and tabs (detached mode) still under active development? The same happens in a clean profile with the buttons at 200+ tabs, with no in-development experiments activated. Want me to check Stable too? I definitely could.

I guess I cannot ask anyone to fix nor optimize anything, even if it's been developed long ago (as is the case with moving notes/bookmarks).

I've got plenty of stuff on the in-development stuff too, much of it already discussed and even reported, but I'll never get to doing my work if I let myself get started on that. Besides, I'm sure that one user the whole operation has to rely on will eventually find, get the time to find the exact consistent repro steps (

hey could someone do me a favor and find the exact treshold at which moving tabs the normal way stops working? k thx, I promise I'll pay you big mate

) and report the bug I and others didn't have time for, else it'll stay there for months, chances are it'll do that even if reported.

I could use Stable, but then I'd have to wait the extra month for that specific quickly-fixed bug which skipped the minor versions to disappear with a major release and that's... so much more stable and ready for use, I guess...

Best I can do is appreciate Vivaldi and associates are at least trying to provide the browser I could recommend, and try to help by pointing out where improvements are needed. I apologize for not saying "hey I noticed the browser is doing this in version xxx. xxx and without this experiment" because it would have been considered more complete and respectful despite being functionally the same.

@juanvase: how do we do this, ive enabled editable toolbars via vivaldi:experiments but cant find the above screen

[TsunamiZ]

[Bookmarks] Bookmark folder icons are displaying as empty square icons (VB-88063)

thanks for fixing that, and please include it in the next minor update!

[hlehyaric]

@christiehmalry In the toolbar editor, select Command Chains (it's the menu's last item) & then hold crtl (or cmd on Mac) and drag a command chain icon to a toolbar.

[infosrefanvlad]

@Pathduck Ultimately it's all just words thrown on a wall, but please be careful not to assume that just because I'm using a Snapshot the issue also only occurs in Snapshots, and only with the newest, most unstable, "the in-development" configuration, and only in broken and bloated profiles.

Or if bugs reaching Stable are meant to stay and make the use of certain features difficult at best, just because it's "still in development", one only has to say and I'll stop reporting at once, I'll consider it a mere feature of the user experience.

@hlehyaric: im a real idiot here mate, where is the toolbar editor, im not seeing anything in settings ive just been dragging everything around, the only change after clicking editable toolbars i could find was the operative button changed from shift to ctrl

[killchain]

@pathduck: Would've been happy to do that if there was an easy way to import/export everything (like there was in Opera 12). For now I'd try just unchecking Settings from sync.

Still, thanks for the suggestion - at least it confirms my suspicion.

Edit: one day later with 'Settings' unchecked from the Sync settings in the snapshot and things seem okay.

[christiehmalry]

@hlehyaric: ignore me found it now thank you mate youre a star

[Pesala]

@christiehmalry Right-click on a toolbar, Customise, Edit Toolbar.

[christiehmalry]

@Pesala thanks mate

@christiehmalry
Hi, felt the same until I right click on the extension icon and choose "Customize".

Cheers, mib
EDIT: Hm, I don´t see the answer of Pesala. To late.
