Vivaldi 5.3: Tweak and tune your browser with the new Editable Toolbars.
-
How does the search engine sync work? I can't see a related entry on the sync settings page. Is it part of the global browser settings?
I have updated to the latest stable on two PCs. They had different search engines created, but after the update, I don't see a merged list. I can't see the same search engines on both machines. Am I missing something?

Editable Toolbars is very nice! I have removed a Status Bar completely. Zoom buttons and Download button are on the Address bar now!
Drop-down bookmark menu and MMB scrolling (aka autoscrolling) for Linux next?
-
This is what we needed! Such a good update, probably my favorite so far

There already is a way, using an external python script [it adds MMB AS systemically, so you have it available in ALL your Nix apps]. Lemme know if you want the github link.

Thanks, but I am well aware about this workaround

You are pardoned.

@Stardust , I did the same yesterday

@Stardust Can't live without my (thin) status bar which shows my Vivaldi build, on which I have moved the download button some snappies ago, because it interferes otherwise with my notifications
Then again I use a 16:10 monitor which has the perfect height and width, not the TV trash format forced into Computers

Can't argue with that(*) - recently had three additional monitors added to the two laptops on my desk... and while trying to configure this behemoth set up, I've confirmed what I already knew: 16:9 monitors are both too wide for practical document/spreadsheet editing and at the same time too narrow in portrait mode! (I also tried twin-portrait but that's a nightmare when it comes to windowing, menus and other user-interface things.)
Our decade old 16:10 desktop downstairs, however, just feels "right" for any task or game.
(*) I can't help wondering if 4:3 was ever wrong for work applications...

@mossman
. Certain laptop manufacturers like Lenovo with Thinkpads have begun offering again models with 16:10 screens so maybe this is the beginning of reverting that stupid TV industry trend (plague actually). -

IMO it was all downhill after Mr Marconi's Wireless...

Ha ha!
Although I said that slightly tongue-in-cheek... the moment 16:9 screens started appearing on laptops I thought it wasn't an "advancement".

we also want opera style workspaces

Nice!
But what about those Screenshot and Page actions buttons? Are you really using it?@npro said in Vivaldi 5.3: Tweak and tune your browser with the new Editable Toolbars.:
shows my Vivaldi build
You can also add days count without updates there
-
@Stardust , in the page actions only the invert filter in some pages, for screenshots I use mostly ShareX, way better, but not so good for making a screenshot of the whole page.
I certainly use these two Vivaldi functions very little, but having the Task Bar hidden makes it nice to have it close at hand. -
Now im still waiting for the day that Vivaldi adds Tabs below Address Bar, its the only customization option missing.

Am I missing something?
Edit: Oh right - I suppose you mean above the page. Not sure why you'd want that though...
-
@mossman because im a vintage user i guess, prefer always classic ui
-
Hey - is there any need for this plugin button to appear? If I remove it, my plugin icons also disappear... it's ugly and out of place xD
