Drop-down bookmarks menu button on the Address Bar
-
BTW i created mod with similiar funcionality.
https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/24849/bookmarks-in-address-bar-mod -
Please add a button for "bookmarks" on the address bar, which shows a drop down menu of our bookmarks like the horizontal menu. It is a good alternate option of accessing bookmarks, for users who prefer to hide the horizontal menu and the bookmarks bar to save screen space.
[bug reported VB-57640]

Yep!
I am waiting for this button since 2018 -

am tagging @jon here.
4 years is way too long.
I was expected that there would be more upvotes for this Feature Request
-
@Stardust - LOL! Funny GIF. I mean, @jon should be willing to hear directly from users. That's what effective bosses do. They take the discussion straight to consumers and figure out useful feedback together to make everyone happy. Nothing wrong with me tagging @jon here, though I wish he'd put priority on fixing that godawful, in-your-face bug involving the Windows 7 border showing up on startup before disappearing. Very visually disconcerting. Anyway, yes. They ought to add a button for drop-down bookmarks next to the address bar. That would make complete sense. Bar none.

@Omnimaxus you have to know that "Windows 7 support ended on January 14, 2020" so it's not anyone business anymore. Get over it and install at least win10, if not 11.
Continue lamenting there are problems in unsupported OSes which nobody cares about anymore is not a wise choice. -
@iAN-CooG Especially as chromium could decide to pull out the plug to win7 soon or later (
I'd say not before 2025) -

Well, there are a lot Feature Requests, so imagine if everybody start tagging him

I noticed that too on Windows 11, but this is offtopic. Have you bugreported it?

I'm also here for voting this feature request. I don't like the panel where all the bookmarks are in. I'm hiding this panel. But it would be great to be able to put a bookmarks icon into the address bar. Please!

Hi, may I miss understand but this is already in the file menu:So one mouse movement more than a button but you can move the Bookmarks entry on top of the file menu if you like.
Cheers, mib

Good catch. But I prefer an icon.
Actually, I'm testing out some extensions. Maybe I'll find a matching icon for my address bar.

Would love to have an old school bookmark button. With the ability to add, and remove buttons in the toolbar I would think it should be easy to implement an additional button that just servs as an alt+b. I understand you can hit menu, and bookmarks, and alt+b of course. But my preference for accessing bookmarks after nearly 30 years of web browsing is just a traditional bookmark button from an address/toolbar.
-
@Dead4Me Whether you use the Horizontal Menu or the Button Menu, Alt+B alone is sufficient to bring up the Bookmarks Menu. If you have disabled it, you may need to re-enable Settings, Keyboard:
Alt Key for Main Menu -
@Pesala I have no intentions of using the horizontal menu. I hate screen clutter. It's one of the first things I disable on a browser. I have been using Vivaldi for maybe a year now. I have been using the menu>Bookmarks method. Would just be nice to remove the extra mouse gesturing, and all. It's a small, but meaningful difference to navigate the UI.
I have seen there are JS/CSS methods to add one. I may look into that. It's just strange with the level of customization Vivaldi has it doesn't have a basic bookmark button.
-
@Dead4Me What extra mouse gesturing do you need to use?
Alt+B brings up the Bookmarks Menu for me, both in the unmodified Stable build, and in the Snapshot version.
Surely, adding a button would require extra mouse gesturing to click the button?
-
I am just meaning from clicking the menu button, and then moving the cursor to the bookmarks menu to expand it. Also using Alt+B the bookmark menu renders the bookmark menu under the main menu I just noticed... So there is a bug there apparently.
I just like not having to touch the keyboard if not needing to type. I am not huge on shortcut keys unless it's something that has to be done that way. It's all personal preference really. I just want to click a simple button for bookmarks as I always have after moving to Vivaldi.
