Address bar improvements – Vivaldi Browser snapshot 2794.3

[Edmarcio]

"Use Native Windows" has duplicated buttons and titles.
It is really fast... the fastest Vivaldi was ever and maybe close to others browsers.
Without "User Native Windows" on it seen to lag behind others browsers in terms of performance... this new Snapshot to me is slower than previous or 5.4.

I'm using a Dell Latitute 5420 with 32GB RAM... I disable hardware acceleration too because it feel slower with it enabled (same for Chrome or Edge).

Address bar drop-down doesn't seem to be working in this version (Windows x64, autocomplete disabled, drop-down only offers Search, not previously visited pages), I also have double titlebar (native from Windows [enabled in Settings] and a Chrome-like titlebar below it; all menus [right-click menu included] also open at an offset):

@Ruarí - thank you; I am glad to see the Windows 7 border issue has been fixed. I love how Vivaldi starts up now. Perfect.

Thank you devs! The window coming-unmaximized bug seems fixed. May its death be eternal.

Hovering over the maximize window button crashes Vivaldi (Windows 11).

Hi, I cant reproduce this, check in the guest view.
Maybe an extension goes crazy after the update, it include also an update to Chromium 106.

If the subject of an RSS entry contains ampersand (&), only the part before it is copied upon selecting 'Copy Subject'. E.g. copying the subject "Me & You together" will copy only 'Me'.

PIp corners are not rounded. Is this intentional?

[DoctorG]

@ImStillAnOperaFanBoy On Windows 11 corners of PiP are rounded.

[ImStillAnOperaFanBoy]

@doctorg: I'm using Windows 11, but it's not rounded.

[ImStillAnOperaFanBoy]

@doctorg: I gonna try in another pc.

[DoctorG]

@ImStillAnOperaFanBoy I can see this now, too, with my Snapshot. Sorry.

Sad, Chromium 105.0.5195.102 has rounded PiP.

Is a Vivaldi issue. Please report issue to Vivaldi tracker

[ImStillAnOperaFanBoy]

@doctorg: OK.

[Edmarcio]

@mozzer You need to check "User Native Windows" in Apparence and restart... the new snapshot will show twice the title and the window control buttons.
No extension installed.

Edit - In Windows 10 btw.

[DoctorG]

@Edmarcio Please report issue to Vivaldi tracker.
I will confirm the bug in tracker.

Version is 5.5.2794.3 (Official Build) (64-bit)

I'm seeing some anomalous behavior after today's update.

I now have a second menu title bar below the main bar, Both have the usual Windows minimize, windowed (of FS) mode, and close. Both function the same. I can't get rid of the errant second bar.

Also, I use the horizontal menu and when set, every time I click on view, it returns to the "V" icon mode. That's a new bug. Also, clicking a menu item causes the menu to open and then immediately close. It should remain open until you mouse down and select an item. You have to hold down the left mouse button and scroll to select something and then release.

Are these new bugs or is there something else going on.

Windows 10 Pro and updated to the latest M$ patches.

@mib2berlin the Guest View (in my case) never opens in Native Window mode, so of course it's not affected.

Apart from the additional title bar, mouse clicks are registered at an offset (even on UI and internal pages) and the text is blurry (mismatch of actual/reported viewport?).

@Ruarí I'd consider the native UI mode in this Snapshot as effectively unusable.

[rskunath]

It's a mess alright...

I'm seeing the same, double window title bars on the main window and even on the settings window. Also the horizontal menu is broken now. If you click it then a menu item opens and disappears immediately. Click on view and it goes to icon mode. Click to get it back and it repeats. Any other menu item opens and immediately closes activating the first item unless you hold the mouse button and scroll to the item and then release.

Windows 10 Pro and all of the latest patches.

Hopefully there is a fix shortly as this isn't the way it used to work. Very annoying behavior.
