Doubts in the use of the browser
-
I have two questions and I can't find the solutions on the internet.
Why doesn't the enter key work to enter sites, for example email? Other browsers do: Edge and Firefox.
Why do you have to click on the pages to advance?
You donΒ΄t have to do this in Edge or FirefoxThank you ...

@josegimenez Hello and Welcome to the Vivaldi Community
Why doesn't the enter key work to enter sites, for example email? Other browsers do: Edge and Firefox.
You'll have to explain this better. Enter works fine here for opening links, bookmarks, URLs etc.
Why do you have to click on the pages to advance?
Same here. I do not understand what you mean. Do you mean clicking on links? How does this work better in Edge/FF?
-
Ok, thanks.
Let me try to explain, I will upload 2 images for better explaining.
1 - When you go to the site to enter an email and the page loads it puts all the data. If, at that moment, you press the enter key it does nothing, you have to click next. In Edge and Firefox pressing the enter key you go to your email.
2 - When you are viewing a page, for example, The Washington Post, in many opportunities, you have to click on the page to go page down or up. In the browsers above mentioned you only use pgup or pgdn keys. In this case, it does not happens always, but in many instances.Images:
1 - sign page in live mail
2 - TWP pageI hope I have explained myself well.
Thanks

@josegimenez I understand. In Vivaldi Linux everything works as you want it to, soon I will try it in Windows.
It could be personal settings that have changed the behavior.
-
@Dancer18 I uninstalled Vivaldi and reinstalled. I did'nt change anything. I'm no expert but I think it's something that Vivaldi has. By the way, if you go to Facebook it's the same thing, you have to click log in if you press enter nothing happens.
I know this is not important, I only mention ti because in Edge and Firefox this does not happen.
I'm a new user in Vivaldi and I like it very much so I'm trying to use it as my default.
Thanks ... -
@josegimenez So, I just checked it in my Windows. Also there everything works as you want it to have and as it is in Edge or Firefox according to your statement.
I made a screenshot of my Vivaldi settings for websites. Compare them with your settings and change them if necessary.
-
@Dancer18 I did that, no change. Thanks....
-
@Dancer18 The only things I had to change are:
Hide the mouse cursor for page ....
Untick use tab zoomThe rest was the same.
-
@josegimenez Oh. I'll have to skip then. Maybe someone else knows further. As I said - with me it goes both in Linux and in Windows...

I just tried this on Windows using default settings.
Pressing Enter works fine. Not sure why it is not working for you.Also tried Facebook twice just to be sure. Pressing Enter submitted my form.
-
@josegimenez What Windows version do you have?
-
@Dancer18 windows 10 22H2
-
@eyohansa That's what happens in the other browsers
not in Vivaldi (for me). The same just happened when I did login in this forum, click to login. Must be something related to The Twilight Zone or the upside down. -

Browsers are not magic, there is probably a Really Simple Explanation. You just haven't figured it out yet.
With password saved, I can press Enter, Enter, Enter and log in on Outlook Live dot com.
On WP I load the page and can use PgDown/PgUp and arrow keys to scroll without clicking in the page.
This on Win10 22H2 x64 with a clean profile of Vivaldi 5.5 Stable.
Please try all the troubleshooting steps, including testing in a clean profile and disabling extensions:

Maybe this sounds like page focus?
-
Maybe an extension is changing the focus behavior?
-
@bariton Ok. Thanks. This are my settings in wepage.
-
@sgunhouse I think not because I have only one extension and it's the same if I have it on or off. Thanks....
-
@josegimenez I thought setup/tabs/tab handling/focus page content on new tab.
-
@Pathduck Ok. Let me go to the list:
1 Done. Same problem.
2 is up to date
3 Have to do this. I'm no sure what to do after I create the new profile.
4 Done. Same problem
