Further address bar fixes – Vivaldi Browser snapshot 2887.3

[Pesala]

It seems that a recent Snapshot has broken buttons in range controls for the Zoom slider placed on the Navigation Bar. The controls on the Status Bar are OK.

UI Zoom is set to 100%

Reported bug as:

(VB-93970) Use Buttons in Range Controls broken on Status Bar

[Themes] Background Resets after Reboot (VB-85062)

This bug was marked as fixed two snapshots ago, but I would like to point out that it doesn't seem to be fully fixed yet.

On some reboots, the theme background is remembered, but on other reboots it is not.

I cannot figure out how or why it only happens every other reboot now.

(FYI, this only affects default themes that have been edited to use a custom background).

Hi Everyone,
Rather than getting more & more frustrated about some items not functioning properly in the latest snapshot version I took the advice of a by the name of 'DoctorG' & completely uninstalled the snapshot version & then installed the latest stable version & at least so far this version does in fact seem to actually be more 'stable' (no pun intended of course).
Merry Christmas To Each And Everyone

Paste and Go works like a page refresh if the buffer contains part of the address. For example, page "vivaldi.com" is open and buffer is "vald". It's a pity that this annoying bug hasn't been fixed for so long.

I was pleasantly surprised to see that my bug report (VB-93768) was addressed. However ... every time I start the snapshot fresh, there is a dark edge to the side of the browser window. I tried minimizing the window to the taskbar, then opening up the window again. The dark edge was gone. Can you guys continue to investigate this? Seems your fixing the initial bug turned up another bug, unfortunately. I've also done a graphic (see below) to illustrate the problem. Thanks for your work on Vivaldi. Gonna tag a few people here to try and ensure this nagging issue is taken care of (soon, hopefully). Thanks! @Ruarí @atlemo @miky @mib2berlin

@Omnimaxus
There was reports about the edge, some was for Windows 11 are fixed and some for Windows 7 are fixed internally.

Cheers, mib

@mib2berlin I'm using Windows 10, so ...

One more thing. If I could pay for Vivaldi in the form of a lifetime license, I would. Best browser hands down.

@kocho: it works in my Vivaldi 5.7.2887.3 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Perfect! Just what I was looking for - to fix the broken address bar after the update.
Vivaldi is the best piece of software ever. It is the only one I am looking forward to an update to see the fixes and new features. All other software is being ruined by new features.

Zoom buttons are broken when Page Zoom is placed in the navigation bar.
