Workspaces – Vivaldi Browser snapshot 2970.3

@mahuaer
Ah, this is MacOS, I cant test this.
Please add always your Vivaldi version and OS if you report issues.
The Vivaldi version is may useless in this thread but useful in all other threads.
You can add a signature with your system specs in the forum profile settings if you like.

Cheers, mib

@mib2berlin ok

@koloveli Already answered about it, and why this is not a protection against fake websites.

Do you even read our answers?

Can you stop it, now? This forum is not your playground, and once was enough.

I am confused about a certain aspect of workspaces, I have been using them and really enjoying it.

So don't get me wrong, awesome move.
However I had thought they could be more like containers.
Let me explain!
Now in addition to my work I have to manage kids homework and all of them have different accounts on google classwork where I have to upload and monitor homework (kids are young). Workspaces seemed to me like an easy way to do a workspace for each kid and manage their homework whilst still able to access my own google accounts(google kicks you out as soon as you login to classrooms) without opening a bunch of profiles which in your words are like having another browser open. Working from home has its challenges.

I would still create profiles for them as I wouldn't want them on my browser, plus they like to own it and apply themes etc which profiles are great for.
I just hoped it might be a way to have multiple web apps with different logins a bit like webcatalog does with its app browser.

Perhaps that's in the pipeline sorry this has turned into a feature request, it was really meant to be feedback on workspaces.
Which are actually awesome so far.

Currently, the extensions in the panels don't work, right? (Stylus for example)

[DoctorG]

@Phosphorus As i could read over months some do, some not. I do not know not which ones work.

kids google classwork

why are you doing this to your kids, google monitoring them (and you) for life.

what you are requesting is at #1 spot in the requests, https://forum.vivaldi.net/category/185/desktop-feature-requests, already mentioned in this thread as well, but it could be difficult/too demanding to do with Chromium code which Vivaldi is based on. Your only option in that regard would be Firefox with the containers extension.

(For educational and environmental-friendly purposes: Linux, which was network-aware and multi-user from the beginning (being UNIX-like), contrary to Microsoft with MS Windows, whose only purpose was to sell as many single-user PC it could with that trashy OS on it, has a multi-seat feature (with Xorg as the display server) where one PC can be used with N amount of monitors and (N) keyboards+mouses, meaning all users could be working and be online on the same time on the same computer. )

@DoctorG @Phosphorus Stylus user styles were working both in Web panels and on the Stylus user style manager itself until last January, IIRC. But I think that it’s a Stylus update that broke it, since I had not updated Vivaldi the day is stopped to work there.

@Ruarí said in Workspaces – Vivaldi Browser snapshot 2970.3:

Workspaces: Marginally more effort to make than stacks but arguably this makes them more permanent. They also provide a far cleaner, focussed look to your tab bar than lots of stacks. You view one workspace at a time and will not be distracted with tabs that are unrelated to your current activity (though you can also have stacks within workspaces if you want the best of both worlds ). Some benefits over just using Windows are that they are faster to switch between, and are easier to distinguish because you setup unique names and icons.

I'm trying to understand/use workspaces but I'm not getting the order of things. For example, so I open tabs and then move them to workspace. Do I create multiple workspaces, open it & then open the tabs/windows I want to store in the workspace. It appears to me that Workspaces will capture whatever tabs are open if I don't want them in a single workspace.. There is no "Help" page for workspaces. TIA

[Hadden89]

@janrif Workspaces are useful for conceptually categorizing tabs/windows when you need them (eg: home, work, shopping) without the necessity of stacking or doing more window or profiles.
The help page will probably come, but we have to wait it lands on stable.
But how users will use it is clearly subjective.

[ayhangur]

The window does not move when the tab bar is at the top.

[kamalesh]

I always have my status bar set to "Status Info Overlay."

Noticing that when hovering on links, the URL has been obscured and unreadable (in the last 2 snapshots on macOS) with both light & dark backgrounds.

[Hadden89]

@kamalesh If you don't use browser mods, report it. Perhaps is a bug.

[Phosphorus]

@trit34: Nop, the problem was Vivaldi, using old versions of Vivaldi it works.
If I install the older versions of Stylus in the new version of Vivaldi it doesn't work.
I'm not exactly sure what version broke the panels but It was two versions stables ago at least

[Phosphorus]

@doctorg: Yep, I see a thread in the forum recently, I was using an old version of Vivaldi before updating it.

[Hadden89]

@Phosphorus Have to be said extensions were never supposed to work because chromium hasn't a sidebar/webpanel.
I actually think some restrictions in blink have broken them (thus Vivaldi inherited it).

[Lu9]

From what I could gather about this Workspaces feature, will that also theoretically actually grant a somewhat significant performance/responsiveness boost on the GPU side of things, (at least for people with hundreds of tabs opened) considering there will be less tabs actually displayed on the tab bar? Cuz if so, I'm definitely highly anticipating this. I already am regardless of that, though.

[g_bartsch]

@Lu9 Workspaces dramatically reduced system resource use for me.

[bittin]

Started using Vivaldi Snapshot on Arch Linux today as chromium does not have picture in picture support and i only have one screen, and Firefox does not work that well on this HP Skylake computer on Arch Linux with Ikes Vivaldi snapshot packages, i blame the boyfriend

but so far it does all i want
