Tab cycling keeps malfunctioning
-
Oh my god. You captured it on video. Thank you. No one seems to believe this is a thing. It. Is.
I switched back to Vivaldi 5.1, where this doesn't seem to happen. This has been broken for maybe A YEAR NOW. Makes Vivalidi unusable.

@jvivaldi885 @Aelius
It seams nobody report this to the bug tracker, no developer know about.
One have to reproduce it in a clean profile, then report it.For information on how to report a bug, see this URL: https://vvld.in/how-to-report-bugs
Once that is done, please share the bug number(beginning with VB-). Thanks.
On the form, you can add your email address. Once submitted, you'll get a confirmation. You can reply to this with any logs or further info.Cheers, mib

This was fixed in 5.7. It's broken again in 6.
-
@jvivaldi885 Then report issue to Vivaldi bug tracker. Once that is done, share the bug number (beginning with VB-). Thanks for helping us making Vivaldi better.

@DoctorG was closed as WONTFIX or otherwise last time. Even though Aelius even caught it on video. Sigh.

I will test, but tell:
- Which Vivaldi?
- Which OS?
- Is the order in tabs cycler "recently used" or "tab order"
I tried: 6.0.2979.15 Win 11 22H2 , Tab Cycler Order: Recently Used.
Works for me.
I tried many Ctrl+Tab and it switched between the two used tabs. -
This system is OS X 12.6.4; This Vivaldi is 6.0.2979.15 (Stable channel) (x86_64). "Active in Recently Used Order" is selected in Settings.
And I'm finding sometimes, at random, seldomly, when I CTRL-TAB, I'm not where I think I should be. It works great on recent 5.7, so I've gotten used to it working again; I use this laptop with 6 less often, so I don't see the behavior as often. But something absolutely feels off. I'm finding myself on tabs that I'm confident I wasn't just looking at.
I wish it was obvious and easily reproducible, but it just isn't.
Maybe it only happens on Mac; I don't use Windows enough to notice.

And that is the real world problem: if no internal tester and dev with a Mac or other OS can reproduce it, the report will not get the state Confirmed.
Please report the issue to bug tracker so we get a fresh report for 6.0 Stable!
-
Once I'm confidence this is real and I'm not imagining it, I'll try filing a new bug.
Thanks.
-
@jvivaldi885 Yes, i hope for you this time a internal with a Mac will reproduce it.

This is such a frustrating tendency with Vivaldi. There are countless bugs I literally record on video and when I post about them they never get any attention because "[shrug], it works for me. Closed. Wontfix. Sucks to suck."
-
@Aelius Sorry for you, but i did not close the bug.
I can understand your disappointment.I appreciate that users report bugs and create videos. I will link your posts and videos to the new report of @jvivaldi885 an add a link to forum.
That's all i can do for you users.//EDIT:
Waiting for a report from @jvivaldi885 or @Aelius - who want to write a report? -
Waiting for a report from @jvivaldi885 or @Aelius.

Okay, I created a report. VB-97263.
-
@Aelius Was set to Confirmed.
And i added your Gif to the report. -
Figured I'd chime in that I'm experiencing this exact same problem. Some times it switches fine to the most recently used tab. Other times it will switch to a random tab. I do the exact same thing as shown in the gif, just repeat control + tab. It should alternate between the same two, but it ends up jumping to other random tabs.

@coldkreap Hmm, I think I may have experienced this as well. But it may have been in combination with moving the mouse as well. Opera certainly had that problem in the past.
