Feature requests for 1.5
-
I don't see the old post, so I'll redo it again
The bold ones, are my "most wanted"Team_Vivaldi wrote:
11. Ability to position ALL bars in ALL positions relative to the web content, and to each other
14. Re-sizable tab tiles
21. Movable buttons, add/remove buttons and UI partsNice.
It should be possible to use custom .png for buttons and set also tab height and disable "icon on tabs" (useful for vertical tab) and put the "less used" extensions in a sub-menu like this below or even making possible to move them in sidebar, not as web panels but as true extensions, or maybe both choices.
(I did in rush, it's just for example: in my case I only use often 2 of my 10 enabled extensions)Team_Vivaldi wrote:
27. Bookmark menu button on Address Bar.Completing also the bookmark bar with context menus and dragging.
Team_Vivaldi wrote:
4. Persistent content blocking
5. Persistent image controlIf it includes better cookie management, as Vanilla cookie manager does (whitelist/blacklist), it's perfect
Other things:
a) Autohiding for all the bars and show on mouse over with custom margin activation in pixel even in window mode
b) Skinnable and scalable context menus (maybe could also follow the themes).
c) Script section in settings to hooks what we like - both for webpages and for Vivaldi UI
d) Something like an (optional) crash reporter which make/send you a dump to help correct future bugs/regressions if useful
e) From sidebar: option to open bookmarks and downloads in new tab/window and fully replace the "old" Material UI vivaldi://downloads with the one seen in Vivaldi sidebar (with some details, maybe).
f) Fix missing icons for chrome://about, chrome://settings and vivaldi://bookmarks.
g) "Reload all tabs" option
h) Addressbar should allow to erase bookmarks (after confirm) like it does for addresses visited.
i) Simplify theme changer by hours: probably is better to put the time interval manually and use the bar which show the colours only as reference.
j) Custom image for main toolbar (titlebar/addressbar/bookmarkbar) block and maybe custom patterns for blend them with themes.
k) Custom favicons for bookmarks.
l) Some settings for mouse/keyboard scrolling speed
m) Go button
n) Option to do this (partial site info) and to hide disabled/unwanted buttons.
o) Put "most useful" chrome://flags options as "save as .mht" and "hardware acceleration" directly in vivaldi settings
p) History should have look-and-feel of Vivaldi (that's is better XD)
q) A profiler when possible (maybe just a GUI as it seems now it's possible via command line)
r) Hybrid mouse/keyboard shortcut for links>tabs (customizable) as explained here (and context menu for "opening in same tab")
s) A "boss-key" and a "minimize to tray".
t) Vivaldi process(es) priority on windows (with w10 stock task manager the option is gone XD)
u) .gif start policies (by site) including delayer option (start only when loaded)
w) Import/export passwords stored in a plain database (maybe password protected?) in Vivaldi(s)
y) (If applicable) Checkbox to skip (only on dev) the next version released and one to rollback to previous version dev version (like an incremental update between the two). However, this is more for users than for devs but help to have a stable but updated Vivaldi (like an always working Release Candidate).
> Other fixes/things that were asked/planned/in development -
Please PM me if any of these have been implemented, and I will remove them from this listβ¦

Don't think many browsers support this (and none of the major ones for sure), but there are lot of people that would find this useful.
Selectable sound output device (instead using the OS default)

@RRR13:
- Add 'Fast Forward' function to rocker gesture by pressing holding left mouse button followed by right click (Opera 12 had this).
Are you sure there is such a thing and you are not confusing it with the regular forward and backward rocker gestures?
Opera 12 would fast forward with a rocker gesture. Made viewing message boards very quick.
Similarly, Opera 12 would fast forward if you hit spacebar when at the bottom of a page. Vivaldi seems to do this as well, I never knew that until now.

link preview in popup
Same as the old extension for firefox Cool Previews: https://cool-previews.br.uptodown.com/windowsThis option would also be amazing! For a link on hold, and has an extension for Firefox : https://addons.mozilla.org/pt-BR/firefox/addon/open-link-in-silent-tab/.

First two suggestions I wrote in separate topic. As this topic is for all suggestions, I'm writing them here too.
1. Larger space above tabs in non-maximized window (like in Opera 12, Opera 39, Chrome or Firefox) for two reasons: a) to make possible moving the window easier and b) prevent resizing the browser window, when you want to click on thin bar above stacked tabs. (I'm using Vivaldi on Windows)
2. Highlight the active tab in the preview of stacked tabs.
3. Include Start page background color/image into themes, to automatically change with theme schedules.
4. Possibility to share screen on Google Hangouts.
5. Fix this annoying bug, which is in the 1.4 version too. Please, I'm begging you.
6. Thumbnails for speed dial folders.
About suggestions from other peoples:
Some people suggested tab stacking like in Opera 12. I consider Vivaldi tab stacking several time better than it was in Opera 12, where I hated that function (there was also no way to turn off). So, dear developers, please, even if you are going to add Opera 12 stacking to Vivaldi, do it as alternative, do not change current Vivaldi stacking (maybe just resizing the stack would be useful, but not expanding and collapsing like in Opera). :lol:Frequent requests:
23. Full password management/visibilityI'm very happy, that Vivaldi does not show the passwords, like Chrome or Opera 39, because if the computer is not password protected (e.g. my computer at work), everyone can view my saved passwords (otherwise Windows password will be asked). Password visibility will be useful only when Vivaldi will have a master password, which will be asked to view saved passwords.
-
28. Image properties dialogue on right-click menu. Exif data, image dimensions, bit-depth, file format.
And also a "reload image" on right-click menu. Old opera had this I think and it was useful sometimes when an image doesn't load with the page or there is some other problem with it.

fix selinux denial bug [https://vivaldi.net/en-US/forum/extensions/14910-selinux-denial-warning].
i would like to request modifications to defaults, as long as the login feature is in development:
-most browsers have a (alt+d) shortcut to focus URL, such as firefox, chrome, and qupzilla.
-firefox has abbreviated options to add adblocker, qupzilla has native adblocker
-based on popularity of https everywhere and privacy badger, i request easy-enable options for all eff extensions.don't worry, i didn't request all my defaults. just common ones. it would help my petty human brain get used to browserspace. after all, we all need to do that. at least until the singularity anywayβ¦

Request: In the bookmark panel, the ability to switch between full view (what Vivaldi has now) and split view (as in Opera 12). The toggle control to switch views would be a button above the title bar and below the search window where the other buttons are.
-
I basically said this in the 1.4 release blog:
"- Tab animations.
- Vivaldi's own font rendering.
- Vivaldi's own smooth scrolling.
- Improved search bar options. I want my search text to be erased from the search bar immediately after entering the search, so I don't have to leave it there and delete it myself. I also want the option to open searches in the search bar in a new tab.
- Vertical list tab cycler. I want one that looks and functions exactly like O12's did. I want my custom shortcuts that cycles through tabs to trigger the tab cycler, and if it's vertical, it'll be an easy list to navigate. It just makes sense.
- History panel/History page. It'll help make Vivaldi more complete, and I think it's about time to have one.
- A setting that will make all rounded corners absolute. I want 4px to make all corners in the browser 4px.
- Ability to clear cache on exit.
- Performance/CPU/RAM improvements."
Quite a bit of likes on this. I think it would be great to have, especially the tab cycler feature. The problem with the current one is not just that it's horizontal and not vertical, but that it doesn't appear when I use my custom shortcuts to cycle through tabs(alt + A & alt + S to go left and right through tabs). In O12, this was no problem, so it'd be great to see this interesting feature in 1.5.
Other than that, please fix the mouse cursor that stays on the screen in fullscreen videos, as this is one of my very few annoyances with Vivaldi.
On the Linux version, pressing alt triggers the menu like it does on Windows, but pressing alt again doesn't make it disappear, where it does on Windows. It's a little more annoying using Vivaldi on Linux than on Windows for this reason. Also, in Ubuntu GNOME 16.04, the menus, notifications, and context menus for Vivaldi are ugly looking compared to how they look in Linux Mint 18 or Windows. Don't know if this is within your control or not, but thought I'd mention it.
Also, one thing you can fix as well is the "hibernate tab/tab stack" options that appear in every tab. This is great, but for tabs and tab stacks that are already hibernated, these options don't need to appear. I know this feature was already perfected before 1.3, but since the fix for 1.3, it's been showing up for every tab and tab stack regardless of whether or not it's already hibernated. It doesn't bother me, as I already know which of my tabs are hibernated and not, and I'll take this over the earlier bug in which it didn't appear at all regardless, but if this could be perfected again, that would be great.
Vivaldi is slowly getting to be a near-perfect browser. Chromium 53 helped quite a bit with the bloat, but it still needs a lot of work. Once you guys work on the RAM/CPU/Disk usage, possibly strip some unneeded parts of Chromium you're not using, and overall add polish to the features like you had with O12, and further polishing of UI, man, this'll be a very solid browser!

Open link in new tab on current stack
If i open multiple tabs from links on a single page, it could be much simpler if they all stayed grouped

Open link in new tab on current stack
Already available. Settings, Tabs, Tab-stacking, Open Tabs in Current Tab Stack.

1. Proxy settings only for Vivaldi like a Firefox
-
Variant layout support:
Now that I have a system that again has both portrait and landscape displays configured, I would find it very handy to have the ability to quickly or automatically switch layouts β when in landscape mode, I prefer having my sidebar open on the left, and my tab bar open on the right. When in portrait mode, I would prefer to have the tab bar on top, and the sidebar not open.
I think it'd be super spiffy if (probably only when maximized) the layout could automatically shift that for me, and only for the window(s) that (is/are) maximized on that display.
Alternatively, if that's quite difficult to implement, at least having a menu option on the tab bar right click, to allow it to change to the top/bottom/left/right for that specific window, without saving the preference for all windows would be nice in the meantime.

I'm personally waiting for the ability to configure chorded (FlipForward/FlipBack) mouse buttons. That is the only thing stopping me from switching to Vivaldi as my primary browser. Hope it comes later in 1.5!

Here I throw few my ideas:
[ol]- 2-column/bar tabs, one for groups, second for tabs from selected group.
- Side panel customization: switch thickness, tabs panel as in Opera 12 (for hiding), extensions working in www panels, etc.
- Option to overlap page when side panel is opened, rather than resize.
- Adress bar options: autofill up to '/' (just like in Firefox), click behavior (select all, put carriage in indicated place etc.).
- Carriage highlight when hovering over text to help putting it in right place.
- Different deafult folders for downloading different file types (or even different websites).
- Keyboard+mouse shortcuts.
- RSS (really liked it, couldn't find good one since O12).
- Customizable context menu.
- Kill those annoying black blinking ractangles.
- Truly portable Vivaldi: Vialadi on USB pendrive that can be used both on Windows and Linux (or at least instructions how to do it).

Hi, i've been firefox user for a long time, and i'm beginning to switch to vivaldi. However there are a few things I'd love to see in vivaldi. Can you please add the following options:
-
Option to change colour of right-click menu and Vivaldi-button menu (and other) backgrounds and fonts. Maybe it would be good if they were taken from current theme? It's really annoying when i'm using dark theme and i see white menu.
-
Tor-enabled private browsing mode
-
configurable buttons, like the one from here https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/facebook-messenger-panel/ - I'd love to have abitity to add such buttons and configure them myself, to show fb messanger, deezer/spotify, some forum maybe. As the expandable window isn't a big one, maybe it should have option allowing use mobile versions of sites. OR add option to switch between mobile and full versions of sites in current version of web panels. (now it's mobile only, and many sites, like messanger.com or deezer.com show only google play link)
