Solved V 6.7 | Status Info Overlay shows while Status Bar set to Hide
-
@redmage Custom CSS fix outlined in this thread worked as holdover until an actual fix is pushed.
-
Is there any way to turn off the url previews that appear in the bottom left corner when you hover over a link?
-
@041744 Use the CSS code above.

This new behavior of the settings is not bugged in the way you all think it is. It’s the direct result of bug report VB-104287. Our old setup doesn’t make sense any more with the possibilities the toolbar editor introduced.
How it used to work:
- The status info could only be displayed in the status bar
- We had a three way settings switch between hiding the status bar, showing the status bar, or toggling the status info overlay depending on the state of the status bar.
Why the old way is faulty for the new setup:
There is no guarantee the status info element is in the status bar, it can be placed in any compatible toolbar. Let’s assume we place the status info element in the address bar. In case the address bar was hidden because we toggled it, or we opened mail, there was no way to show status info overlay because it depended solely on the visibility of the status bar, not the status info element itself!How it works right now:
Whenever no status info element is visible in any toolbar, the status info overlay is activated automatically.How it should work:
There should still be a way for people to both hide the status info element AND have the status info overlay disabled at the same time. This will likely require a settings change, which does not depend on a three way switch. A simple checkmark to turn the status info overlay off and on would probably be sufficient. Then the overlay would only show if both the setting is turned on and no status info element is visible in any part of the UI. -
Is it possible to have both status bar and info overlay at the same time with some css? (the setting is makes no sense why can't I have both, if it can be achieved through this bug then give me the bug please :D) oh the irony...

Heathen!
(Still looking for the place to put that CSS stuff for a portable version of Vivaldi, anyone?)

@asgeirtj If you don’t display the status info in the status bar, you get the overlay currently. Displaying both status info overlay and status info element is not possible. Please don’t add to the confusion by writing status bar when you really mean status info element. The status bar doesn’t have to include the status info, you can remove it.

@asgeirtj You don’t understand the concept. I don’t blame you though. Yes, it is currently absolutely possible without any kind of custom mod to display the status bar and the status info overlay at the same time. For this to work have the status bar visible, but have no status info element present in any toolbar, then the status info overlay will pop up when hovering a link. You have to discern between
status bar
,status info element
, andstatus info overlay
. These are three distinct elements which decide how your setup will relate to the present UI. -
A new version was just released but the bug wasn't fixed. Disappointing. It's getting really annoying.

We have already bug reports in bugtracker about overlay shows up when it was set to hidden.

@Onweerwolf Same here. Updated this morning, no change at all, and having the address pop up when I move the cursor over anything is annoying.

I just downgraded to 6.6.3271.57 and turned off automatic updates and the stupid url tooltips are gone.
