Personal Showstopper to let Opera 12 RIP:
- The Bookmark Search should not only show the found Bookmark, it should show the Folder-Path to (fe. like in Opera grayed out)!!!
Did you see the Problem!?
-
If you press the + in the Bookmark-Sidepanel to add a Bookmark it should not generate a blank Bookmark, it should be pre-filed with the actual page, with the cursor in the Name field (maybe you can add another icon for it, fe. the bookmark icon). Now the only acceptable, but not good, way for me is to drag and drop it from the address bar -> click edit -> select the name -> edit it, it's annoyingly complicated. If you really need an empty Bookmark to start with, you can put that in the right click menu or use two icons.
-
Better download handling per Mime-Type/File-Extention. To make it possible to download pictures automatically in the background.
Other features i would like to have (most from Opera, for some you had to edit config files):
- An option to hide the Screenshot in the "Edit Bookmarks" menu, it costs to much place. With the ability to expand it only when you need it, or better show it in pop-up with a mouse-over effect over an icon or a mini screenshot besides the Description.
- Reorder Searchengines with the ability to insert visible dividers (fe. thin lines, ideally with custom names right aligned).
- A custom Searchengine "Find in Page" so i don't have to press ctrl+f, just past it in the ever showing search field with a middle press (in Linux).
- Edit the search engines by right click on the search bar -> "Edit Searchengines".
- Reorder Extention AND let us get to the Extention menu through the right click menu.
- Change the ratio in the Page-tiling mode for the pages (from fix 50/50, 33/33/33...) with a mouse handler between the pages. Like on the Windows 10 desktop.
- Spellcheck for more then one language at the same time. I think many people need their language plus English.
- Right click on the address bar -> "Open in [other installed browser(s)]".
- History- & OpenTabsAndWindows-Sidepanel.
So, this are the most important for me. 1-3 are musts, 5+8 are near musts and the rest are "i can but don't want to live without ;)"-features.
But thank you for the best modern browser yet and the possibility to go beyond Opera!

That's already implemented (at least in the Windows version). I don't know why my language is duplicated in the menu though, but at least the spellchecking works fine...

I see a lot of feature requests on Speed Dial but one that I don't remember seeing is the ability to drag and drop to organize folders in the Speed Dial.
It may not be a function that we use very often, but in the case that you have added a ton of Speed Dial and wishes to reorganize them into folders, this will make it much more convenient.Also. as some users might have mentioned before, I would like the tab stacking function to be more similar to the one we had in Opera 12.
I think being able to expand and collapse the tab stack would give us more flexibility in working with tabs.Also with regards to tabs, I think that it will be good if we are given the option to enlarge the size of the tab preview so that we will be able to see more details from that tab itself instead of just a small thumbnail, which may not be able to tell us much at all.
It will also be great if Vivaldi can replicate the way Opera 12 organize the bookmark panel, allowing us to use a split view to show the folders in the top section and each individual bookmarks in the bottom section.
It is indeed very exciting to see many of our highly requested features slowly getting integrated with the browser!
I've been using Vivaldi for over a year since its technical preview days, and I will continue to be very patient for the day more features get worked out, for the highly-anticipated sync and mail to arrive, and for me to finally be able to claim that Vivaldi has beaten Opera 12 hands down. (: -
Hello,
Please add the Links Panel.
Incredibly useful feature to do two things:
- Table of content!
One can open an index page and lock the links panel of it. Then the links panel serves the table of content to navigate through the documentation (thanks to the "lock" links are opened in the tab on the right). Sites like http://linux-ip.net/html/index.html become much more handy. Would also be cool to have a filter of the links there. - Bulk download.
- Table of content!

Update Tab order for Stacking Tab
Problem: After we move tab into a stack or create a new stack, the tab order is all mess-up because Vivaldi never reorder the tab according to the order of tab display inside the GUI.
As a result, when we close a tab, the next focus tab is always unpredictable. Also, sometimes when we switch to next/previous tab, we end up switching not to next/previous tab display on the tab bar, instead it switch to other tab.
Solution: Always update the tab order according to the order tab appear in GUI after we stacking or modified the tab order.
I primary using 1 & 2 key to switch tab, also mouse RB + wheel with tab cycler in tab order.
Is this a bug? If yes then please fix it. If not then please consider to implant this missing feature. Tq

Need Fixed Tab Width & Horizontal Scrollbar for Tab bar on Top/Bottom Position
We have that feature on Vertical tab bar, why not on the horizontal tab bar?
Also, please made the scrollbar thickness customizable, because fat scrollbar looks really ugly , & it took up too much space.
Tqvm.

I think that auto hibernation after some specified time would be very useful.
-
Quick commands should use a 'fuzzy match' for commands. Meaning inexact searches should give reasonable results. Think sublime text's command palette.
For instance, Sublime Text puts emphasis on matching acronyms ('NW' would match 'New Window') and allows characters to be omitted ('ew Wndw' matches New Window)
Basically, not requiring less typing to get commands. -

@xxxLCxxx said in Feature requests for 1.5:
Both for the Windows version of Vivaldi:
1) switch to disable the execution of programs (on by default)
This requires you to query the targets for the specific file extension and ensure that the file won't be executed on open. Additionally, you could maintain a list of Windows file extensions for executables (.exe, .com – but there are more).
The fact that Vivaldi treats extensions like '.mp3' and '.exe' the same (when clicking 'open') is "problematic" for obvious reasons.
Difficulty to implement: low2) removal of unnecessary files after Vivaldi has updated
Alternatively this could be put into the update dialog (extra switch).
This should be easy for you – and only for you – as you know, which files are actually needed and which are obsolete.
I noticed that Backups were increasing in size. It turned out, that the culprit was Vivaldi leaving residues of old versions after each update.
Difficulty to implement: lowThis wouldn't work on linux though; you can have an executable called
notavirus.jpg
and you can still run it if it has execute permissions. The same way, if a file does NOT have execute permissions, you can't execute it (or at least you get a window asking you to add the permission and then run it, so the user would notice it wants to execute actual code) -
The old opera had an option to auto reload a page on given intervals. You could right click on the page and select "Reload every..." from the context menu. This is useful when you are watching content that is likely to change like a bug list, or just testing your html/css.
Also, the tab tiling feature is great but it would be more useful to allow tiles to be resized.

Could you please make it auto focusing to the URL input box when one use shortcuts to turn on the address bar?
Usually I would hide it... but when I turn it on, most likely I want to type in an address, except when I want to check the URL or copy it...
BTW, could you please also let the status bar show the URL when I put the mouse hangover the tab? And and "copy URL" entry in the right click menu? Then, more likely I'm willing to type in...
Thanks.

Beside a complete Opera-Mail-Client replacement I would appreciate to substitute my currently used extensions (EMail Link, Smart RSS, uBlock origin) with Vivaldi build-in functions.
Another item on my wish list is a keyboard shortcut for the way images are displayed (in the German UI it is the dropdown in the status panel "Bilder anzeigen" (show pictures), "Nur gespeicherte Bilder" (stored pictures only) and "Keine Bilder" (no pictures).

good to be possible to save tabs in stack as bookmark folder but I would like I could name that bookmark folder before I save.
-
There are many times i can't find the scroll bar, when its getting smaller for example (vertically), so i would like to have:
Feature that lets me color the scrolling bar for better visibility.
Alsore there are times when websites make it that there is no scroll bar at all or its so small its hard to grab with the mouse. (yes i know there is a scroll wheel on the mouse usually, but i like to move it manually)
Feature to overwrite custom scrollbar sizes, so basically make the scrollbar stay the same size, shape and color i want it to be.
Vivaldi needs better Bookmarking system too, which tabs i want to bookmark, in which folder i want them to save, create new folder and save there etc..

It exists already and it's called Custom CSS. All you need to do, is to set custom parameters for your scrollbars (like width, colors etc.) and apply them to all (or specific) websites using an extension, for example this one.
