@burnout426 We accounted for Fitts’ law for the tabs but might have forgotten about it for the other buttons. Oh, well, you live and you learn.

I like the new tab look, but if THAT is what the Vivaldi team is concentrating on... I'll see if I go to compact mode, it saves some pixels.

@longlife: You can click on the tripple dot icon on most of the widgets and select between "regular" and "tall" sizes.

@burnout426: We are working on a fix for this. Thanks.

I love the new design and new the dashboard feature. Way to go!
Also, time to use the dashboard UI to implement Kanban boards!

With the updated design, tabs are now floating. This opens up possibilities like this completely rounded tab shape, which was not previously possible.

I always knew and was always confident that the team would come to their senses and do the right thing. Once again the team did not let me down.

PS.

@Stardust

I understand you perfectly. It has always been difficult to change misconceptions and come to your senses, but it is never too late.

I wonder why so many designers work hard to make tabs not look like tabs. It's like everyone wants to be different in some way!

I'm liking the idea of a dashboard, especially for a browser with so many features as Vivaldi.

@Pathduck

I did already

Thot

Love the new Dashboard, but will stick in Compact-Mode.

Oh, BTW, I am afraid I have some bad news for some people (hopefully none of you).

The Bad News(TM) is that after the update to Chromium 130 in this snapshot, Vivaldi will not be able to install on any Mac running macOS 10.15 (or older). macOS 11 is now the oldest version of the OS supported.

Of course, none of you are using such an old Operating System version, right? Right???

For the interested, here is some light(?) reading.

V menu is not aligned, that should be fixed, not sure or this is it?

New skin works but this phantom clicking that actually works with middle of the mouse cursor, who invented that in general is just dumb.

Why 6.10 and not 7.0?

MasterLeo29

Looove the Dashboard! Any (crazy) plans to allow for a easy (or 'easy-ish') way to create custom widgets for us who like to create/use one mod (or 10 xD) ?

Will this changes be on stable-branch anytime soon?

@doctacosa: Many years ago, when Firefox set the floating tabs everybody hated it. Now, almost all browsers offers that option

I am fine with my 0-rounded tabs

I predict circle tabs in the future!

@saduran: Eventually, maybe. We don’t offer any guarantees about future features and changes, and definitely don’t make any promises about specific dates or releases.

Never hated Firefox floating tabs, they were and still nice. I hated previous australis tabs.

And now Vivaldi copies Firefox floating tabs. I don't mind floating. I don't like rounded

@masterleo29: You can use any local HTML file for now.

Hi, the menu issue was reported here already, they work on it.
What is phantom clicking?
