Feature requests for 1.6
-
@pafflick Smart Quotes automatically change "straight quotes" to “typographical quotes” without having to remember or input any ANSI codes. Enabling Numlock is a new one on me. I have never had to use it in my other apps, including Opera 12.17, but it helps in Notepad too.

@rkzn When one clicks on Reply at bottom right of a post, it inserts the user's name but not the entire post. One must use the Quote link to quote the post. It's not necessary to quote the post. The reply contains a back-link to read the initial post. This saves space.

@RRR13 Isn't the default shortcut
[CTRL]
+[0]
(that is widely used across multiple programs and not just the browsers, by the way) enough? -
@Pesala OK, I get it now. You wan them to be converted into smart quotes by default. That is something that I didn't thought of, since in my native language the smart quotes are just nonexistent and thus I never felt the urge to use them. Your suggestion wasn't clear tbh.
@Pesala said in Feature requests for 1.6:
Enabling Numlock is a new one on me. I have never had to use it in my other apps (...)
Did you mean using the NumLock or the smart quotes that you've just mentioned earlier? Because when it comes to NumLock, I can hardly type special codes in any of the apps that I tried with the NumLock off (like Opera 12, Vivaldi, MS Word and others), so I find it really surprising that you've manage to get this far, typing the codes with NumLock off...

Ability to use external download-manager! !

@D0J0P already here https://forum.vivaldi.net/post/77889

@Gregor Search Field is useless because it's doubled by search function in address bar.
Search Field would be useful if it will open new tab, to not lose current page. It's absurd when I have to open new tab just to use Search Field.
It also doesn't work at all when we want to choose other searchengine after text is typed, new tab can't be opened even with Alt/Shift shortcut.
I don't know why it's not obvious like already in Opera years ago. -
@Pesala with that kind of layout http://i.imgur.com/EB7VtsQ.png and many other options http://i.imgur.com/N4CYnKC.png

It would like to see the download speed in the "Downloads" panel (additionally to the remaining time). It should be also wrap over to the next line if the panel is too narrow.
-
Clicking on a download whilst downloading to open it automatically after the download is completed (and clicking again to deactivate).
And clicking on "open" instead "save" in the download file dialog should save the the file in the temporary folder instead of the download-folder.
-
A passwordmanager like the old opera:
- Pressing ctrl+enter to automatically enter password and press enter or if more users are available for site give a dialog where the user can be chosen by arrow keys and enter
- An option to show the key button in the adressbar like in the old opera
-
Synchronization!!! Without it ALL features and fix`s - does not matter at all...
-
@HTDx64 I can't quite understand why this is not the topmost feature request. This keeps me off of using Vivaldi. Yes, privacy, but you could at least set up some custom synch options like Dropbox/Single file/anything.
-
Clicking the active tab should make it the bottom-most of all tabs (like in Opera 12). Currently clicking the active tab in Vivaldi doesn't have any effect.

@ghpy In Settings, Tabs, Tab Features, enable "Minimize Tab."
-
@RRR13
I know what Jon said, nevertheless M3 is one of the features I wish to see in 1.6 (rather than in 2.0). That's what this thread is for: to create a priority list.
On the other hand you are right, though. There are so many things which still work better in Opera 12 than in Vivaldi that I will have to use both browsers in parallel for some more time anyway. -
@Pesala
Thanks for your reply, but that setting only minimizes the tab without moving it to the bottom like Opera does. -
If would be wonderful if a future version have the possibility to manage multiple user profiles (like Chrome or Firefox).

A way to persist UI customization between Updates
-
- [b]In-line Developer Tools[/b] [VB-2776]: support for in-line (not popup) Developer Tools.
- [b]Native Windows 10 Notifications[/b]: Currently Vivaldi uses Chrome notifications and they appear on top of my tabs.
- [b]Edit Speed Dial URLs with an "Edit" Context Menu option[/b]: Currently we have to use the Bookmarks Menu to do that. I don't ever use the Bookmarks menu.
- Allow Settings for extensions right in the address bar for better UX.
- [b]Allow reordering of Speed Dial Tabs[/b] [VB-218]
- [b]Allow customization of Speed Dial thumbnails[/b]
- [B]M3: Let us set up the feeds refresh interval to at least 5 or 15 minutes[/B].
