Adjusting item numbers in URL drop down / More adblock compatiblity work – Vivaldi Browser snapshot 3658.3

@pathduck: You know me too well: Happy to go mucking in files where I don't belong.

However, in my Preferences file, there is no text string "dropdown_size." Not even any occurrence of "dropdown".

Edited to add: Oops. I was looking in User Data\Default.install. Found the correct Preferences file now in User Data\Default. Found the "dropdown_size" text string, changed the 20 to 200, but Vivaldi is still only showing 20 items.

@pathduck: Now, to go on a different tangent, I do see multiple
"OMNI_RESULT_TYPED_HISTORY_SEARCH","url" strings with the items that should appear on the Search Bar drop-down, but don't. The only item(s) that appear in the Search Bar drop-down are items searched from the Address Bar. The correct items for the Search Bar drop-down are there as individual "OMNI_RESULT_TYPED_HISTORY_SEARCH","url" items, but not displayed.

@wpcoe Then you're looking in the wrong Preferences

~/AppData/Local/Vivaldi/User Data/Default
$ jq . Preferences | grep dropdown_size
        "dropdown_size": 30,

@pathduck: Yeah, I found the correct file, but changed the 20 (which it said) to 200, and I still only see 20 items in the drop-down list.

Hmmm. When I set it to 200 in the Preferences file and then start Vivaldi and go to Tools > Settings > Address Bar > Drop-Down Maximum size, it says 1337, but as soon as I move the slider it changes to 20. Maybe that gives a hint to what might be wrong on my Vivaldi setup?

I did a test with 35 in the Preferences, and again in Tools > Settings > Address Bar > Drop-Down Maximum size it shows 35 until I move the slider, and then it changes to 20.

@wpcoe Did you check the setting if it is set to 200 in the UI?
Did you do this while the browser was closed?

Look, there's no point me trying to troubleshoot what you're doing. They will change this to allow more results, maybe not 200 or 1337 but enough for most.

If you can't make it work just wait.

I just knew me bragging about changing it would backfire with more troubleshooting others messing

@pathduck: Okay, I'll leave you alone.

Yeah, don't mess with the slider ok? It resets it - funny that, it's like they don't want us to hack the JSON directly

There's nothing wrong with your setup - you're just changing stuff you're not supposed to change.

Now, to go on a different tangent, I do see multiple

Now why would you ask me this? I have no idea what you're talking about. Did you think I have developed this?
