Feature requests for 1.7

@Blueridge
There could be a combination of both, like using sites' icons + text or being able to define the size of the thumbnails to vastly increase the number of links displayed on the screen. -
@kbrc21: There's an option in the latest snapshot - "Always load pinned tabs."
-
Add "bookmark link" to context menu.
Currently you have to open a page to be able to bookmark the link. I want to bookmark the link directly and open the page later (some other day when I have enough time to read it). -
Prevent web-browser fingerprinting.
Currently it seems to be possible to almost uniquely identify a user by what the browser tells to the webpage's server. Part of it is inevitable but there should be the possibility to decide about the amount of information given over.
Try it: https://amiunique.org/
Details are told here for example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canvas_fingerprinting -
Possibility to show stored passwords
It sometimes happens that you want to login to a website from some other computer. Or the maintainer of the site changes something and the automatic login doesn't work anymore.
In those cases it would be useful to have the password displayed to the user. -
@ghpy - for now you will have to go to chrome://settings/passwords
-
Easy to create site specific settings for cookies, etc.
Like in Opera 12 it should be possible to easily create site specific settings from the context menu with the address already filled in (and the possibilty to change this address www.example.com to *.example.com). -

chrome://settings/passwords
Thanks. I didn't know that (or forgot).
But this is something really annoying about Vivaldi. There are always two ways to get to the settings with different results. One way using icons gets you to just a little bit of the settings and the other way you have to know and remember some address to get to the important stuff.Edit: I suppose this comes from Vivaldi being based on Chromium. It would be great to add an icon/a link to the "first way" (Vivaldi's menu) to enable the forgetful user to get to the second way (Chromium's menu) without having to search the internet.
-
Add the option to choose your own background images in the Scheduled themes.
For example: If I have selected a color combination of red and blue, so I want image on background with a red boat at blue sea. And in another change theme with color combination of orange and dark blue, I want a background of a sunset on the savanna.
I hope you understand what I mean by that. Color themes match with the color of the background image.
-
@ghpy - That's because Vivaldi is substantially unfinished. It takes literally years to write all of the code for a browser. In the meantime, to pay for all that code writing, you have to have it out in the public sphere and being used to earn some income.
-
Make Vivaldi completely accessible for disabled people using screen readers on Windows, Linux and Mac.
-
@brsuperboy9 Not sure if it'll work, but there are command-line options to specify where to look for flash. You can modify the Vivaldi shortcut and try. You'd have to get the ppapi flash file(s) and put them in your user space somewhere first. See http://peter.sh/experiments/chromium-command-line-switches/#ppapi-flash-path. There's one for the version right below it too.
-
Focus search input field on opening history.
-
It would be nice to be able to customise reader view. Specifically, the way it turns all text black is kind of annoying on sites where text colour is used to convey information.
-
Start Bar as in Opera 12

Hello Vivaldi team!
I think I have find a bug; could you fix it, please?
If I search a text in page (e.g. on this forum), everything works fine (found text is highlighted and occurrences are counted); however, if I change a page (e.g. list another page in forum), the search window remains open but does not work correctly (at first it is not highlighting and at second it is not counting occurrences) and if I press "find next", it is finding (jumping with the page to the place where the text is) but not highlighting.Thank you,

This is not a feature request. Please report bugs in the bug report wizard
You may be trying to search for the text in the new page before it has loaded. Wait for it to load, then press F3 to find the same text, or Ctrl F to search with a new string.

I dont think it is because of not loaded page, you can try it yourself; try to find text in this forum and change pages.
Everything is working as long as the text is found (i.e. as long as searched text is on those pages you visit).
But since the first time you visit a page without that text (i.e. the search result is empty – and it is correct), the search function stop to work correctly for the next time.
Then you can visit pages where the text is and press "find next" but it still shows 0 of 0 found and no highlight.However, I am deeply sorry that I posted it here, it is not a feature request; I will report it as a bug.
I hope you will give me mouse gesture for "copy document address" as I asked before xDHave a nice day,

UrzaNo, I can confirm this is an issue. Urza, please let me know when you file the bug and I'll add my comments on it too.
I hit this same issue on this very thread. I was searching for the word bookmark, and every time I would click the next page button it wouldn't show any results, so I assumed that the word wasn't on each page. Then after like 15 pages I just decided to search again manually, and boom bookmarks was on the page half a dozen times even though the search said there was none. So even though the search field was still displaying after loading the next page, and appearing like it had searched and found no results, the search term did in fact exist. Either it should disappear after loading a new page, or initiate the search again and show the correct results.

I have already reported it as a bug in appropriate form.
