Snapshot 1.0.231.3 - Draggable tab bar, favicons in the address bar and spatial navigation improvements
-
The Gestures are called "FlipBack" and "FlipForward".
These gestures are really useful in Opera Bookmarks to expand all and collapse all. We have those commands in Vivaldi too on the context menu, but the gestures do not work yet. Flipback would also be useful for "Go to Parent folder" in Speed Dial as you suggest.

Interesting post in the forum:

Maybe Vivaldi developers should take a look? Or even Jon T.? -
… well, you released a new snapshot this week ... so somebody must be in the office
(or have you stocked a few snapshots to be released during summer vacation - just to keep us happy ) -
Okay, maybe in future)

Hmm, I used to be able to move the Vivaldi window by clicking and holding the left mouse button over the Panel. It does not seem to work anymore…
Win7x64 Vx32

You're not the first to mention it. Seems when they added the ability to drag using the tab bar, they removed it from the panel.
-
Thank you for your work.
It would be great that the widget/component/visual aid for page loading to be more visible, currently is hard to tell if the page is actually loading.
Please add an option for showing the url of speed dials in the respective tooltip.
Bug? The font size of menus and tabs does not match the font size of the user interface -
TONS of potential skin modifications by users will be coming down the pike once the browser is more or less complete. I mean, we can't even put the bookmarks bar on the side yet, but I don't bitch because I'n confident we will get to that stage.
-
There is a browser, as it happens, that has a draggable tab bar. It has a little handle at one end, to drag it. Unfortunately, it can only be dragged to left, right, bottom, top. It can't be dragged to a new position relative to other bars at the top.
-
I like "Not yet". It gives hope it will come.
-
I tended to use RMB+Wheel as the mouse equivalent of Ctrl+Tab, so it felt completely normal to me to use tab cycling order. If I'm in full screen or Ctrl+F11 mode then even more so.

Very easy to reproduce VB-8805 here.
1. Drag a tab to the other side of another tab
2. Release the LMB
3. Click and drag the same tab in any direction, or click and holdThe Maximised window is restored.
Also very easy to reproduct VB-8806.
UI scale is set to 120%
Windows 7 64-bit display settings 125%
Panel Toolbar is on the right
No previews in tabs -
Ok, thanks
Up for previous tab seemed more natural to me, I think because of reading direction. -
What still holds you back?
-
Amazing update. This is very quickly becoming my favorite browser to use. Sleek, functional, robust, and powerful. Everything I've ever wanted. Even though the extensions are in very limited support right now, the ones I use work just fine.
-
Vivaldi keep getting better and better and still is just an Alpha.
Counting the days. -
It's called Otter. I figured anyone who was interested in "heirs to Opera" would already know about it. And since it's nowhere near ready for prime time, I didn't want anyone mistaking that I was promoting it. I just was struck by the phrase "draggable tab bar" because, in the universe of browsers, there actually is such a thing.
-
Thank you for the dragable tab bar and for allowing middle click in the bookmark side panel when the scrollbar is present! Two on my biggest issues fixed, woo! Now if the last big issue could be fix as well, would be nice.
–--------------------------
Problem #1 : Opening multiple bookmarks(20+) at the same time cause the browser to lock up for a while, until all tabs are loaded up. This isn't an issue in Chrome, firefox and even IE. (While this has improve tremendously recently, it's still bad)
–--------------------------
Suggestion #1 : Put in an option to "hide" the speed dial folder from the Side panel bookmarks. It's redundant to have the speed dial folder there.
–--------------------------
Suggestion #2 : Allow the ability to set a custom static amount for each Rows and Columns for the speed dial. (like 4x6 or 5x4, etc..) And have it stay that way, always, no matter the size of the Vivaldi window, instead of the current Dynamic format where 6x3 rows and columns in fullscreen suddenly becomes 3x6 when placing Vivaldi on the side of the screen (windows Snap feature).
Basically make the speed dial resize itself smaller to bigger depending on the main window's size. -
Suggestion #1 really doesn't make any sense, if you think about it. ANY folder can be the speed dial folder, and you can display the contents of any folder INCLUDING the main bookmarks folder (as in my case) in Speed Dial. The way I do it, My main bookmarks folder is NAMED "Speed Dial" (though it could be named anything) and it is the same folder I display in speed dial, and it is the same folder I display on my bookmarks bar. I have identical access to top-level bookmarks, to folders and to subfolders, at least the ones I care about and use all the time, no matter where I look. There is a small folder I imported from IE which is outside the "Speed Dial" folder and which only appears in the side panel or bookmark manager, but it could just as easily be the other way around. It literally makes no sense to hide bookmarks from one view just because they can also be seen in another, irrespective of what the names of the views or folders are.
This is not redundancy. It is complete flexibility, and the next logical progression of the "views" technology from Old Opera, applying it to bookmarks in the way it was formerly applied to mail. There is only one copy of anything, so you avoid directory and data bloat, and duplicated files, but you can access anything from a theoretically infinite number of different "views."
IF "Speed Dial" were a folder with special properties that could only be seen on the start page and nowhere else, and which stored its contents in it own directory on the hard drive, what you suggest would not be out of line. This is not the case, however.

Problem #1 : To avoid waiting for anything, use open in background tab.
Suggestion #1 : I agree with Ayespy
Suggestion #2 :. Fixed layout would be much better. The accessibility of speed dial relies on dials always being in the same place relative to each other.
