@Gwen-Dragon Oh... Thanks for info!

I disagree in coloring the parameters of the query string. There are several ways to use delimiters for parameters in a URI, this would make the such URI parser more complex.

@flowerlandfilms The suggested method used by Firefox in the thread that I linked to earlier is arguably better, as no space is taken on the toolbars. One simply selects search engines after typing the search term. In Vivaldi, one can type a keyword (nickname) first, then the search string for the same result.

@saudiqbal Ctrl+L works pretty well now - as a workaround.

Agreed, url should be displayed in full by default, its more secure.

For what is it good?

@TsunamiZ Moved to Address Bar category.

@matiasmovie Moved to the Address Bar Category. Individual items in the Typed History can be deleted with Shift+Delete or by clicking the x button on the right of the item.

I noticed that after I posted my reply. I decided to leave my post as-is. Who knows it might help someone.

@steffie said in Firefox-style Zoom Buttons on the Address Bar: An alternative concept, for anyone so inclined, is to control page zoom via mouse gestures, I don't use mouse gestures. Wonder is it practical for zooming... The better concept I think is using some kind of mouse combo : side_button_1 + Scroll-wheel side_button_2 + Scroll-wheel RMB + Scroll-wheel Right now I'm using side_button_1 + Scroll-wheel for zooming (thanks to my mouse software tool) and it's great, but RMB + Scroll-wheel combo would be even better =)) https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/24463/option-for-zooming-with-rmb-scroll-wheel thus having no negative impact on Status Bar or Address Bar Well, zoom buttons are optional, e.g. in Firefox you can enable them (d&d) via customization menu. They are disabled by default. The only reason I'm using Status Bar in Vivaldi is to know my current zoom level Page tiling button is also useful, there is a Tab context menu for that.

@lonm I tried to put an ! and END of search term but doesn't work. It works if put at START of term. "!blabla" in other words By creating a search engine for it with this string https://duckduckgo.com/?q=!%s&t=vivaldi the 1st result is automatically visited. For Google it should work like this https://www.google.com/search?q=%s&btnI the added &btnI should work as a I'm Feeling Lucky result, but in my experience not all keywords always go to the 1st result, and the normal search result page is shown anyway

@terere Vote for Configurable Toolbar

As a workaround, you can either clone the tab after the URL has been replaced to recover its URL, or add if(history.replaceState){history.replaceState({},null,location.href);}; as the last command in the bookmarklet, i.e. just before })(); at the end, in order for the URL in the address bar to reappear after triggering the bookmarklet.

@derday I didn't design it, don't tell me... Although, I imagine that creating a feature that would be able to determine which parts of the URL are actually necessary (like the timestamp of a video) and which are just some garbage that can be thrown away (like the referrals) would take a tremendous amount of work, not to mention that it would probably have to use some sort of deep learning technology to work properly...

@derday More or less a duplicate of the link that I posted above. Definitely, configurable toolbars is the right way to go with this. No way could we get a consensus on where to place each button, and lots of checkboxes in Settings for stuff like this makes the application difficult to use and support. I did not even know about the option to hide Fast Forward and Rewind buttons, and some users want to hide the Home button, etc.
