@dannyvo024 That's expected javascript behaviour I suppose. If the tab is listening for a middle click to close, it's really listening for the mouseup event of the middle mouse button, it doesn't care about mousedown.

@liebezeit Since it is an option; moved to settings.

@Gregor Currently, right-click menu, Open in background tab works. Ctrl+Click is used for making multiple selections, so that cannot do both jobs. Middle-click would be useful for those with a MMB.

Filled 3 bug reports: (VB-43503) Middle-click always closes the active tab of the stack but not the desired one (VB-43505) Middle-click fails to close tabs in stacks with popup thumbnail enabled (VB-43506) Tab Stack with thumbnails does not stay on top for further actions when a tab of the stack is closed

+1 Basically the only feature I miss from Firefox

@Pesala awesome, thanks a lot!

@XCincinnatusX said in Middle-click Scrolling for Linux Version: @Stardust I don't understand where to put in this command. I'm using Kubuntu but the command doesn't work in my terminal What Vivaldi version are you using, stable or snapshot? What is the path of Vivaldi binary file? You can find it by running these 3 separate commands in terminal: whereis vivaldi whereis vivaldi-stable whereis vivaldi-snapshot

@pesala I changed the position of tab bar and finally see your point. I originally responded to how the browser work when you use default settings (non-native look of the window + tab bar on top). It is a question where the bug is since we do not know what intention Vivaldi developers have. Since impossibility to use middle click to open a new tab when having the tab bar on top lasts for many months already, it rather seems to me like a (IMO bad**) design decision rather than bug (which would be easy to fix many months ago, especially when it is present in default settings and is pretty obvious). ** it is a sin to not utilize the empty space on the tab bar My linked post still remains relevant, since it describes current state in more detail and illustrates a simple way of how to inform a user that the whole tab bar area is "active" for various gestures or middle click. The new "+" icon would not steal place for titles of pages inside the tabs, since the icon would shrink as you fill the tab bar with tabs.
