@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.

@ambimom Is there any chance that pinch-zoom could have been triggered? On Mac, if you have "Zoom in or out" enabled in your Trackpad settings, that locally zooms the page content without changing the layout. It also doesn't change the Page Zoom indicator and does not get reset by the Page Zoom Reset (Command-0) action either. Vivaldi on Mac also supports "Smart zoom" (if you have it enabled in your Mouse or Trackpad settings) that's activated with a double-tap gesture. This zoom/un-zoom function can also be used to negate/cancel pinch-zoom.

@pesala Agreed. I use 5% steps to suit my vision.

@pesala said in Zoom level going back to 100%: Use Tab Zoom omg you're right, i disabled it and now it's working as intended, thanks!

Something like this https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/27593/plus-minus-buttons-on-the-zoom-slider

The missing (X) is obviously a bug. In this menu, is there not a filter somewhere? Does typing "file://" not work? I've used the other internal pages and they have this ability, but haven't tried the zoom one before.

This zoom is different and I suspect it has something that requires driver support. Because my touchpad can't do that in any browser.

@para-noid said in Enlarge Images on Hover: (...) I'm not even sure what you want. (...) On mouseover in a thumbnail image or direct URL to the image, show it in full-size in the same window (similar behavior as if it was a tooltip) preferably with some options to customize frame, glow color, etc. What I use for now is this extension: Hover Zoom + If this feature was integrated by default as another Vivaldi's out-of-the-box great feature, I think it would be a great differentiator from other browsers. I think this functionality is convenient enough to be considered as part of Vivaldi.

@simon1 do you use an extension which may interact with zoom settings? Possible clash with the (unknown) default Tab Zoom concept applied in Vivaldi.

@pesala said in Commands for Zoom to Specific Values: @ayespy Yes, but some users want both the + - and the slider. I already voted for that one. Honestly I like both. Both should be doable.

@masterleo29 I cannot imagine any other way it could be made to work. There is probably already a request for Fullscreen to affect only the current window, and show/hide Status Bar etc. The closest I could find is Full Dual Monitor Toolbar

@pesala said in Auto-commit Modified Values in Zoom Field: @dude99 I don't see much benefit in this. It just extends the hit area slightly. The controls have different purposes: the slider sets the zoom in 10% steps (smaller steps would be better, while the zoom field allows a precise value to be entered. One can use the scrollwheel in this field to adjust by 1% increments, but one has to use the keyboard to commit the value (not good). No need for a delay. Just commit the value as soon as the user clicks on the page. I don't like the slider because it's very fiddle when dragging around to get the exact zoom level i want, it take too much time to get it right. Thus, i prefer the 1% increment method from input field, but i want to do it without keyboard input because it's un-intuitive & cumbersome. User expected to see the zoom result after value changes, but we don't want vivaldi to keep redraw the entire page when scrolling rapidly, that would be too resources intensive & probably look very unpleasant to some viewers. Thus, the middle ground would be delay the redraw, or when user click on something else when value changes stop.

This bug is fixed in the latest snapshot, and the Quick Commands for Zoom UI and Webpage Zoom go a some way to resolving this issue. I still think a smaller zoom increment of 5% is better. Specs: AMD A10-6800K, 8 Gb on Win 10 64-bit build 17134.320 • Snapshot 2.1.1337.17 (64-bit)

@margarita In recent versions Quick Commands have been added. Not what you requested, but another way to quickly set the page zoom to a precise value without using the mouse. Also works for the User Interface Zoom. Adjusting that by fine increments can be useful to fit one more column of speed dial thumbnails on the start page. Examples after pressing F2 to open Quick Commands: Page Zoom 115 UI Zoom 118

@rojaviv Indeed, why not? I moved your thread to Feature Requests and rephrased it to make it universal. Some users with impaired vision might require a default zoom of more than 200%. In Opera 12.18 the range is from 20% to 1,000% which I think is adequate. Edit: The range in Vivaldi is actually from 20% to 500% but one has to use the zoom shortcuts or scrollwheel to reach those limits.

I use a dual monitor system. 1920x1080 Portrait, which works best at 100% zoom 1600x1200 Landscape, which is OK up to 150% zoom or more. It would be nice to independent settings for each monitor.
