@sanon Still can't reproduce - must be some special setting you've done?

Are you using custom CSS?
What are your theme settings? Try to play with them.

Try starting from a clean profile and figure out how you got to this point.

Even using UI zoom = 200 and using your example image as the background.
No lines showing at the bottom.

I have just realized that my UI zoom was at 90%. Changed it to 100% and the slit disappeared. Then I tried the whole spectrum.
At 90, 95, 110, 150 and 190% the slit is there. At other UI zoom levels it disappears.

Here is a screen recording: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1jagg8RgPQla5XVowxSy3jLdYDaBoQ4dK/view?usp=sharing

I have no custom CSS.

Update: I have just realized that this proplem occurs on my external monitor used as the primary screen (as "show only on 2" in Windows display settings). On the laptop's screen everything seems fine when it is used as the first and only screen.

@sanon Great - now we might be getting somewhere useful

I think I can reproduce this here on Win10 in 6.9 Stable. But not on the same zoom levels, so clearly this depends on screen size and/or other scaling factors.

Does not seem to depend on theme settings.

So please answer:

Are you using DPI Scaling set on the OS? Check Windows settings, Display.
Note that each screen can have different scaling settings.
Are you using custom CSS? I already asked, didn't get an answer and it's important to know.

@Pathduck
System>Display>Scale&Layout>Scale is at 125%.
No custom CSS (I think so. Where do I check this?)

Have you seen the update to my last message:

@sanon It looks like an issue with UI Zoom possibly in relation with monitor DPI Scaling.

Now with the information you've gathered:

Please read:

carefully and report the bug to Vivaldi bugtracker.
Please also post the bug-number (VB-#) here after reporting

Don't worry about CSS mods, if you don't know what it is

@sanon While I can't reproduce either, this sounds like something that would relate to UI zoom (rounding errors in positioning) - any of you use UI zoom, and what factor?

sanon

@Pathduck

I can do that or maybe https://youtu.be/waEC-8GFTP4?si=GQYhXyTRGDfAtcM1

Ain't Nobody Got Time For That (Original + AutoTune)

Well, you're the one with the problem, so it's best if you report it otherwise I'm not sure many others will.

I always feel it's most important for the people who have the issue and care about it to report a problem. If in a month or two the problem is still there, you can follow it up properly. For me, I don't see the issue, so I really have little incentive to follow up. I'm not going to sit on a bunch of bug reports I have little interest in seeing completed.

But if you want to help make Vivaldi better, make a bug report, include as much detail as possible. I will help you get the report confirmed. Might even take some time to figure out a workaround if it's that important
