Solved Internet connection pop up not just annoying, it steals focus!

timbeauhk

Hi,

The browser keeps reporting internet connection down-up constantly. This is particularly annoying because the pop up steals focus, so when one is typing, it interrupts and causes unintended activity such as termination of the dialogue etc.

Firstly, how can one disable this pop-up and also pls how this pop up can be altered to NOT steal focus?

Thanks

7.0.3495.6 (Stable channel) stable (64-bit)
Arch Linux.

@DoctorGTesting Hi - I think this may well be i3WM add-on related, as it has now occurred on Thunderbird standalone.

My appologies for wasting your time and presuming fault where it did not belong.

Loving Vivaldi BTW.

Which popup?
Please show a screenshot of this popup.

Foe me, there is no popup in browser which broken connection, only the tab which shows that network changed.

7.0.3495.6 (Stable channel) stable (64-bit)

Any reason why you do not use 7.0.3495.23 Stable?

@timbeauhk The only popup i see is the one from Linux's Desktop Environment which tells me the network connection was lost.
In such case notification of Linux appears on Cinnamon at top-right, on KDE bottom-right.

Vivaldi never generates a popup when network is broken/unreachable.

@DoctorGTesting This is within the browser window. I am on i3WM.

It is hard to catch as the pop up is just that...down-up but it grabs focus and does not put it back where it found it.

I will update my version and report back.

No problem. I always try to help.
There are so many different Window Managers and Desktop Environments for Linux that we can not know all of them.
