Weekly snapshot 1.0.129.2
-
I really like the addition of the progress bar indicator for background tabs, but as "neltherion" pointed out the interface is still sluggish compared to Opera (Blink-based) and that along with proper extension support is what is currently holding me back from using Vivaldi.

Love.
Thank you for another weekly. You guys know how to keep us eager! -
yeah, tab preview beside the tab when tabs are at the side, thank you!

Once again, mods, please remove this deceptive link from this repeat spammer.

OK… Here's something I Feel should be mentioned :
The progress indicator is a really good thing... BUT something is structurally wrong when a tab starts to load. I have a slow connection at home and I can tell you what's wrong :
**1.**Open a link in the background : a new tab is opened BUT the tab is empty : no title, no progress indicator… just an empty tab with an ugly favicon...
2. after a while (depends on the Internet connectivity) which may be nearly 10 seconds or more the progress indicator starts showing and a placeholder URL is shown next to it. the tab takes a while to load, but when it does, the Title of the tab is not changed : it remains the prior placeholder URL which it was showing.
3. Unless the user explicitly clicks on the tabs, the title doesn't change from the URL.
now let's compare this to ChrOpera :
1. Open a link in the background : a new tab is opened with a Progress indicator just spinning and a "Loading" or "Untitled" title.
2. after a short while the title is changed to the Real title of the page (the one inside <title>XYZ</title> ). the difference here is that ChrOpera DOES have a URL placeholder in the initial phase of loading the tab, but as soon as the pages Header is loaded, it changes the Title to the real one…
3. there is no explicit need to click on the tab to remind ChrOpera to refresh its title…
now the problem lies somewhere between steps 1 and 2. Vivaldi doesn't even show a placeholder title in the tab UNTIL sometime later and this is really frustrating... the User thinks he has opened an empty tab and until the progress indicator is shown (which may take up to 10 seconds or even more) he believes so...
this problem shows its ugly face when you're opening multiple tabs from a Google search and then you are faced with 10 tabs with no names, no indicators and no status... until some of them start loading...
Thanks...

Just to add on that:
If you have the tabs on the left, you always have to click on the tab to see the thumb -
Here are some other stuff (I swear this is the last one !) :
1. Pinned tabs shouldn't be closeable… not by middle clicking on them and not by pressing "Ctrl + W".
2. I type something in address bar and press "Enter" => The page starts sending the query to google => I press "Ctrl + T" to open a new tab => It doesn't work until a part of the page is loaded ! sometimes I think I haven't pressed them right and keep pressing "Ctrl + T" and then suddenly a lot of speed dials open out of nowhere… as if vivaldi buffers them and after the page loads, it runs the shortcuts...
3. Press "Ctrl + T" very fast to open multiple empty tabs and see Vivaldis performance hit the floor !
4. When a page takes some time to load, the Progress Indicator stops at 50% (it seems 45%) until other parts are fetched…
5. Opening and closing the panel (by clicking on the trigger) makes the current page to flicker (due to resizing the page)
6. I have enabled the "Bookmarks favicons" but the favicons are not showing.
7. the generated thumbnails for each tab have an empty white space beneath them… this empty space not only shows for tabs but in speed dials and bookmarks thumbnails too.
8. Drag&Dropping multiple bookmarks doesn't work and although you can select multiple bookmarks but the one you have clicked for the Drag&Drop is moved to other folders and not all of them.

should not be a Vivaldi installer translated as well? It's all written in English even when the default language for update is automatically set as "Czech" (and that's correct).
-
Yes, it is really annoying (the title thing and the refresh of the screen preview)
-
+/- keys no longer zoom in or out, slider in status bar OK.
Win 8.1 X64 - 32-bit Vivaldi -
Thanks for another update.
I guess still too early for an ETA on Vivaldi Mail? -
The +/- keys seem to work for me when zooming. Using the 32-bit Linux version.
-
It would be nice to have a tab close on SHIFT-click…
-
Are there any plans for supporting multiple profiles eventually?
-
-
Hello Viladi Team, can you tell us when it will be implemented the ability to drag tabs directly in the Bookmarks Panel? And when you can avail choose whether to display the bookmarks in alphabetical order?
I'm eager for both of these as well.
-
ETA for new tabs opening in the background?
-
SOON?! it's still in state of TP, not RC for final version… guys... optimizing should NOT be the priority in this early state of Vivaldi. (but I'm not saying that no optimizing can be done in that state - only that it should not be a priority)
-
please fixed Linux only mouse bug VB-1681 + VB-2085
the Tilt scroll function not working (Logitech M560)
push the scroll wheel left/right has function previous/next page in history.works on Opera 12.×, Opera 28, Chromium and Firefox
-
looking forward to favicononly-favbar. this is much more usable than speed dial imho.
I hope you can open tabs with cmd-n while the current tab is still loading now?
