Snapshot (1.0.151.7) Updated tiling and tons of polish
-
You do realize that you're testing an alpha version, right?!
You're moaning at a very high level… -
Although I won't be using Vivaldi as my default browser for a while yet, it's already my go to browser for the increasing number of sites that don't work well in Opera 12.17.
So, I added a page for Vivaldi to my Software Reviews site. I like the Site Info popup, which is a quick route to Site Preferences.
Keep up the good work — looking forward to Email and easier and more powerful customising options.
Speed and compatibility is already excellent.

While window is maximized, Vivaldi do nothing when double-click right side of + button on tab.
Old Opera creates a new tab by this action.
I do not like this old Opera's behavior. I think that Vivaldi should unmaximize self window. -
ad 2: also, navigation keys work only after page has completely loaded. This breaks my workflow: have a newsticker on tab 1, gesture-down to open one article on tab 2 while loading slowly in the background press "1" to go back to Tab 1 (x), gesture down on Article 2, while article 2 loads slowly press "1" to go back to Tab 2 with the - now finished loading - article 1 (x). Both places marked with (x) do not work currently because the keystrokes are belayed until the pages are completely loaded.
Does work in Opera 12 and (if I remember correctly) did also work in previous snapshots of Vivaldi (not entirely sure though). -
Just wanted to say that I love this update. Almost working very well under Windows. Linux will work hopefully soon, when mouse gestures work instead of the context menu.
-
Just observed: you have to double-click right of the trashcan to unmaximize. Maybe that helps a bit.
-
I wish Vivaldi would create a new tab, though. I love that function on O12, as it allows me open a new tab without having to worry about clicking on the icon, rather having an entire row for that.
Best course of option here would be to allow customization on that part.

Hey Olli can show me how can i export my Bookmarks!
_Regards! -
If I understand correctly the nature of a Tech Preview version, it is intended to eventually contain first-whack cuts at all the promised features of the browser. That and getting existing things to work largely bug-free are the most likely #1 priority for the developers at this stage of the game. Where (or if) things like bars eventually can be moved, pixel spacing options, which shortcuts do what, and all the other similar tasks are probably going to be mostly left as work for the versions which follow after the eventual "full" TP version. This is very early in the grand scheme of things: an early TP version in a parade of TP versions, to be ultimately followed by a fully-populated TP version, to then perhaps be followed by an alpha version, a beta version, and finally the first stable release. A LOT of water has yet to flow under the bridge before we reach that point…

Your stand alone version has simply had its "Profile" folder superceded by one entitled "User Data" as part of the latest update. Your bookmarks, notes, etc are all still there in the old Profile folder - you simply need to rename it to User Data after first deleting the update-created User Data folder (with Vivaldi turned off, of course). Do that and all your prior data should reappear when you restart Vivaldi.

Request from me:
- HiDPI support!
- add option to set global zoom level
- ask everytime where to save file during downloading
- option to clear recent closed tabs list
- possibility to see all tabs in tab stack (like in O12 - right arrow on stack)
-
I don't think it's the threshold honestly. The UI seems to fundamentally have a problem. Try opening tabs or switching between tabs compared to new Opera. The smoothness is just not there

"You're up to date! 1.0.151.7 is the newest version available." How can this be?

Mouse gestures aren't working for me on OS X as well. (I guess that may be counted as Linux)
-
I feel like a smaller threshold may help for creating smaller gestures. In Opera I eventually performed gestures by only moving the mouse 1 cm in a direction. That is extremely powerful.
-
Request to start tiling for a group, by using the tile icon in the statusbar.

Perhaps the posts the devs tend to reply to are more on target with what they happen to be working on or focused upon at the moment. There are many areas yet to be coded or have their code refined, and some of them overlap other areas. Also, it's wise to keep in mind that Olde Opera had many years of refinement under its belt… layer upon layer of coding and re-coding over time that all accumulated in what you know as 12.17 and its configurability. Also, because both the Presto rendering engine and the interface were "in play" for design in Olde Opera, some things might have been a bit easier to accomplish.

I have a big stash of Opera 12 notes imported.
Whoa Whoa Whoa!
You're saying that you managed to get your Notes imported somehow!
I have tried to import things into Vivaldi every few versions and each time, I only manage to get Bookmarks. Nothing else. Even when I do them separately and choose [x]Notes (which, like for you, is a showstopper for moving away from O12) the importer mere flickers and says, "Bookmarks imported" and vanishes?
Which INI file are you choosing? I choose: C:\Users\myname\AppData\Roaming\Opera\Opera12\operaprefs.ini
and the import has never ever worked.
Tell me your secret!
(Forgot to say that I'm on Vista32)
Note to devs: You KNOW the name of the INI file which will be used; why not preload the FileOpen d/log box with that specific name instead of just a filetype?)
-
Soon.

Easter delayed last snapshot and we are preparing TP3…
There wouldn't be too much exciting new stuff anyway between a friday and a monday build.
