TP3 is here!

Excellent, thanks guys!

Indeed. Opium is way better.

At the same time, we also wanted to give Opera a more native look and feel. And hence, taking also into account that native toolkits have evolved over the last 10 years (especially on Mac), we decided to build the whole UI with native code: we stripped away Chromium’s UI layer, and built it piece by piece from scratch — a big undertaking, and what you see today is just the beginning.

ok, cool. nice to hear that. still wondering, how I managed to get it messed up on my system. I had Vivaldi running only for testing and only used few open tabs and suddenly after an update it looked this way.
If you are planning to make the control size configurable it is actually a great idea! -
It also works here, but only sometimes. I didn't find out when it happens, but it seems to depend on the loading time of the page.
-
Does someone know how to define an additional shortcut in the settings? I want to make in page search work with both "Ctrl+F" and "."
-
Thats not possible yet, we are looking into it
-
ok, cool!
-
Well, true.
But after all this is just another level of abstraction on top of the already existing ones and we all know that each of those levels make the things slower.
Vivaldi's UI is slower, this is a fact. It will improve over time, but likely it will never be on par with other UIs built using the native tools.
That said, the average machines will be more powerful in the next few years, so the snappiness gap will be less noticeable in the future.
So a choice that looks debatable today can prove to be the right one in the long term

I see that Vivaldi is pointing silently to 82.221.99.163 in Iceland. What is the use of it ?
-
I have my fingers crossed for an ultra-secure password manager built-in so I can ditch both Chrome and Lastpass / PasswordBox / KeePass type extensions.
Keep up the great work guys.
-
GREAT! Now, I'm gonna play the annoying guy and ask: when is MSE & H.264 support coming?
Also, I would love to set the UI design for a more round shape (I don't like how everything looks flat), but I'd like to see performance improvements before that. -
Great!!
And I want: Outomatic tab stacking and only tabs must colored. No the other bars. My eyes my eyes!!! ^^

My current Opera folders are located at :
C:\Program Files (x86)\Opera\29.0.1795.47
C:\Users%USER%\AppData\Roaming\Opera Software\Opera Stable
C:\Users%USER%\AppData\Local\Opera Software\Opera Stable\CacheVivaldi can't seem to find them too…

Maybe you can use the bug to reset your browser's size. I'm not 100% solid on how to reproduce it out of my head, but AFAIR you need to press your mouse button down and start dragging a Speed Dial entry. While doing so, press Ctrl+0 to reset zoom. Then release the SD entry.
If that doesn't work, you just need to wait for the fix.
-
How are themes coming along? This can't come soon enough.
Will extensions ever be able to bleed through to places where they very much belong (in many cases), like the toolbar?
-
Nice work. Good for further development.
-
Just came back from Opium's blog and I've got to give it to you : They're feeling the blows and are finally trying to get a grip !
The dude writing the blog post back there seems to be one of the guys behind Opera's lack of features based on "User Data" and "Research" !
