Snapshot 1.0.201.2 Improvements to Search Engine Management, Spatial Navigation, Gray look and the foundations for customisable mouse gestures

Love to see you're adding those appearances changes as options, as opposed to what the new Opera and most browsers nowadays do. Now the biggest question: how do I change it back to the Dark Grey setting? I can't find the option to change anywhere.

Ruari? From Opera Desktop Team? What a pleasant surprise! Welcome!

Glad to see you here, Ruari! Grats with new job!
And thanks for update.

Case

So, Ruarí has gone Vivaldi. Not really that surprising

And with him gone, there's probably no familiar face from the past left at Opera for me. Feels weird, man.

But it would feel much worse if there wasn't Vivaldi, that's for sure

Welcome Ruari to the bright side fo force!

Please, highlight title of the window with system color. Gray theme looks like always lost focus…

Hope private mode is soon.

I don't want to nag but I still wanna request auto highlighting of tabstack thumbnail tooltips of the active tab, guys. Preferably a more darker color other than gray or at least the system color of the tab. I hope you have it in the works.

There are not really that many named Ruarí who deals with browser QA and much more

We will have an option for 'Light' and 'Dark' themes later on. Meanwhile, this was a change to the default setting when disabling coloring. Also, we will add the possibility to add your own colors for the entire UI so you can be in complete control.

We will add 'Light' and 'Dark' modes in future updates.

Yeah this is something we hope to get in soon.

Please be more clear about abilities of the Opera 12 which does not present in the other software: mail client, RSS client, custom styles. Just want to know: is your browser will provide these features? And, if yes, when?

Thanks for another very nice Vivaldi build.

As an old Opera user the things I miss most on the navigation side is:

Unable to use 'backspace' as a back button. AFAIK this default setup in most other browser so it's slightly annoying it doesn't work in Vivaldi.
The old Opera quick search where you could press enter to go to the link that matches your search. This feature is very useful for navigating file list and trees in cgit for example.
right click + scroll wheel to bring up a list of tabs and select one.

Spatial navigation is become very nice on Vivaldi indeed. Thanks!

Possible bug. On Facebook I can only use SpatNav using the shift+up/down keys. No left and right.

derDay

cool, Ruari arrived
ok, first time I used the auto-updater (x64) Worked as expected yeah
some urls in history are "bad" so I want to delete them, when they are shown in adress bar (while typing) -> doesn't work with the small x at the end of the line
(known) bug or feature?

olli

I´m assuming there is a not too many there?

Speaking about mouse gestures:
Maybe you want to add some text like "Trigger mouse gestures by holding $1" next to the new mouse gestures area. (or "… by holding RMB" if it's not about to be changeable)

and I expect that we will get a change to trigger mouse gestures by any key(combination) we want. BUT since it's "mouse gestures" just change RMB to "any key" (do not change the mouse movement behaviour)
hope you get my idea even if you are not willing to do that to this browser

Some tabs become unseen suddenly. The window still be able to access through V menu, but the tab still unseen. Restarting Vivaldi has effect to show these tabs again. However, most of this situation will crash Vivaldi after closing window.
Win 8.1 64bit+Vivaldi 64bit.

Ruarí

Thanks!
