Snapshot 1.0.201.2 Improvements to Search Engine Management, Spatial Navigation, Gray look and the foundations for customisable mouse gestures
-
Thanks for the notes. See? That helps a lot!
Well, since the new snapshot isn't coming out today, I'll take this opportunity to say now what I meant to in the next release. Opera 12 had a function that made sure link would open in the same active tab when left-clicked, even if the link would open a new tab. I believe this was called "use active tab" or something like that. I really wish for that function back, because when I left-click I want to open the URL in the tab I'm using! If I wanted to open a new tab, I would use the middle-click!
Please, make this happen. This is really annoying for me!

I would love to see the pan window shortcut like in Opera 12x (ctrl+alt + mouse)

Hello, any news?)
-
OK, it turns out there actually was another severe regression. We need to delay one more day. Sorry guys. Please bear with us.
-
sounds good to me. Thanks!

I still have the problem that changing the keyboard shortcuts affects the mouse gestures. When I redefine new window as (shift+ctrl+n) and add (ctrl+n) for new tab, the mouse gesture for new tab stops working and closes the tab instead. I reported this ealier, hope it gets sorted out with the mouse gesture customizations. Would love to use Vivaldi for everyday browsing.

Thanks for letting us know. We really appreciate your keeping us updated. Hope you can fix it.
-
Thanks for the update. Simple updates like this are really welcome.

I think it might be an update in chromium?

Has this been taken into consideration? -
Kind of wondering what is so hard to code/debug that is delaying the next snapshot day after day…
At this point, "check for updates" worked this morning but no longer works. The function just drifts off into dreamland, no feedback, never completes.

Hmm… If you look at vivaldi://voicesearch page (It's listed in vivaldi://vivaldi-urls ), you'll see that while it lists values for some of the setings, the module version information values at the bottom are reported as "undefined". Given that, it appears that the actual Google voice-listening binary module is not downloaded by Vivaldi, even though Vivaldi has this vestigial page (and as shown at the top of vivaldi://voicesearch , a few set-to-default settings values that just go unused in Vivaldi, with no voice-recognition module present to actually take them as parameters).
Compare for yourself to what you see if you go into Chrome and go to chrome://voicesearch .

Also, as for Chromium, from now on:
https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=500922#c31
In light of this issue, we have decided to remove the hotwording component entirely from Chromium. As it is not open source, it does not belong in the open source browser.
Chromium builds from r335874 (version 45) onwards will have hotwording disabled by default and will not download the module. There is no way to enable this feature at runtime. Google Chrome users will be unaffected (although, as always, will have to opt in using settings before the hotword module will activate).
If you want a version of Chromium with hotwording, you have to build it from source, with the GYP define "enable_hotwording=1" (or equivalently, the GN arg "enable_hotwording = true"). This will produce a custom build of Chromium that downloads the proprietary hotword component.
I have also added a field in the chrome://voicesearch page (in 45 onwards) to show you whether the hotword module is installable. If that says "No", then it is not possible to opt in to hotwording (either because the language is unsupported, or because it is a Chromium build).

Thanks, hadn't seen that

There is one thing I'd like to know. Why is it that whenever HTML5 isn't available and Flash is used in Youtube, the video lags for all its entirety? Here's an example if you don't know what I mean: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lPc9llALgVY
It only happens in Vivaldi.
Edit: so, apparently video URLs on Vivaldi blog are translated as the video itself… just go to the video page on Youtube for the staggering, otherwise it plays just fine here.

OK - I just noticed the update above. No build today. It's so late in the week, it hardly seems there's enough time now to test a build before next Mon. I mean, I would love a build tomorrow if that doesn't impose ANOTHER delay on the Mon. build or mean that the Mon. build only has a single bug fixed or whatever, but if waiting until Mon. for the next build would mean a more solid, and more-improved product, I'm all for it.
-
Since we're still waiting for a build, I'll just say that one feature I hope gets implemented soon is the option to have a new tab open next to the current tab rather than at the end, like Opera 12. The lack of this is really niggling me at the moment
-
+1. So far I haven't needed this but see your point and vote for it as an option.
-
I'm sure the team knows about this. Pretty high on the request list. It's the same when closing a tab. After closing a tab, the next active tab should be the one next to it rather than switching to the most recent active tab.
