Snapshot 1.0.249.12 - Web Panels, Extension buttons UI, Progress bar info and tab performance improvements
-
Yay day?
-
BUG: Ctrl + Scrollwheel no longer zooms the web page. The slider on the status line still works as do keyboard shortcuts.
-
The fonts are terrible in this build. They are all blurred
Chrome had this a while ago so I tried the same thing
vivaldi –high-dpi-support=1 --force-device-scale-factor=1
makes it better -
YAY DAY!
-
Hold on.
Some important things are left, like link address popup on hover (would give twenty features like progress display for it)
-
Yes, this is a workaround for VB-7705 (see in changelog above). It's Ctrl+Shift+Wheel for now IINM.
-
This update is awesome! Web Panels are great. I was already using skype in the browser what a great way to use it in the web panels; twitter too :). The page info in the address is a nice touch. Keep up the great work. Looking forward to the mail client
-
Ctrl+Shift+Wheel for me works only as zoom-out. Does not matter if scroll up or down.
-
BUG: When clicking on the extension icon, the tooltip/options popup are not displayed completely. Some of the bottom and right portions are cut off. I tried it with the 'Instant Translate' and 'Magic Actions for Youtube' extensions.
-
Tabs on the side do not work anymore, I'm left with a wide block that takes up half the screen (if I'm in fullscreen) and the tabs do not have thumbnails. Definite regression. Hopefully there is a fix soon b/c now that Vivaldi has the extension UI buttons, I'm ready to use it as my primary browser (and thus, help with testing, etc.). Keep up the great work guys!
EDIT: Just saw this after reading through the article again:
"Known issues
-Links on the history page do not work
-Tabs on the side are broken: No thumbnails, too wide in default state and not resizeable" -
"for now" - remember these words… the shift is 1) not intuitive 2) not standard 3) not working properly (though, this one could be fixed...)
-
Ability to move those details of page loading from progress bar to bottom of the window like in old Opera 12 would be really awesome, and in dark theme blue color is too dark and hard to read.
Anyway this update is really huge! -
Am I crazy, or did they remove the "Remember passwords" option?
It now asks me if I want to save credentials for sites, which is something I never want to do.Other than that, great update!
-
My YouTube Web Panel works well.

There doesn't seem to be any easy way to add a panel from the current open page.

Request4: Again with Web Panels. Adding custom user-agents would be pretty nice. I know there are extensions for those. But I really want it for Web Panels only (and I noticed extensions doesn't directly affect web panels like ad blockers).
My main reason for this feature request is that there are mobile versions of websites that you can only access if you use a mobile web browser. So if I can change the web panel user-agent to a mobile one then I can access those mobile versions of some sites. Another is that you no longer have to place any mobile tags or domains on the URL when adding web panels. -
HTML5 Test Vivaldi has dropped 5 points to 521 from 526 for Chrome.
-
BUG: OK, pretty bad bug for me has started. Stock charts at https://www.tradingview.com/chart/25euojMR/ do not work. Is this a Flash issue?
-
I have something quite opposite in Speed Dial… Speed Dial items don't open in background tab anymore when Middle Clicking on them...
-
BUG: Not sure if intentional but I noticed when clicking on bookmark bar links and the HOME button opens in a new tab.
