Snapshot 1.2.470.11 - Editable Gestures
-
Great update.
-'Over a Link' sub gestures Can they be disabled?( bug reported by me)
-It would be great to be able to modify Rocker Gestures, I personally want to assign tab cycler in recently used order to it. Both cycling methods are great but right now I can use only one.
-I have assigned fast forward function to mouse gesture and I have to wait a lot longer than in O12 before it becomes active after opening a page. -
Win7 64 bit, 32 Viv
Can anyone confirm… I seem to still be getting double entries of same URL in bookmarks when I bookmark a page. Did I just not see and delete it from last build?
No just created new and got two. -
Yes, I have the same issue.
ArchLinux 64bit (KDE Plasma 5 desktop)
-
I found that speed dial thumbnails disappeared after relaunching Vivaldi.

- Press F5

Quit nagging about the email client. It will be released when it's stable enough. Nobody wants to lose important emails; not even when testing beta software.

Congrats guys on a new and wonderful snapshot!
Vivaldi team has really inherited the no nonsense approach of the old Opera team, up to version 11.0 I believe. Every feature introduced has sense for at least some of us, and if it does not, it doesn't stand in the way.
Many important and large developers have forgot that the freedom of choice is one of the most important factors in making a successful software project and adopted the highly restricting method of "adapt or die". I am thrilled that Vivaldi is going upstream of today's coding and design customs.
The gradient on extensions buttons is gone Thank You for that as perhaps it was my request few weeks back to remove it that prompted the team to do it.
I have one more design spit and polish suggestion: Put in few icons (styled black/gray like icons in bookmarks or in address bar) in "V" drop-down and few spacers just to visually de-clutter it. -

This.
There are fashions in everything. I find the current fashions in software/interface design appalling. It is all about restrictions, limitations, "simplification" and telling the user what they ought to do as defined by some team of "UX designers". Everything looks dumbed down and acts dumbed down. Random example: I wasted an hour yesterday trying to connect a Win 10 laptop to an ad hoc network, only to discover that Microsoft took that functionality out. The horrid interface doesn't tell you why. It's appallingly sparse; the first thing one thinks of doing is right clicking something. You can't. They took that out too. The "simplicity" just leaves you baffled as to how to move forward with an issue.
I don't even really blame MS. They are trying to follow the herd because their hegemony has slipped away (I imagine old MicroSerfs sitting in a bar reminiscing about the glory days of the Windows 95 launch, when the whole world was watching and caring). So they've hired people who are making Windows like all the other horrid "ecosystems" out there. UX, "cloud", "apps" (Gawd I hate that word), "mobile first", dumb it down, no options, bloody awful.
At least Vivaldi thinks we should be treated like adults with computers instead of children with "toys". Thank you Vivaldi.

Strange one for you….[Win7, 64bit, Vivaldi 64bit)
The Mouse Gesture edit buttons are showing as black squares for me, and behaviour of their click actions is inconsistent. Sometimes they don't appear to function at all, sometimes they do.
I'd also second the call to have mouse gestures overwrite conflicting gestures, or at least let you know which assignment they conflict with.
But overall I'm DELIGHTED to have this feature back. It's the one I've been waiting for since TP1!

Woow, very nice guys Customize gesture mapping !!! perfect
-
You mean the Vivaldi makers, right?
-
Close tabs to left makes no sense on the first tab.
Close tabs to right makes no sense on the last tab.Close Previous Tabs, Close Next Tabs might be better than left/right to suit Left/Right tab bar position.
-
Thanks man! Though I noticed that the setting was on by default when I updated. After I woke up this morning and opened Vivaldi the setting was turned-off. Weird.
-
MOUSE GESTURES!!! Also, very elegantly designed interface for adding new ones. Excellent!
One comment - please let us add gestures like (open tab | open link in tab) and similar 'joint' commands separately. For instance, I don't want to open links that way.
-
Confirmed added as bug VB-17223.
-
Yes, "go to top of page" I miss too.
-
Editable gestures! Hooray!
Now just add custom CSS for UI in profile directory (the way Firefox has userChrome.css) and I won't need to run my customization script after every update. -
Mate, it's on the way. I have seen it. It's not done yet, but basic functionality is working at least for IMAP. Also, at the moment it is unfinished, untested, and unoptimized and would be very slow with a large number of e-mails, if they didn't randomly disappear from corruption. Just yesterday one of the testers found a bug where something was dividing by zero when you typed in a port on an e-mail client, and moreover, the client currently has problems working with gmail.
Other testers tell me that they expect it will probably appear in the snapshots by year's end. It is relatively high on the priority list, but having the browser's basic functionality (tabs, gestures, text selection, the ability to paste & go, etc.) must necessarily come first. Most of the options being added in the browser settings come from fixing bugs. If the dev thinks of two equally good ways to deal with a bug, this leads to another option in the settings.

Thanks for posting the repro steps. I've been experiencing it for months but couldn't find any easy way to reproduce.

Jon, It's always a pleasure to see your comments here. Thanks
