Feature requests for 1.9 / 1.10
-
When starting download option 'open' should be renamed to 'save and open' - because it's saving the file to download folder and opening it, not to some temp folder where it gets deleted after viewing.
-
Add option to see picture data via right click menu (i.e. size, resolution, etc).
-
Status bar improvements (this bar at the bottom with zooming etc.).
1.Allow to move it from the bottom to below the URL bar.
2.Add button on the right of URL bar to show/hide status bar.
3.Allow to customize status bar (add/remove other options besides zooming and tiles).
4.Add option to show link's URL close to the link instead of on status bar (looking at the bottom is inconvenient). -
Give option to move button for opening new tabs (plus button) in front of tabs (now it's always behind them) or on the bar with back/forward buttons (put it in front of them).
-
Double click on tab bar should open a new tab.
-
Moving cursor over tab's thumbnail should show this particular tab in background (because thumbnails are sometimes unreliable). Currently it’s impossible to move cursor over thumbnail.
-
Add option in context menu to open tab in different browser (i.e. Edge). Because Vivaldi still has some serious problems with some websites - that way people can still use Vivaldi as everyday browser and switch to other browser only when they encounter problematic website.
-
Some improvements to tab closing. When the bar is full of tabs after closing a tab other tabs keep their size as long as you keep cursor over them - but all tabs on the right move to fill the space. Tabs should hold their position (with blank spaces for closed tabs). It would make selecting and closing tabs much easier.
-
Add option to search for two different phrases on one page (higlighted with two different colors).
-
Add option in settings to disable autofill in text boxes on pages.
-
Add button to enable/disable Java/Flash. It should be placed next to URL bar and change color when website is using Java/Flash and you've got them disabled.
-
Wrong naming of key shortcuts - 'Next tab (recent)' and 'Previous tab (recet)' are switched (I've got 'Cycle in tab order' selected).
-
Autocompletion should suggest most common url from history (with main pages taking priority over subpages).
-
@hondac Don't think this colouring is necessary, but RegEx search could be nice.
-
Different keyboard shortcuts to go through tabs with or without Tab Cycler (I like to use Tab Cycler for right click+scroll but I don't use it for "normal" tab switching (pressing 2 or Ctrl+Tab)).
Edit: What I even more love about this in O12 is that switching tabs actually ignores tabs that are within a stack (tab group) when this is not expanded. I'd wish for such functionality here as well.

Current tab-zoom options are rather strict. I would like to have tab zoom, but I would still like to have a different default zoom level for a certain website. In the current options, this is impossible. You either use tab zoom, which means that once you close the tab (google.com) when you open another google it gets reset to 100% instead of a default of say 150%. Or you do NOT use tab zoom, in which case google.com is always stuck at 150% in all tabs. What I'm looking for is that if I change from 100%, that should be the default. Other tabs of google.com should open at 150% until I change the setting. The default value should remain that of the first opened tab. Only changing that value will change the default for when the browser starts again.

I typed a long post in FaceBook messenger (via their website). I locked my computer. When I was back, all text was gone. Not only is this a rather serious bug, but I realized that I'm missing a feature that was awesome in Opera: many times the browser would be able to restore the contents of a text field even after accidentally closing the tab, navigating away or browser crash. I would love for this feature to make a comeback.
-
@dLeon No, it is not. I want this behaviour (be able to both show the cycler and not show it) when switching tabs: https://webmshare.com/g8o6y
In O12: Cycle to next page (which I think is more comfortable with mouse usage) vs. Switch to next page (which I prefer for keyboard usage)
-
Easier way to access sessions
Show list of saved sessions in separate sessions menu under Vivaldi button
Show list of saved sessions in quick commands when typing 'session'
Show named sessions in address bar dropdown similar to bookmarksRight click on tab bar > 'save open tabs as session'
'save selected tabs as session' if multiple tabs selectededit: Remember last used state of 'open session in new window' or have default value as a setting

Customizing Default Download Location by File Extension
Instead of having a single default download location, I'd like to be able to customize it by file extension. So the images could go straight to my Pictures folder, videos to Video, music to Music, etc etc. This should include The ability to arbitrarily add locations for different file extensions, preferably as something where you just add another line to add a new extension and location.
