@pafflick Sync to owncloud/nextcloud/webdav

When it's possible to import/export user data, a synchronization to owncloud / nextcloud / other webdav-based clouds would be very low hanging fruits with an enormous benefit:

The major benefit would be that the sensitive user data will be stored not on just another third party server like Google, Microsoft, Dropbox, ... which the user hasn't any control on. With such a sync feature, the user would store his own data on a server he owns, he has influence to and he trusts!

The best would be to store the single types of data in an open format (XML / JSON) in separate files (one file for bookmarks, one file for passwords, one file for history, etc.).

That would enable other developers (i.e. owncloud addon developers, chrome extension developers, etc.) to access and re-use that data (i.e. implementing a nice user frontend, automated processing, automated dead link check, online bookmark manager, ...).

Change the width of the Panel's toggle in a maximized window to 1px or add the ability to specify a custom value.

Sorry for my bad English.

@rseiler You are right when it comes to a "major" release. But not when it comes to snapshots.
Vivaldi is still on v1..xxx. Besides I'm don't worry about version designations. I'm more concerned
about improvements.

[Pesala]

@longvoid If you're concerned about horizontal space, t is better to turn it off and use a mouse gesture or keyboard shortcut. I use 1200 x 1600 so I hide the Panel Toolbar and use GestureRight, GestureLeft to show/hide the last used panel (on the right of the window). F4 shortcut will do the same.

Multiline tabs

If you have more tabs than screen width, the tabs should then wrap to a new tab row. This is a common feature not just in browsers but also text editors like Notepad++. As a new feature that other browsers that do have multiline tabs do not have in their implementation of it is the ability to choose a fixed size for ALL of the tab items. This could be either in pixels or maybe a fixed count of tabs that fit in the current resolution, ie. if you pick "[16] tabs per row" it would be 1920/16 = 120 pixels per tab if you use a 1920 x 1200 resolution and 2560/16 = 160 pixels if you use 2560 x 1440.

Custom theme font
The ability to set a custom font for different themes would be an awesome option for making your browser look more you

[Marko Indaco]

Hello! I usually open both history and bookmarks tabs, and I notice that they have the same icon. It's not a big problem as long as they're open, of course, cause name of the tabs is readable, but become the same when locked...
Can you please make them different icons?
Here's what they look when locked

Setting maximum number of parallel downloads

[jacekn]

Setting download speed limit (global + per file)

[jacekn]

Chunked downloads to speed up download process for some servers (default chunks count + ability to change it per file)

[jacekn]

Downloads prioritizing

[jacekn]

Make javascript key handlers not interfere with browser shortcuts. Javascript handlers should be able to prevent browser default when event.preventDefault() is used. So I can have z key as back but it shouldn't make playing http://zty.pe/ broken, when entering a word with "z"

This is something Opera Presto never fixed and it's in Vivaldi way too long too

@LongLife

An old version already had it, but there is a bug with the align close button setting. With a lot of open tabs, it sometimes stretches the tabs out of the browser window if i close one from the mid until i move the mouse out of the tab bar. So it looks like the bug is not that easy to fix.

[Pesala]

@Marko-Indaco Yes, I reckon they should use the same icons as used in the Bookmarks Panel and History Panel

[paecificjr]

The ability to use a keyboard shortcut to open a saved tab session.

[ddferrari]

@Pesala Agreed! I'd like to add some simple shortcuts to the toolbar- like a printer button for a handicapped friend who can't read the small context menu print like she used to. I also want my "fit to width" button back. Heck, I want to change ALL the toolbar buttons to customize my browser. The less this thing looks like Chrome, the better.

@gaelle
"fuller1754 Option for auto-generated Speed Dial shortcuts based on usage frequency."

And/or the most recent web pages you've opened. Usually the last page I was on is the one I want to add to Speed Dial.

@paecificjr
Go to
Settings --> Keyboard --> open the section "Page" --> scroll to the entry "Open Saved Session" --> assign a shortcut
