Feature requests for 1.9 / 1.10

@ROTFL This would maybe be good also for the older request "Cross-Tab content search". Sortable list of search results + go to the Tab and exact page position of a result after click on the result.
-
@Richy_ Same. Thanks for your suggestion.
I also hope that "Search selected text" be assigned to mouse gesture.
It would be nice if there pops up a list of search engines, acting like Firefox. -
Hello Dears
Make a Powerful Search Manager , So we can choose our desired Favicon which will shown in search bar when selected ( not only when list opened ) . Make it sortable in manager so we can Move Up and Move Down cases . Remove forced " Search " term from beginning of title -
Please make Vivaldi open Downloads in independent New Tab ( just like Opera 12 ) and show Source Address and Target Address and Add a download bar over list of downloads , so we can Put URLs immediately and if You could make it feedable to take txt files for URLs to download them , It would be great , And showing traffic speed will be very useful . Thanks a lot

Add links panel (with mass selection, filter, download, open in new tab and lock functionality).
-
@jumpsq Jon, the founder, expressed a desire for a Links Panel feature over a year and a half ago - so we will be getting one, just as soon as it can be worked into the schedule.
-
Add the option to change bookmark folder icons for individual folders.
-
@gaelle I tried to find it, but it seems no one requested this yet: make Google Hangout "screen share" work.
right now Vivaldi is the best browser for power-users, hands-down. but it is missing this very important piece, as a lot of people do work meetings over hangout (corporate google accounts).

Configurable text editing shortcuts
Please make the shortcuts for copy, cut, paste, undo and redo configureable.
The defaults are pretty crappy on a programmer dvorak layout. -
Quick access to links
Spatial navigation is great, but ReKonq did something even better (which can be improved on as well).
When pressing and releasing LeftCtrl without any key in between (user should be able to change the key), all links and input elements would display a tooltip with a letter. Pressing that letter, would activate that element. Pressing LeftCtrl again would dismiss the tooltips. Links with the same target, use the same letter.
Things to make better:
The charachters used in the tooltips should be configurable. Defining a string of unique charachters like ";,.paoeu'qjk$&[{}(=yix" which will be used in left-to-right priority should make everyone happy.
If there are more elements than charachters to use, upgrade to two chars. i.e. to activate a link:
- press & realease 'Ctrl'
- press & realease 'a'
- press & realease 'e'
allow modifiers for opening in a new/background tab

@mutsuyume If they all updated, then you may have pressed F5.

Make "Tile vertically" the default option when you select two tabs and click on the Page Tiling button.
This would save a mouseclick and help us work faster. Also most (if not all) monitors today are widescreen, so this would be the best layout for most of the time.
-
@Maurik Right-click on the selected tabs, and Tile them. The default is Tile Vertically, which is the most common requirement (I use a 1200x1600 portrait monitor, but that is not so common). Most users have the tabs at the top, so moving the mouse cursor all the way to the bottom is not the most efficient method.
The Statusbar icon is for those occasions when you don't want to tile tabs vertically, so there should be no default, unless it is whatever was used the last time. The easiest option to access is Untile Tabs.
-
Add option for tab cycling with mouse wheel : Wrap or No Wrap.
It stand for stopping wrapping around tabs when it reach the top left or top right tab (as Firefox, Linux etc).It would make the behavior useable.

Ability to view/delete NON-password form autofill data.
As I mentioned in another thread, a while back:
I notice Vivaldi doesn't seem to expose anywhere the stored non-password form autofill data [...] I did some grep-ing for myself, and found it seems to be stored in the file named "Web Data". It would be nice if there was a list in Settings > Privacy so one could clear specific entries there without deleting the entire file, the way there already is a list there for passwords.
This autofill data is not manageable at
vivaldi://chrome/settings/autofill
-- that just manages saved street addresses and credit card entries.Examples of non-password form data I've seen saved this way are my library card barcode when I log into search.proquest.com, my email addresses, and on some sites, even previous comment posts I've made.

(At least when DevTools is open) have additional drop-down options from the reload button, for "Hard Reload" and "Empty Cache and Hard Reload"
As suggested by @chroncile , this dropdown from Chromium/Chrome would be reasonable to have in Vivaldi as well, on long press or secondary click of the reload button.
Original suggestion:
@chroncile said in Developer Tools not dockable to the bottom of the page:In Chrome, when you open the developer tools the reload icon gains additional options. Right clicking on the reload icon displays 3 options: Normal reload, hard reload, empty cache and hard reload. This is missing in Vivaldi. It's very useful when you are working on a webpage and need to reload the CSS.

@Maurik said in Feature requests for 1.9 / 1.10:
May I suggest an improvement on this context menu then? Replace "T" shortcut for "Reload x Tabs" with "R" letter (which seems to be free), and assign "T" as shortcut to "Tile x Tabs"
"R" is used for "Reopen closed tab"
Assigning Access keys is a constant headache. Every time a new menu item is added, they may need to be updated. Plus, Vivaldi has to work in many different languages. I assume that the Access Keys are assigned automatically, but I don't know what algorithm is used.
The most flexible solution currently has 84 upvotes:

Manual loading of active tabs option
Hi
I like to request manual load of active tabs rather automatic load. When you go activate a tab by switching to it, Vivaldi retries loading page until it loads correctly. I like an option for changing this behavior to manual. This means when you switch to a tab that is not currently loaded or is hibernated, Vivaldi will not try to load it until user manually press refresh button or press enter on address bar.
This feature will be specially useful when you like to have a lot of background tabs and some of them will be used less than others. You can simply load the ones that you need after browser startup, Because they will not open automatically when you start Vivaldi and switch to use tabs.Best Regards

Improve Suggestions when Adding a Bookmark to Speed Dial
Currently, "Add Bookmark to Speed Dial" seems to show the most recent bookmarks or Google searches first.
It might be more useful to sort by the number of times a bookmark has been visited.
