Feature requests: NEW ideas (No Opera 12 features here, please !)
-
@RRR13:
Right Click + Wheel scrolls through the list of tabs in Opera and I think it should be kept for that.
Sure, many people use it for this, but I don't. So I want an option to change it for zooming
@RRR13:
But, you have the zoom bar controller for zooming without touching the keyboard. Doesn't that work for you?
Nope. I am using Right Click + Wheel (AHK script) for zooming in browsers and other applications (Word, Adobe Reader…)
-
@RRR13:
So, how does it work? Is it like Opera's web panels?
For Old Opera there's a powerful custom button that splits the current window:
First click splits it horizontally, second click splits it vertically, long click reloads the page and so removes the split.
Nice, thanks!!!
I'll try it ASAP

A p2p sync seems a bit more fraught, because unless I'm mistaken, p2p requires a predictable IP address at which one client finds another. I suppose some other addressing or haling system could be introduced whereby every one of my copies of the browser could find each other on the internet - but only so long as each end of the sync relationship were open and on line.
Yes, even a manual or semi/autopated process would be helpful, after all I dont need two perfectly synced browsers in real time.
The most important part, at leas for me, is to have MY initial configuration, with my SD, bookmarks and preferences, then a sync every day or even week could be more than enough
And then you'd have to ensure end-to-end encryption.
Of course, but this can be done in a number of ways today, shouldn't be a big problem.
People have been known to store their entire profile in a network or cloud folder - which means of course, every copy of the browser would be using the exact same data
Yes. This is a way, a bit crude, but works.
The problem is that this way works just for the PC version, to sinc with a mobile device, the config files must be filtered and/or adapted.
Even sharing the profile between linux and windows poses some problems starting from the case sensitivity of the underlying file system…

Well looks like is not that hard to have a sorta of split view in vivaldi too
It isn't perfectly like a native function, but at least it requires zero efforts or configurations
I believe that properly integrate something like that shouldn't be a big problem.
Look at the following link for the details
http://www.chromeplugins.org/plugins/google-chrome-dual-view/ -
@RRR13:
I don't really like plugins for features I use.
Indeed it's not a plugin
Did you read the link ?
-
I'd like the ability to change profiles without restarting. For example, I might use one profile (things like bookmarks, language, search engine, possibly extensions) when I'm playing and another when I'm working. If I could change the configuration with a click of a button, that would be terrific.
-
Another feature would be being able to set up a notification when a certain part of a web page changes. For example, if I'm reading the live blog of an event it would be handy to be told when the blog is updated rather than having to frequently refresh the page.

Feature set similar to the "Self Destructing Cookies" extension for Firefox:
-
Non-whitelisted cookies get deleted upon tab closure. Also includes HTML5 local storage. Should include Flash objects as well.
- Functionality to whitelist a site to keep its cookies forever, or until end of session (so you don't lose those forum cookies, obviously)
- Optionally clear the cache when not in use.
Essentially it turns every tab into a private tab… DOH this is an Opera 12 feature! Well, it does do one better by killing Local Storage and Flash objects.

NEW ideas (No Opera 12 features here, please !)
Split View? Can someone describe how it would precisely be different from Opera's 12: minimize all tabs you don't need and tile the rest? (It was even possible to modify the menu's to simply be able to select two or more tabs from the windows menu and tile them vertically or horizontally.)

1. Integrated very extended resource sniffer (cache, web, cookies, html, js - like dragonfly, cpu, memory, shared data etc. usage for debugging vivaldi and searching for cpu/mem-leaks, PER PLUGIN PER WEB_PAGE if necessary)
2. All non-browser modules (mail, irc, dragonfly, etc.) as external plugins / programs - please don't integrate into browser exe - this degrade speed of browsing, complicate debugging / updates etc.
3. "one-click" importer (exporter too) of cookies, speed dial, favorites, config, etc. to/from Opera 9-15 and from other top browsers (IE, Chrome, FF) - i mean: select one from automatically FOUND browsers in system/disk; (like Opera 12), click "import checkboxed data" then… vivaldi restart and... my new Vivaldi has 100% of auth data AND my fav. pages in speed dial etc., I may click click and get authentificated after "KEY" button. Just simple and complete switch from one to another (this) browser. btw. YES, as external plugin/program.
4. dynamic delayed fetch/display. i mean:
- config: page time = 1.0 ... I enter www.vivaldi.com
- if fetch-all-data in <1.0sec then display(); ELSE show_cached(); [show delay indicator in browser]; background fetch and silent substitute old elements to new elements; if complete remove delay indicator.
5. [PLUGIN ?] Sent video [from hand / all - settings option] to another screen / window [settings]
6. panic button (PAUSE/BREAK?) to emergency close actual TAB (with exit from fullscreen mode) - sometimes browsers hang on some specific pages / some situations
-
Sync the bookmark manager with third party apps like pocket, kippt, delicious.com, etc.

Well is way different, depending on how the split view is implemented.
You can have two panels, each of them with its own tab set, or a view where a tab can point to a standard page or to a split one, more or less the way is accomplished in the screenshot I posted above.
Think to a webmaster who have to check two version of a website (say in English and in another language), he can have a tab per site's page, where each page is split in English and translated version.
Very handy.

@RRR13:
[
I did. Are you implying that because it's not called "extension", my point is not valid?More or less, yes.
It's a script, not so different by the one posted earlier in this thread for Opera.
It resides remotely instead of locally, this fact should be more worrying than his being an extension or whatever you want to call it.
-
@RRR13:
However, all this depends on Vivaldi and how it impacts its revenue model
.
Maybe Vivaldi does want to build the servers after all.
Or maybe can have an income from the user statistics using an owned server.
It's hard to tell.
-
It would be nice, if we could enable / disable the sound (or change the volume) of a tab with its sound notification icon.
I would like to have the option to enable the X of a tab permanently (not only on a mouseover like atm).
-
Posted this in a different thread, not sure which one it goes in, both say feature requests… so please ignore if this is a duplicate, but:
Just thought it could be cool if you could set new windows to open with a tab group already open in it or possibly also save tab groups as favorites and open them like a bookmark?
For work I always end up grouping time tracking/project management sites and leaving them open if I close the window like an idiot, I then need to go to each one individually when I open a new window and then regroup, etc.
Thought maybe I'm not the only out there that could use this feature? :unsure:
Just an idea... Really digging the browser.

1. Multi Screen support for presentation
Open a web page full screen on another screen or beamer, but leave all controls (tabs, URL bar, status bar, buttons, and so on) on the main screen, so that the secondary display only shows the page.2. kiosk mode
A kiosk mode is a mode where a user cannot "escape" a pre-selected web page. That is often used for info terminals. In that kiosk mode, no downloads are possible, no custom URL opening (just clicking links and a home button), no right-click menu, no closing tabs, no new tabs, exit the browser with a password only… the only thing the user can do is navigating in that tab by clicking or entering text in a web form.Surely, both features will not hit the masses, but currently are used with MSIE only. With these two features, these 'special users' do have a choice (currently, they don't).

I would like to have the option to disable the X completely. :lol:
+1000 for disable close button!

1. Firefox-like Forget button
2. Zoom controller like this:
FirefoxMaxthon
3. Option to place Zoom controller to the address bar.
