Vivaldi powers up the Start Page and adds docked Dev Tools
-
@Omen_20 Yes, probably there is some policy or network issue at work which block the road to vivaldi
-
I have a long standing bug that was briefly fixed but has returned for many builds now. When using thumb tabs, open Vivaldi and it does not generate a thumb image, it instead remains blank. Opening a new tab will generate a thumb but the original one remains blank until it goes to another page.
I have reported this a while ago

This happens with the thumb image in the tab as well, perhaps they are related

@rseiler: I have not been doing specialized detailed measurements, so I couldn't mix the detailed numbers. I just have Windows Task Manager opened always all the time to control the overall memory usage (due to VB-22444 bug appearing only on Windows 7 and a system with 4GB of RAM - that with more than 47 tabs, on closing a tab the tab process is not killed, so memory usage is increasing to the point I have to restart Vivaldi). This gives me a clear outlook how much memory is used by Vivaldi on a regular basis in my system. So I am talking about how much overall memory is used/free after Vivaldi startup and further when using it. It was some 3GB on a 32-bit version and although I was afraid to upgrade to 64-bit thinking my memory can explode, nothing like that happened and the difference in memory usage became unnoticeable. So this is my practical experience testimony.
And nope, I am not trolling you, you are correct that almost all of the tabs are asleep on startup - only 1 tab per window is active and currently selected web panel (others are also hibernated on startup). Still it is not the same situation as a session with 10 tabs, it is much different - on such cluttered profile, with 4 windows and on this pretty old PC startup takes a couple of minutes.

looking good

@wojcieche Ah, I get it, you can't click on the preview popup.
-
@D0J0P I think there's not a Twitter one and it's driving me crazy
-
Docked devtools! I can really said bye bye to google chrome now
-
Damn! Thanx for docked dev tool!
-
Nice theme. Please add to setting.

@nsane: I made thumbnails that Vivaldi themselves did. So if I were to do a Twitter thumbnail, it would be the exact one Vivaldi made, as it's Twitter's official logo in a blue background. If you want to find Vivaldi's stock SD thumbnails, go to applications/versionnumber/resources/vivaldi/resources to find all V's stock thumbs.
If you can't find it, I also uploaded them onto a separate folder just in case: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0BwcOkwtCjr51ZVNOX0U0SFhjbzA?usp=sharing

Any plans to implement fuzzy search in the quick commands bar? That would make it infinitely more useful.
-
@OrangeIsMe The setting only disables typed history from showing as suggestions when you start typing (as a section like bookmarks), but does not disable it entirely.
-
@mtaki14: What you mean by fuzzy search? How do you see it could work? If you mistype a letter, still the result should be found? I am not sure if this is practical usage of fuzzy search, would return unwanted results. Whereas you can always correct your mistyped letter.
-
@sjudenim: What is the issue number? Have you provided steps and have you tried it on a clean install? Sounds like an issue that may be hard to reproduce...
-
@wojcieche: Thanks!

Vivaldi starts lagging after 6 tabs open.
Please please please work on speed and optimization. Some suggestions are take out the lines of code that make the browser have jank!
I really like this browser so if you guys can make it lightweight itd be nice!
-
@wojcieche: Fuzzy as you can type things in any order or with missing parts and still get results. Like "Vivaldi Star Page" return this page. Currently you need to match the phrase exactly. Quite sure there's an open request in the Bug Tracker.
-
@OrangeIsMe That's strange, here it works on my stable version. Have you changed another setting? Maybe it conflicts. If you did try toggling it back to see if it works, then the team will be able to fix it.
-
I have reported it to the bug tracker but don't have the number.
It's simple to reproduce. I use thumbnail tabs on the left and use the speed dial as my start page. From a cold start, the thumb never loads (stays white) until the page is changed
