@halleandert I run Vivaldi maximized but if I didn't and had to see them constantly I'd be an unhappy camper.

I don't understand the change. I never had any trouble to handle the window border without that frame. It had a shadow before - and it worked perfectly. With that white border it is pain in my eyes.

I initially synced without a separate sync password (my Vivaldi.net password is already randomly generated), but then I decided to follow the suggestion to have a separate password.

I cleared the sync data and ran the sync again with a new password. Now, all my data is duplicated. The Bookmarks panel has every folder twice and all the same bookmarks in each folder.

It seems that there may need to be a better mechanism for merging bookmark folders that share the same name when receiving new bookmarks from the sync.

In this update, I have an ugly blue border around selected windows

How can you get rid of this?

[g_bartsch]

@halleandert When I did run a window not in full screen I didn't have any difficulty distinguishing it from other screen elements. I hope the devs make this optional as I'm seeing unhappy people with this.

[g_bartsch]

@jenoki It's intentional. Seems some of us would rather not have this so I would suggest asking the devs to make it optional.

[Jenoki]

@g_bartsch it's absurd. i have no visual impairment. i can clearly tell where the edge of my windows are. literally no other programs on my computer have this border on them.

i agree, it should absolutely be optional, and further more it should be disabled by default.

[HalleAndert]

@g_bartsch: yeah, i absolutely agree with you.

I totally agree.

@julien_picalausa Thanks for clarification. I fully understand that and am just so happy to have sync at all.

So when a final stable release of Vivaldi comes out with Sync, would that be enough of an upgrade to be a 2.0 release?

@jenoki: Win10 64 Viv 64

For me it seems to be a function of Maximize minimize that is middle gif of upper right corner.

When just slightly smaller than full max it shows blue line if it is then fully maximized vanishes. Seems to some of the SMALLEST details bugs the hell out of touchy people...no big deal bigger fish to fry for me.

[vredesbyrd]

@g_bartsch: Agreed. I rarely run it maximized so to have a one pixel border around the window all the time is quite an eyesore and distracting. I have never had trouble distinguishing the background from the vivaldi window either. This change should be optional.

Thank you Vivaldi team! This is it! Thank you!

Thank you for the tip

[vredesbyrd]

@halleandert: I couldn't handle the border, Hopefully it will be optional in the future, but in the meantime if anyone feels the same you can add this to a custom.css. (thats the beauty of vivaldi!)

#browser.win.normal:not(.native).hasfocus.win10::after {
border: 0px solid var(--colorHighlightBg) !important;
}

That just disables the border completely. I suppose you could also make it a more subtle color if you prefer the border but your highlight is too much. There maybe a cleaner way to accomplish this, but this snippet worked for me.

[vredesbyrd]

@vredesbyrd: Actually, this probably makes more sense...been a long day.

#browser.win.normal:not(.native).hasfocus.win10::after {
border: none !important;
}
