Minor problem - Vivaldi doesn't start maximized

escolar

Win 10 64-bit and using snapshot versions.

On cold start Vivaldi never starts maximized. Missing something simple?

Thank you.

Try the following:

Thanks.

Started maximized.

@escolar A known regression already mentioned in the Snapshot announcement thread and elsewhere.

escolar

Thanks Pesala.

Is this a long standing regression?

Have been having this issue for quite some time through many Snapshots.

Is Shift-Close the best way to overcome until it's fixed?

Is this a long standing regression?

Not that I noticed. IIRC it was fine in 1.13 final.

Holding Shift while closing makes no difference for me.

FWIW - after several cold starts Vivaldi continues to load maximized.

Makes me think there is a startup switch that can set that behavior.

@mdesatnikov It started with blue frame around. After click on Minimize/Maximaze window it goes well.

Try the following:

start Vivaldi
maximize it
hold Shift pressed and close Vivaldi
restart the PC

In my case does't work this. :(

escolar

After further testing have concluded this solution doesn't actually work.

Are there switches that can be appended at startup to force starting maximized?

escolar

I'm going to try this for awhile as a separate startup item:

"C:\Program Files\Vivaldi\Application\vivaldi.exe" --start-maximized

@escolar If it bothers you that much, revert to the last stable version. All it takes is two clicks on the maximise/restore button to fix it.

I have this problem after the update 1.14.1077.41 (Stable channel) (64 bit)

I had problems with this until the final build, which now seems to be working OK on restart. I use restart from last session.

I have the same issue now.
