Names for Windows
-
Do we know something new about development of this feature? Its already more than 4 months since Chromium revealed this and literally any reaction from Vivaldi. I really don't understand.

I'd also like this feature.
I use WindowManager to set windows sizes and positions. For apps that have multiple windows under the same class, the only way to have different settings for each window is to have persistent and unique window names for each of them.
For now I'm using Window Title Changer, but it'd be much better to have it natively on the app.

+1, this would be very useful. Are there any updates on this? Is it being developed?
-
+1
Also would it be possible to restore windows in the virtual desktop they where in when closed? -
Yep, 4.1 is released with accordion tabs!! But still no response on this feature.
-
+1 I'd love to see this feature! In particular, I'd like to see the window name appear in the "Move tab" context menu. Right now, windows in that menu are named based on their active tab title and it takes significant effort for me to figure out which is which.

Maybe I don't understand what you said.
A = D:\Vivaldi\vivaldi.exe
B = D:\2Vivaidi\2vivaldi.exe←RenameA : class name = Chrome_WidgetWin_1
B : class name = Chrome_WidgetWin_1
A: exe name =vivaldi .exe
B: exe name =2vivaldiexe -
Should this be tagged Windows? It's about Vivaldi for desktop in general, because "Windows OS" (in various versions since the 1980s) isn't the same as windows used on many Operating systems since the 1970s ...
@Pesala ?

Currently it's my top required feature in Vivaldi.
There's another equally important missing feature - multirow tabs, but I can achieve it using mods.
So it's really what is really missing in Vivaldi.@shifte said in Names for Windows:

- You couldn't yeasily move tabs from one window to another. Instead you have to copy and paste urls.
- You should remember to reopen all instances of the browser.
- To rename windows you still have to use a 3rd party applications.

As @barbudo2005 mentioned, Chrome has this already - hope it comes to Vivaldi too.

Since Vivaldi prides itself on its flexible tabs implementation, I was a bit shocked that this feature didn't already exist. This feature request is now almost 4 years old. Firefox has had nameable windows for as long as I can remember, Edge has them, Brave has them, and Chrome has them.
As far as I'm aware, Vivaldi is the only commonly used browser I've tried that doesn't have this feature.
For what it's worth, this for me is a show stopper, so I'm ending my trial of Vivaldi as a result. It's a shame, because many people I know are frustrated and looking for a browser to move to/settle on. I certainly wouldn't recommend Vivaldi at this point.

Damn I discovered this very useful feature on Edge which seems to be part of Chromium sourcecode for like half a year. How come it is not available in Vivaldi?
Is there a flag to enable? -

Yes this would be super helpful - really weird that this hasn't been implemented alrady
-
Soon this feature request will celebrate it's 5 year birthday. I hope by that time this feature will be implemented
-
I'll add my vote to this list.... would make my life a lot easier.

@casablanker To add your vote, you need to upvote the first post in this thread.

I can't believe this still isn't implemented. What is the Vivaldi team actually doing?? This is already implemented in Chrome
