Floating panels – Vivaldi Browser snapshot 1.16.1226.3
-
It would be nice if we could set floating panels to individual web panels.
-
I have a weird issue (possible bug?).
In Wordpress.com blogs the icon to enter Reader View that usually is on the address bar doesn't appear.
It is still possible to enter Reader View using the Page Action button in the Status Bar.
-
mouse gesture again not working at some circumstances, like when page is loading or in some internal page.

it crashes with the "Options" page of all of my extensions, except *Block Origin
Completely NOT my experience. Tested in my pc's on-SSD Manjaro KDE V-SS, & also in a Manjaro KDE VM V-SS. In both cases i can repeatedly open the Options pages for all my applicable extensions, without blanks or crashes:
Stylus, Tidy Bookmarks, Session Buddy, Disable HTML5 Autoplay, TransOver, uMatrix, Canvas Defender, Note Board, AutoScroll.What platform do you use?
EDIT 5July2018: No, Stylus Options DOES crash V-SS, i was wrong. Earlier i had only tested its Manage button, but forgot to test its Options button. Now tested, now confirmed it DOES crash V.

Ohhhhhhh, so this is what "floating panels" means! I had no idea what that was til i tried it. For me the name apocryphally conjured up images of my panels deciding all by themselves what part of my V window they felt like occupying at any given point of time, & then gently wafting about here there & everywhere depending on their whims, kinda like a leaf on a duckpond in a gentle breeze [actually, that's a lousy metaphor, coz the leaf has no say in the matter]. For now i've chosen to tick both new boxes, & i'll decide during the day/s if that "floats my boat" or not, teehee.
This new SS is the first time for a very long time that my uMatrix extension's popup is still usable with UI < 99% [eg, my 94%]. The vertical scrollbar remains missing for <99%, but critically important for usability the actual info area of the popup is now fully visible. For the previous several SS's it was getting severely truncated at its vertical edge for UI <100%, often only showing one or three columns, thus becoming unusable. I hate having to use UI = 100%, but that's how it's had to be, til this new SS. I hope it continues to behave.

For me, DPF do not work any more:
I load a pdf, viv shows the filename and that is it. Background does not change to dark grey.
I stop vivaldi and restart it, the pdf is shown. Reproducible (Win7, Viv64).
Can anybody confirm this? -
@steffie That's how it is in Opera. The Panels are in a window that can be moved and resized.

Well, it didn't. Severely truncated now once more, on a domain that earlier today had been fine. Back to 100% UI now, damnit.

Awesome!

Does anybody else have these strange "duplicated and squeezed" (like the middle three in the screenshot below) favicons in the tabs? I have them on some (e.g. google.com, vivaldi.net, heise.de) but not all sites and only after I bring the tab to the front for the first time. I think that's new since 1.16.1211.3 (I skipped the SS in between)
-
Is it just me who notices that a tab regularly crashes if I am searching on google by typing the shortcut for a google search and my search item in the address box?
First the google results are displayed, then the tab crashes. When I click on reload, then its ok again.This happens till version 1.16.1221.3 (on both machines where I use vivaldi, Windows X and 7)
-
Really great - thanks Vivaldi Team!

Is anyone else seeing some of the icons for their Extensions showing up in the right side of the Address URL Box ? I can resize the Search box, and toggle the Extensions icon display off/on. With it toggled off the few Extensions icons I see in the address bar disappear, but re-appear when I toggle back on.
Also, the Google Hangouts Extension is not working again in the SS, but this time when I try it it doesn't crash V (steps forward!)
This on Linux Mint 18.3 - 64bit.

Go to vivaldi://extensions/
select an extension "DETAILS"
Select "Extension Options"
The browser will crash. -
@dlbryant I cannot reproduce with my two extensions, but it has been reported before. The emphasis is mine:

Vivaldi crashes on my computer every time I try to access the "Options" page of some extensions.

Yes, the 2 "pink" ones did not used to be there < 1226.3. Conversely the Vanilla Cookies one to the left of those two, has been there for a very long time.

- Browser content is not overlayed completely, it moves a little when panels opens/close
- Extensions switcher is broken:
- when disabled - it's enabled
- when enabled - it's enabled but shows all/none buttons, it should only show/hide buttons disabled by the user in extension settings
-
@gregor The panels overlay/float, not the panel container. Some people like to show the panel container all the time, therefore it would be bad, if the panel container overlayed by default. This could only be introduced as an additional option.
About the extension toggle:
- If it's disabled and you hide an extension button, the toggle shows but has a different functionality – it has the hidden buttons in a dropdown. If it's enabled you can't hide buttons.
- The extension toggle in its current implementation is supposed to show/hide all enabled extension. But yeah, the current functionality is really 2 different buttons depending on your settings and hidden buttons. This needs a fix.
