@jane-n is it the same as the one in Chromium? btw any thoughts on https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/42224/switch-to-tab-function?

This is now implemented in Vivaldi Mobile 3.1 Blog Post

in what version of vivaldi can I expect this in?

Vivaldi	4.0.2312.36 (Stable channel) stable (64-bit)
Revision	c74896e775de3d2503647d67dde2a453e0b86ded
OS	Linux

this is a critical feature for me, I won't use vivaldi without it. This should say happiness in vivaldi

and yes I see the above that it works? in mobile, so hopefully in desktop soon.

It is still inconvenient to enable/disable dark mode, is there any opportunity to add a button in the menu?

[Catweazle]

@zhenggu , only in the menu Page actions (<>) the Invert filter

I do like this experimental feture. Is there any chance that developers of Vivaldi add a button to switch on/off dark mode for pages? (Windows desktop version). It not so comfortable to do this through restart of the browser when needs to see "white" version of only one site. And I don't wanna open some chrome for that. Please add a button!

@tyrionlannister , when you want the dark mode only on certain pages, you can achieve it with the invert filter in the Page Actions menu.
But yes, it would be desirable to have an independent button for this function and that also saves the preferences on each page.
I think that something like this is included in the future as it is quite requested.

[TyrionLannister]

@catweazle Nope, I do use dark-mode for 99% of web-pages. Invert isn't not mine thing here. Invert of already done dark-mode page isn't shows original page (sad, but true).

[Catweazle]

@tyrionlannister , for this reason, the invert filter is only useful for occasional use, as long as it does not have the function of selectively applying it automatically.
Dark mode in flags does it, it only applies the filter on pages with a light background, not on others, but this is not 100% perfect on all pages, some few become unreadable.
Despite this I have it set this way, I have activated the Dark Mode in the flags and in the few websites where it does not work well, I use the Invert Filter.
I've used some extensions for a while, like Dark Reader and Midnight Lizard, but they don't work well on certain pages either, apart from slowing down the loading of the pages.
This is why I have switched to Dark Mode Flags, which is what works best so far, even in the Chrome Store, where no extension works, because Google blocks them.

vivaldi://flags/#enable-force-dark

and select "Enabled", Restart Vivaldi.

@ukanuk That works well, so far no issues.

When can we expect this feature on the desktop version of Vivaldi?

[LonM]

@Muroj No timeline for that yet. You can discuss that on this topic: https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/57897/dark-mode-for-webpages

@ukanuk Thanks so much for that, it worked perfectly. Now instead of the blinding white pages of most websites, my eyes get to relax with the dark background. You just made the epic browser Vivaldi is, even more epic
