Double Chromium bump – Vivaldi Browser snapshot 1916.3
-
Native notifications for Windows 10 are still broken, tested in a VM. 3.0.1874.27 works properly so I'll stick to that.

Interested if other Linux users have found this.
No such problem here !?
-
@bib_vivaldi No such change happening here.
I did a quick search through the Chromium changelog (linked from our changelog) and think (only think) it may have something to do with fa9756916c92bcd5a6c71e2c9168b8873ff7f75b or 2c2f5494a322aef5ba95e0e32a459bdef5ec1e29 (I haven’t studied them very thoroughly, I only
Ctrl-F
-ed the changelog for “scale”) -
@bib_vivaldi
I use Tumbleweed and don´t have this issue.
Do you use native window setting?Cheers, mib
-
@av1: We also need multiple tab rows.
-
@AV1 yeah and Vivaldi-team please consider all these here https://forum.vivaldi.net/category/113/feature-requests-for-desktop
-
@potmeklecbohdan: Yup, that is a possibility.
Most distros set the DPI to be 75, but I've set mine up to be correct at 109.
-
I've checked on the latest chromium unstable, and I see the same issue.
I've raised a bug report with them.
Thanks for the pointer potmeklecbohdan.

I’ve noticed a new option in settings to inherit the date and time format from operating system. This is a welcome change. I wonder what happens if I manage to tweak my system to show ISO8601, not quite sure Vivaldi will be able to pick this up.

Ugh, on Linux the entire app seems to have been zoomed by a few percent
Nope not here... still seems fine for me in Manjaro [Stable-branch] KDE.Well well, look at that... in contrast to Manjaro, & in-line with the OP, in my Arch KDE system this new Snapshot is indeed conspicuously larger. How weird!
Pleasingly however, the previous Snapshot's unfortunate tab-stack's tab-selection bug seems fixed now. Swings & roundabouts.
EDIT:
Unlike the OP's claim though, in my case with my Arch's V-SS, i can revert to more or less my prior UI scaling simply by adjusting theUser Interface Zoom
down from 100% to 90%. Historically this has frequently broken the uMatrix extension's UI, so i hope that won't be a returning hassle also here this time. -
Crashed twice now for me since yesterday evening. Not yet sure what's the reason, can probably always be related to extensions, although I was not loading a new page when it happened. Will see if I can find a way to reproduce it.
// Probably unrelated to the patch. I still wonder why chromium just crashes when your disk is running full.

@potmeklecbohdan True. I was thinking of this though:
@bib_vivaldi said in Double Chromium bump – Vivaldi Browser snapshot 1916.3:It's got nothing to do with that.
...from which it seems like the OP either did not try it, or tried it but feels it is unsuccessful for them. I was merely indicating that in my case at least, it seems to be a reasonable workaround... so far [pending anticipated uM UI breakage, sooner or later].
-
@steffie: Yes, I did not change the UI zoom setting, because there is an underlying problem. Making that change just hides it instead of getting fixed.
The zoom setting should not change from version to version.
-
@bib_vivaldi I don't disagree in principle, but i am also pragmatic. My hopefully-temporary workaround still allows me to stay with the new version, not revert to an older ergo less secure version, & yet still approximate my visually-preferred V UI [if i ignore for now that numerically i am temporarily using a different %].
-
Potential new bug? Pls can anyone confirm if they can see the page https://www.usatoday.com/ in the new Snapshot? It was fine for me in the previous version, is still fine in Stable, but now for me, on both my PCs, with the new version, the page stays blank -- in normal window, in Private Window, in Guest Window, & in my secondary profile window.
Whoops, it just appeared ... i might have a cookie problem instead, still checking.
Yep, cookie problem -- Mod, pls can you delete this invalid post?

@Steffie
Actually the bug about the UI scale vs extensions popup still exist. [VB-39040]
Several extensions fixed this updating the [popup] code but several ones marked this aswontfix
as chrome don't have a UI rescaling.
So staying at 100% UI or replacing the addon is the only workaround I know. -
@Hadden89 Thank you, that's sad/frustrating, as uMatrix is a mandatory extension for me, & as i feared, since my previous post in this thread, it is constantly now breaking again with me having had to drop my UI to 90%. Of course it is instantly good again with 100%, but then this new Snapshot UI bug makes everything unpleasantly huge. Roll on next Snapshot.
-
@Steffie On some extensions this specific VB is even worse. Cookie Auto Delete and several extensions managers for example never get a correct [popup] size. But usually, in well coded extensions like uM, the 100% UI workaround always work.

Every update lately brings back all the default search engines I delete.
