Extension crash fix – Vivaldi Browser snapshot 1959.3
-
@adamas There are changes to allow running flawlessly Stable alongside Snapshot on macOS. Vivaldi Snapshot is now a different app. Vivaldi.app is the stable version. Copy your profile from vivaldi.app over to vivaldi snapshot.app.

@iAN-CooG said in Extension crash fix – Vivaldi Browser snapshot 1959.3:
the placeholder icon for the iconless user.js script isn't shown in the dropdown menu, but only in the normal horizontal extension bar.
Strange, for me it's opposite
The extension with a missing icon only shows in the dropdown, but not in the regular expansion bar. I don't use the dropdown though, so for me not really an issue
-
@Pathduck I may have worded it wrongly, even though it seems correct to me, but let's retry: I meant the iconless js doesn't have the placeholder icon, hence it's indeed iconless, in the dropdown menu, as per your screenshot,
while the placeholder icon is shown only in the normal horizontal extension bar.
Hopefully clear now, it's exacly like you see it. -
@iAN-CooG Yes, it's the same thing, just wasn't sure. I also just realised I use a custom CSS to hide the icon in the horizontal one, but the dropdown uses a different CSS class
If I remove the CSS I do see the placeholder icon.
Personally I would've preferred to not see any icon at all for extensions that have no icon and hence no useful UI interaction apart from what's already available in the right-click menu (remove, show etc). I.e. we don't need any placeholders, they're ugly and redundant.

OK, I'll be annoying until it fixed. If don't like it, don't cry, no one cares.
For those who using PWAs - that feature is still broken (and already borked stable branch).
- no icon in title bar at all
- icon in system taskbar is just default V logo
- address bar is now visible by default and can not be hidden even via ctrl+f11
- window chrome does not follow theme/accent color properly
- vivaldi chrome lost page zoom controls -> no way to reset
- silent crash when trying to open dev.tools for PWA page
Most of above applies to popup windows (eg. office365/outlook.com 'open in new window' button).
No idea why this buggy s**t was published while native chromium implementation still works good. -

No idea why this buggy s**t was published while native chromium implementation still works good.Was it ever stated the feature is supposed to work flawlessly? I don't think so... It has to be explicitly enabled in vivaldi://experiments, it's an experiment and not deemed ready to be enabled by users looking for a stable browser.
Chromium is Chromium, Vivaldi is Vivaldi. Unfortunately the hooks to be able to use PWA install without errors aren't here yet.
Repeating a post about a pet bug won't make it get solved faster, as Vivaldi has its own priorities set considering multiple factors including but not limited to the top requested features by most users, and not the one a single user reposts a thousand times. It helps more if all the users interested in this to vote for the feature to get implemented in the feature requests forum, just saying.
In this blog we are meant to discuss issues specific to the snapshot of the post. Your current behavior just creates unnecessary noise commenting about something that didn't start happening today and which is unrelated to the snapshot and should be left to the bug tracker. Seriously, you aren't helping the development by repeating the post 1000 times.

When will the segment heap be supported? It's only a description of the manifest file, so support it with the following snapshot don't you?

I’m waiting for the moment when ‘posting ’bout my pet bug till it’s fixed’ will be the majority of posts in these threads…
Edit: or me trying to silence them

I'm still getting this very uninformative popup on certain sites:
-
Could it be because I have login saved? I'm running Windows 10 here.
-
I think to be fair users are being rather demanding of the developers.Only so many hours in a day and they cannot perform miracles.
Just be content with what we do have rather than mounting demand lists and expecting immediate satisfaction. -
@Gwen-Dragon I'm getting the same popup on AliExpress (where I also have saved credentials).

@rluik: Sorry, you are wrong after every of your sentences. PWA is stable feature for years, its' components are the core of modern web. Installing PWAs doesn't make sense here - there are other ways to install such apps without //experiments at all (mean not using menu item). The main issues appeared when chromium 'native' window was wrapped in vivaldi window. I just can't imagine who and why decided to replace fully-functional useful implementation with custom dull wrapper which lacks all the things I mention.
Let's be frank to each other, vivaldi community is vanishingly small. And such ill-conceived decisions are squeezing it further.
I was forced to restore stable build to 3.0 at my work laptop just to be able to support my daily workflow with outlook, calendar, ms teams, telegram and some other apps.
I KNEW how to workaround. But others will give up. "Oh, IT/Helpdesk guys told me to use chrome. I dont need a headache, I'll follow that". Think about it.And once again guys, don't do censor. If you like my post upvote it, if not, so you are free to ignore it.

@gwen-dragon: None of the posts make development faster. Especially repeating noise like "First!" (don't see any remarks there). This is just a chat.
I agree with you if there was public/open bugtracker. Bugtracker as it is now is a kind of copying to /dev/null with no feedback, no way to ~track~ etc. -

Face, meet palm.
Repeatedly. -

This "custom dull wrapper" (Vivaldi's own UI, independent of Chromium's) is what allows Vivaldi to have the plethora of features and settings we as users care so much about or otherwise wouldn't be using Vivaldi. Again, it doesn't matter if you use //experiments or trick Vivaldi into going to Chromium's PWA mode, it doesn't change the fact the feature isn't officially supported, it's an experiment. Common, I know you can understand this...

You're reposting the same stuff over and over again. That's spam. I don't consider removal of spam a form of censorship.
I can guarantee you the devs that read this blog already saw your text the first time and it isn't useful to repost.

I'd argue some do, when we stay on topic and comment about specific regressions and new bugs (never mentioned, or introduced in the build) and when one is able to reproduce a bug and reply confirming it, that's giving relevant information so the development can be faster (the bug can be reported and tracked at least).
Especially repeating noise like "First!" (don't see any remarks there).
I do agree with you on this one, the "First" posts are annoying and in other sites I promptly report this kind of behavior as spam, but here it seems to have become a sort of a running gag with developers being friendly towards them, joking, etc. The folks posting "firsts" are really friendly and known members so I really don't know if this situation can be fixed, I have been ignoring this subject for some time, perhaps I'm in the annoyed minority.

I haven't liked this change in a while. If there's a setting, please let me know.
I keep my side panel hidden. When I use a shortcut, like Downloads, for example, I can bring it up and use the shortcut again to hide the panel altogether. I don't like that thin bar on the side.
Past versions would hide it all. How do I fix this?
-
@vividal: well I tried the Hover option and the auto-collapse does what I want. In fact, I also like that it's an overlay and not part of the page. Nevermind.
{edit} but I still think the thin sidebar should not be shown for people who don't use the hover option. The button on the bottom-left is there for a reason. Hotkeys are there to bring up what you want to see, but what's the point if the behavior of toggling the sidebar doesn't do what it's meant to.

@rluik The "first" tradition started 20 years ago with Classic Opera. It has grown into a touchstone of camaraderie.
