[Linux] Middle-click paste from primary buffer onto webpage fails (VB-72227)

Thank you!

Edit (after update): Yay! It feels so good again!

AltCode

Just a heads up that the bug regarding previews now works on my version of macOS (10.14.6)

[Tabs] Previews not shown on hover (VB-72202)

Ruarí

@altcode: Strange, there was no further fix. Maybe you had some kind of failed upgrade last time or a further restart helped. In any case, glad to hear it!

Ruarí

@potmeklecbohdan: yeah that one was annoying

Finally, we can do this:

Now, if only this was default, we could point users who need to go there to the Tools menu instead of having to copy+paste in chrome://settings. And let's be honest, users still need to access the Chromium settings for stuff not covered by the Vivaldi UI.

@Pathduck Just out of interest.Does changing the chromium flags actually have any effect on the use of vivaldi.?.Sorry if it seems a lame question but i have changed a few flags but never certain if they had an effect.

[New][Configurable menus] Add support for custom links via an “Open link” command (VB-72316)

I might be dense this morning, but I can't find this, where is it? Some more clear explanation would be nice.

A Former User

@Priest72 Depends on what you change.

@iAN-CooG I found it, I have to right click and select "New Link", at that point any url/link can be added and then renamed from "New Link" to what I need.
I followed @Pathduck example to add a Chrome settings, works.

I've not yet updated, but i am so pleased to have seen this in the changelog:

[Linux] Middle-click paste from primary buffer onto webpage fails (VB-72227)

It's happy timing, coz after another day today of mmb frustration with that bug, i had told myself that tomorrow i would temporarily revert to Stable til it was fixed. Noice!

@iAN-CooG You can also search for "open link" in the commands section to add it that way.

@Ruarí Could you guys turn on Indexes in your Nginx server at
https://update.vivaldi.com/update/1.0/relnotes/ ?

So we could find release notes without having to trawl through lots of Snapshot posts? We could then link it through the Help menu for instance.

Is easy: autoindex on; for the location in the conf file (if you're wondering)

Steffie

@npro Yes indeedy, but atm i'm trapped by this infernally slow download. It's been running for about 42 years already...

C-mon already!

npro

@Steffie crap... did you try wget http://url --superboost --steal-korean-internet-speed ?

put it on suspend

@npro Don't be silly. The fastest way is to quantum entangle your hard drive with the server. Everyone knows that
