Three Cheers to Vivaldi 3.4: a powerful and fun version arrives
-
@Namal You seem like you are what we would call "all mouth and trousers"..all mouth and no action,bit like a pompous old general lol.
why not volunteer or something as vivaldi has a relatively small team from what i can gather so it seems there are too many silver platters to cater for.
-
@Priest72 I applied to work for them, got rejected. Idk what else I can do other than report bugs.

" Idk what else I can do other than report bugs."Yeah well, maybe you can hire someone to fix those nasty bugs.
One thing you can do is to refrain from vague, antagonistic comments like the above. Those are calculated to do nothing other than drive people away from Vivaldi - which makes it kind of hard to hire more staff. Just a thought...
-
Look at Mod's SubForum.
If you know Code, you would share your knowledge and </> Tweaks to improve it.
-
@Ayespy I would like to have your thought acrobatics which led you to the conclusion that my comment can drive people away from using vivaldi more than the annoying tab bug that hasn't been fixed to this day. (I mean the tab vanishing bug on windows btw...not even gonna mention the bugs for two and a half people who use vivaldi with Xfce)
-
@Namal No gymnastics necessary. All that is required is not being able to read your mind. Much earlier in this topic, you mentioned an XFCE bug - which, per the devs, would essentially require an entire re-write of the tab drag protocol. Not high on the list, and not likely to trigger hiring new personnel. Still, no one knows what you mean without reviewing the entire topic = your comment is vague - but condemnatory, as the bug is "nasty," and someone has not been "hired" to fix it. OK. And now you say "tab vanishing bug on Windows" which, as nearly as I can tell, is not identifiable on Jira. Do you have a bug number?
Regardless, the passive/aggressive style of the comment is a mood-killer, and appears intended to imply that Vivaldi Team are not taking care of business. Perhaps if you could identify the actual tab bug you're so focused on, someone could look and see what its status is. With the info you offer so far, I can't find it yet. Have you a bug number?
-
@namal: I use Xfce, and I wonder what bug(s). Not saying it doesn't exist, but I've not experienced anything unexpected in tab behavior.
-
@Vakkotaur It appears to be a bug trying to drag a tab onto a second monitor, which creates a file instead of a new window. May also affect Xubuntu.
-
Still no HD support for Amazon Prime video?
Also, I thought this context menu feature would allow us to edit the menu when we right click on a website.. but sadly it only seems to be for Vivaldi's menus. The irony I want to configure everything except those.
-
@DAOWAce Amazon blocks Vivaldi, not the other way around. Also, I think I saw that Amazon will not respond to communications trying to resolve this.
Yes, web page context menus will be customizable as well, but as they are not under Vivaldi's exclusive control, the coding is much more challenging - looks like the underlying rendering engine will have to be patched, to do it.
-
@ayespy: Using Xfce on Mint, the window shows up as expected. There was an extra dialog box that was revealed upon closing.
That was with V-snapshot, V-snapshot w/another profile, and V-stable open, and the tab dragged to the alternate monitor.
-
@Vakkotaur I see. As I don't have a multi-monitor setup (anywhere, much less) for my Mint machine, I can't test for it. But when it was reported, testers or developers were able to reproduce it.
-
@DAOWAce Hi, as said by @Ayespy the problem is amazon's. I did a chat report and they told me they were going to work on it. I do not know whether what they have told me is true or not, certainly the more reports there are and the more hopes there are that they will make Vivaldi compatible.
So i suggest you make a report too.
-
@Ayespy You don't need a multi-monitor setup to reproduce the bug. Just make the browser window smaller and drag a tab to a free space on your desktop.

I just did this and all it did was open the tab in a new window.

Would it be possible to add a VPN added in the future?

@thumper81201 use the search option please:
-
Any plans to be able to edit current page right click menu to add bookmark page in new new folder?
-
@laingman There are plans to allow editing of other context menus, but it may take a long time as it is a complex problem.
There are no plans that I know of to add a new folder while bookmarking a page. However it is done it would require several steps:
- Add a new folder
- Rename the new folder
- Add the bookmark
- Edit the bookmark
- The Bookmark Page dialog seems to me to be the right place to add Create a New Folder

OK. I have given up on folders and instead I just make all my bookmarks go to the main bookmarks folder then I do a search. It is to pretty close to being the same thing.
