More fixes and another minor Chromium bump – Vivaldi Browser snapshot 2088.7

@nutcracker Nah, my guess is that a meteoroid fell on their building & squashed the servers. Or they have been held up by a group of angry unicorns. Or all the friends of Feature stormed the office & demanded restitution. Maybe overnight one night all the office network cabling transformed into spaghetti? Howzabout possibly Jon issued a new corporate edict that no further development is allowed unless ALL Devs are mounted on unicycles... but there's a supply backlog from the factory?
Maybe, instead... C87 is just being very difficult...

@steffie: And how about getting a treatment?

Probably the staff is forced to finish
vivaldiaand should not post before they succeed, but @ruarí took it literally, has gotten himself a water gun and now tries to rescue the world while unicycling.While I'm a big fan of the super hero career, please give us M3 first. Then you may continue this path. Thanks.

The Vivaldi testers and Devs work hard to get out a Technical Preview soon.

-
@Gwen-Dragon yours has been the 404th post in this thread.
-
@potmeklecbohdan Actually, this is post 404
(I suspect bugged from forum migration)
-
Why has development slowed down that way we do not get important Chromium security updates for snapshots? Covid-19? Some holidays?
-
@finneko
Yes.
No.
I dunno...
...aaaaaaarrrrrrggggggggghhhhhhhhhh...

For a split second, I thought you might have skipped that dull miserable possibility…

For reasons that make very little sense other than possibly my innate masochism has got out of control again, earlier this evening i returned to Snapshot as my default, instead of Stable that had been my safe harbour for the past
couple of~3 weeks since i found & reported VB-73739: New Tab Position half-broken. To avoid the abject frustration of the broken tabs behaviour whenNew Tab Position - After Related Tabsor- After Active Tabis selected, i have set it for now toAs Tab Stack With Related Tabs.The problem with the original & ongoing behaviour of that setting is that it arises frequently [but NOT all the time] that i desire to open a link from an existing stacked-tab, in a new tab outside the stack. Afaik the official documentation, & all my experimentation to date, does not support such dynamic flexibility.
My question: Have you clever peeps managed to engineer some cunning hack, or otherwise discovered some undocumented bug/loophole whereby with some hotkey held whilst clicking the link, you can escape the stack for the subsequent new tab position?
I have also tried various combos of standing on one leg as i click, or rubbing my elbow CCW on my kneecap as i click, but to my surprise even these time-honoured techniques failed me here.
PS: Oh wow!
-
@Steffie I told you... on-topics should be forbidden.
-
@Steffie It used to be that opening as a background link would do this, but that was a bug and is now fixed.
AFAIK if you turn on the "as stacks" option, the intent is for all items opened from inside a tab (links, popups, etc) to stack.

Yes i agree, so to be clear the behaviour i described & asked about i am classifying as Dev-intended behaviour, not a bug. My issue though is that this design is too inflexible as i doubt i'm the only one who, sometimes, needs an individual new tab to situate itself outside the stack. I'd just faintly hoped someone might have discovered a loophole [i didn't remember the one you mentioned, so damn...]. Ta.

Welcome back!
Yes, we need urgently a new Snapshot (with Tabs regression fixes…). Let's hope the Devs stopped dancing and faffing about…
-
@hlehyaric Only faffing? Ta for those bolded letters... sheesh, i was tired !
-
@Steffie I'm a coward. I would like to use the other word, but I didn't dare…
-
Oh, yes... finally!
Upgrading now!
