Tab order broken in 3.5.2088.7 - NOT RESOLVED as of 3.6.2137.3
-
When opening multiple tabs at once (by middle-clicking a folder in Speed Dial), tabs are now focused in reverse order compared to previous versions. This problem did not exist in previous snapshot.
Vivaldi 3.5.2088.7 on Windows 10 x64
-
@ender85 Does that happen to you when right-clicking a Bookmarks folder? That's the only kind I open multiples of, but no reversal there.
-
I never tried right-clicking a bookmarks folder before, so I don't know if the behaviour changed (right-clicking and selecting any of the Open options gives me same wrong order as on Speed Dial).
-
@ender85 You're right, sorry. I had my versions mixed up.
I don't know if it's intentional or not. If we were designing Vivaldi and had to choose, would it be more intuitive for the top bookmark in the folder to be on the right or left? It's now on the left when it used to be on the right.
-
To me it's both more intuitive that the first item appears as the first (leftmost) opened tab, and that it's the first focused item (I noticed another thing - if I middle-click a folder in Speed Dial, then close and re-open Vivaldi, the old [left to right] tab order is used as long as I don't open another tab, in which case the rest of the tab order gets reversed, so IMHO, this is a bug).
-
I think this is the same bug as has already been discussed in the snapshot thread.
-
@potmeklecbohdan Might be related, but probably isn't the same – I've got New Tab Position set to "As last tab".
-
-
This is still not fixed in 3.5.2110.3.
-
Definitely reported or not?
-
definitely reported here (next page Gwen-Dragon confirmed it)
-
@derDay While it may be related somehow, they seem to be different problems. This one is about ordering (ABC vs CBA). That one is about how "After Active Tab" doesn't work.

@ender85 I've only just found this thread from the link to it in the latest Snapshot thread, in which this was my reply https://forum.vivaldi.net/post/422389
I acknowledge that you're apparently a windows user whereas i have Linux, but it seems non-intuitive i think to suspect an alleged bug like this one would be necessarily platform-dependent [?]. That qualification given, fwiw, your tab opening sequence described in your OP is not what i experience in 3.5.2115.54, was not in my 3.5.2115.31, & afaik has never manifested in any of my historic Snapshots & Stables.
If my BMs in a folder are sequenced A, B, C, for me they always open as A, B, C. That is, for me anyway, contrary to your OP mine do not open backwards.
Actually as i typed that, i got a very faint flicker of partial remembrance of an old problem [an acknowledged bug] in a quite old [i think] Snapshot wherein tabs did open backwards, but it was fixed, & hence for me, otherwise, opening seems to respect my stored sequence.

@guigirl That's not global, as I said in the same thread, so far it depended on the pre set New Tab Position. That is, if you are at tab O and have tabs ABCD in a BM folder, and you've set "After Related Tabs", every new tab is related to the previous (opened) one so you get O->A,B,C,D, while if you 've set "After Active Tab", there's only one active tab, the one you are at, O, so A is being opened first, next B is opened next to the active tab which is still the initial one (O), so you get O->D,C,B,A. Only in 3.5 due to the cleaning of code (and the known reported bug by you) it got a bit messed up, thus the confusion.

@npro said in Bug: tab order broken in 3.5.2088.7:
have tabs ABDC in a BM folder
I expect you have a typo there.
Fwiw, the only two options i use from that section, are
After Related Tabs&As Tab Stack with Related Tabs. Regardless of either one, MY result is: for stored ABC, i get an opened ABC sequence.Fwiw, just now i tested those other two options. Guess what? 100% of the time, my result is ABC. Ain't i the lucky bunny then?

Lol, that's the bug we are talking about, try the same with Vivaldi Stable to see how it was pre 3.5
-
@npro It is NOT a BUG, that's my point. I want exactly this outcome, ABC stored = ABC opened. How anyone can think that logical outcome to be a bug bewilders me.
-
@guigirl So the other way it was an unnoticed bug since the beginning from what you say, and discovered in 3.5, nope, doesn't make sense either (see part about tab O being ALWAYS the active one, next to active = next to O).
-
@npro OK, let's just agree to disagree then. Any reality in which ABC = CBA, is simply too weird a world for me.
