[Bug VB-73827] Spatial navigation doesn't work properly when zoom level is not 100%
-
Spatial navigation doesn't work properly when zoom level is not 100%. I can move focus from link to link using spatial navigation keys (Shift+Arrows). But pressing Enter in some websites doesn't work properly. Examples:
Google
- Zoom page to 120%.
- Visit www.google.com.
- Use spatial navigation to highlight a link.
- Press Enter and nothing happens.
Wikipedia
- Zoom page to 120%.
- Visit https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/"Hello,_World!"_program
- Use spatial navigation to highlight References.
- Press Enter. Instead of going to References, Vivaldi will "click" the [edit] link beside History.
Environment
Vivaldi: 3.4.2066.90 (Stable channel) (64-bit)
OS: Windows 10 OS Version 2004 (Build 19041.572) - Zoom page to 120%.

@fxam Hello, I'm unable to reproduce this issue in Stable 3.4.
First make sure Vivaldi is updated. Latest version is: 3.4.2066.90Then make sure to test this in a clean profile to make sure extensions or settings are not interfering, and go through the troubleshooting steps:
https://help.vivaldi.com/article/troubleshooting-issues/Spatial Navigation in Vivaldi has its problems for sure, and I feel it's often neglected and left to rot on the vine. Maybe the developers assume most users are mousers, and they're probably right. But working Spatial Nav. was one of the main reasons I moved over to Vivaldi in the first place.

Hey thanks. Updated to 3.4.2066.90.
I found the problem now. My pages were zoomed to 120%. Setting zoom level back to 100% fixes the issues. This is obviously a bug. -
@fxam Yes, I can confirm now with zoom at 120%
Please report this bug to the team:

This has not been fixed yet.
Another problem is that spatial-navigation loses focus after opened a link. -
