[Windows 10] Vivaldi covers my taskbar in autohide mode :/
-
Hello! Is it normal that Vivaldi covers my taskbar in Win10? Generally the app is quite good but it disqualify it
It is set as [b]autohide[/b] - it's more convenient for me and I've never had any problems. I use new and old 
Opera, Firefox, Edge and Vivaldi. Only Vivaldi has such problem 
P.S. Old Opera had great RSS and mail client. I had to buy The Bat! to have such convenient (ok - TB is even better) application and CintaNotes as notes system. So now I need only fast and convenient webbrowser... It's sad. Old Opera was so great. -
Hello!

No isn't normal. That was a very old bug that affected some Win 10 prerelease builds
What vivaldi version are you using?
Generally the app is quite good but it disqualify it
Come on. That's just a tiny detail tath affects a tiny minority of the tiny minority of users who use the autohide function, or possibly just you. Not seem enough to "disqualify" a sw with an endless list of fully working features.

I'm always updated so it's 1.0.390.3…. hmm.. developers build? I was sure that I have stable or sth...
Anyway - ok - it's not disqualifying but very annoying. So I still use new O or FF.
Sometimes Edge. Why? It's included in system so it starts extremely fast.
Autohide taskbar - I have 12 inch laptop so auto-hide is very helpful for me
Old well known bug
But why it's the only browser (more - only application I have on my laptop) which has such problem?
I update V very often and my first step is to check this issue - and it still exists. Since the beginning
I'm still waiting for fix. And then I'll start testing endless list of features -
Are you using the native windows setting?
Setting that, makes vivaldi covers my taskbar on w10.
On default settings the taskbar slides above vivaldi
-
Hm.
Yes… You are right!
Now it works!
Slightly slow but I'm going to check the browser
Thanks! -
A related but different issue:
I have Vivaldi pinned to the Win10 task bar so that its icon is always present even when the application is not loaded. When activated/opened, it shows up with an second icon rather than changing the state of the permanent icon. Opera and other browsers all change their icon status rather than duplicating the task bar icon. Version 1.0.344.37 32bit.Not a huge deal but a bit annoying.

Open vivaldi, unpin it from the taskbar, pin it to the taskbar. Problem solved

Indeed. Thank you! :cheer:

I would like to switch to Vivaldi as my main browser but this bug / feature still persists and impedes my productivity.
On Windows 10, Vivaldi 4, if 'Window Appearance' -> 'Use Native Window' is disabled, Windows taskbar in auto-hide mode will be covered by Vivaldi and cannot be accessed by moving the mouse pointer to the bottom of the screen.
With 'Use Native Window' the Windows taskbar can be accessed again but at the cost of having a native Windows top window bar above Vivaldi tabs. This costs unnecessary screen real estate on a 16:9 laptop screen...
Is there any intention to fix the behavior in Non-Native Window mode?

Can confirm, tried updating Vivaldi but the issue persists. Haven't tried anything else yet but I'd rather not have to use the native window view, too.
