(History of) Vivaldi Feature Requests
-
could you implement an right click menu entry to open href links directly into incognito mode?
My standard settings are far stricter than the incognito mode, but sometimes I need a way to just have a site working right now and that's when it goes into incognito mode.
The necessity of copying, crtl + shift + n and crtl + v kills every workflow.
Also incredible nice, would be faster way of overwriting the user-agent for special sites e.g. souncloud where you can play the audiofiles via html5 when spoofing the right user-agent.
-
one (hopefully) easy request (yeah, I like all want a fully customisable interface and an email client) in between:
Could you enable tab minimizing?
I often open dozens of links in the background and then sort through them by closing unhelpful sites and minimizing helpful ones for a detailed look latter on. This is currently impossible with Vivaldi.

Back in Opera 12, one of my favourite things was being able to assign whatever shortcut I wanted to whatever action I could think of. One of the most convenient of these was to be able to close the current tab, and then switch to the tab to the left, or the right, by choice. For this, I set Ctrl+Q to "Close tab & Switch to previous tab" and Ctrl+W to "Close tab & Switch to next tab". You cannot imagine how helpful those two shortcuts were, especially after having opened dozens of tabs and then wanting to clear out the clutter. Therefore, I hope that you implement similar keyboard shortcut options, or perhaps just come up with keyboard shortcuts for these two actions specifically. Thank you!

- sessions

I have been following Vivaldi for quite some time now, and think that it has come quite a ways from when it was in early alpha. Even so, there are still features I would like to see implemented if possible.

- In speed dial, you should be able to move dials to predefined places on the page. For example, placing all the dials on the bottom row. Also, you should be able to set transparency of thumbnails.
- Advanced search. I believe the Yandex browser is the only browser to ever implement this. Basically, the search can auto complete and skip words in sentences which is really helpful if you don't know exactly the phrase you are looking for. You can still mark 'Exact Match' to go back to the standard search.
- When hidden, the panel should not open up to display downloads.
- When the panel is expanded to view bookmarks/downloads/etc, there should be an option for it to act as an overlay instead of inline with the site.
- Ability to close tabs left and right in the context menu.

Thank you for hearing my requests, and I look forward to the continued progress of Vivaldi.

Request: An option to never show bookmarks in the list when typing in address bar.
Additionally an option to never use bookmarks for auto-completion.
Why? I use bookmarks for archival a lot and I don't want them to show up, I mainly use history for quickly going to a previously visited site but that gets harder when tons of bookmarks are in the way.. Also lots and lots and lots of porn bookmarks, don't want them to show when typing in the address bar, no one else has access to this computer but me so it's not for that reason, I just don't want them to be in the way of actual things I'm looking for, which are never bookmarks when I'm typing in the address bar. -
Pls add History Panel to Sidebar.
Currently History is only reachable from a new empty tab. Quite often its needed to quickly look through several now closed previously viewed tabs without opening a new tab for each and going back-n-force from history to tab content to history again. The most convenient way is browsing History from Sidebar in the same open tab.

I don't know if this is a missing feature, intentional or a settings issue, but I want the ability for a page to open up a popup in a separate window.
Here's the specific page that prompts this request: http://www.cbsnews.com/live/.
If I click on "Pop-Out" in a certain competing browser. I get a small window that displays streaming video. That's the expected behavior and what I want.
In Vivaldi, I get the small video in the same tab as I'm using. I'm unable to move the video around the desktop.
I'm using Ubuntu 14.04. I haven't tried this in Windows.

I am using Vivaldi for little time and a couple of things that could be improved (IMHO) on bookmarks management are:
1 - When selected "Sort By Title" the folders and should be kept separated on the top, not mixed with the single ones.
2 - The "Bookmarks Bar" folder should be treated as a separated entity for organization purposes. Make sense to have the general bookmarks sorted in one way and the ones on bookmarks bar in another. -
I would really like to see the Left/Right position option for the Bookmarks bar. In Opera I have it set to the right and showing only thumbnails so I see more of the webpage when browsing. The 16:9/10 monitors are wide so the left/right option is IMHO more appropriate.
-
Multi-login tab
It would be nice for the users who don't have a very fast computer to run several desktops also let users upload any file from their computer when they're on a multi-login tab and also a shortcut for the feature that will be more convenient, If they don't have a lot of time
then expand the drop-down menu.That's one of the reasons I'm not mainly using your browser.
Multiple user profiles
Like chrome has people on the settings area, unlike Google Chrome; there should be a method to click the existing profile by double clicking the profile.
Users can upload a custom avatar for the user profile If they don't want to select the default avatars.

Once moreοΌ mouse scroll for scale

I second this sentiment. It's been a long time since I mentioned it, but I've been wanting this from the beginning.
-
The person who wrote that they want the download panel to no pop up in a download when the panel was hidden in the first place, I have one suggestion to what I'd like to see in place of that.
When you download something and the panel is hidden, I think the panel should pop up and indicate with it's loading bar that is on the download panel button, instead of popping up the download panel. It indicates to the user that something is downloading in a snappy, modern way I guess.
-
One of the things I liked in Opera 12 and would love to see in Vivaldi is the ability to use the keyboard for quick site nagivation.
E.g. search engines list search results on several pages. Opera would jump to the next/previous page in this list by typing Ctrl + Cursor Right (or Left). Guess it searched through the links on the webpage and followed the one called "Next" (or "Previous").
PS: thanks for developing Vivaldi!

Any chance for FIDO/U2F protocol implementation on future Vivaldi?
That would be great! -
Thank you very much for this browser and for all the great work you are doing :cheer:
I started to use opera from version 1 and I still use opera 12 on several Linux systems and win 7. I am using always the latest Vivaldi snapshots since January 2015. The only reason I did not yet suspend opera 12 is the mail client.
- So my main request is a mail client
- less important but still very nice would be: size adaption of the speed dial thumbnails - so that all thumbnails (I like to use a lot) are always visible on the screen (like in opera 12)
- import and export of passwords and speed-dial-thumbs (if possible: all settings
)
-
A feature from Opera 12 that I miss:
The ability to View Source, then edit it and reload from cache. I used to use this so much, to quick-fix broken websites, or get rid of annoying javascript ads/pay-walls. -

- Access keys on the Trash Can Drop List as in Opera 12.17 (1-0 for the first 10, then first letters automatically assigned
- Favicons on the Trash Can Drop List as in Opera 12.17
