(History of) Vivaldi Feature Requests
-
1. When I point my cursor on the very top of my screen there is like 6px space where you can't switch the tab. This is very annoying and you can't move your mouse towards the top corner of you screen and instead u have to precisely point-click on certain tab to switch it… Coming from google chrome this is extremely unconveniant.
2. When I have let's say 5 tabs open, I'm sitting on the 3rd. tab when I close it by clicking little "x" on it, it automatically redirects me to previous tab instead of the next one. I use to open a lot of tabs on some forums or ebay auctions and then go through them one by one and then I have to first close the tab I'm on, it will take me back to previous one that I already viewed and have to manually go to second one instead of a situation where after closing a tab i'd automatically go to the next one.
Ugh... Hope I've made it clear enough. :c
EDIT: Ah, and adblock support is top prior ofc.

A few issues . . .
Font in the menu is REALLY small. Don't care about the font style for now, just size.
BOOKMARKS: love the full screen manager thru speed dial screen, but when I try to type a nickname or description, keyboard response is very slow, sometimes reverses and deletes characters.
At some point, would like to see bookmark import function Opera 12x specific, rather than having to convert html.
Don't consider myself a power user, but have been using Opera since maybe v. 3, and used the power I needed. This new venture (or adventure) is amazing. Some one said it looks a lot like Opera, as if that is a bad thing. It is not!!!
-
OR boolean support in the "find in page" search box.
Anyone supports this, too?

"2. Hovering the mouse over the zoom bar, and zoom in/out by scrolling the mouse wheel."
On Mac, pinch to zoom (maybe other platforms, but Mac users would be especially happy!) -
About private tabs, maybe make them use a dark gray (or black, light gray, something) diagonal stripe overlay and a lightened version for unselected tabs
-
- Bookmarks recycle bin
- Notes recycle bin
- "Paste nad open URL"
-
Being visually impaired and a power user I was a huge Opera Presto fan. Firstly a big thank you to the Vivaldi team for going against the stream when others get lost in over simplifying their software.
First impressions with the Vivaldi browser (Windows user)
Special features that I really like:- The "page action" is a wonderful accessability feature
- The "tab colour coding"; that each webpage gets it's own colour tint makes it easier for me to see which web page I'm on without having to read the tab text.
Feature requests:
- Mouse gestures (not having to look for a button when you have low vision)
- Customisable UI window/text size for HiDPI users. Atm the borders are unnecessary thick using W7 150% dpi.
- Skinnng (loved the Z1 glass theme on Opera)
-
client side or custom javascript like in old opera
that is per page and is loaded last in page header -
On the speed dial page - When you click the add button - you should have an option to add/select from the current open tabs
-
Не хватает структуры при поиске закладок в боковой панели и в окне закладок. В Opera 12 такая возможность была.
There is no structure by search of tabs in a side bar and in a window of tabs. In Opera 12 such opportunity was.
-
How about either a good music player in the panel, or a way to see what audio is from what tabs (but not an icon in the tabs, that takes up too much space)
One could login with their accounts (soundcloud, google play, itunes, etc) and get their online music, no tabs needed, less cpu usage
Even just something to control the audio coming from tabs, play/pause, volume, etc -
About grouping tabs…
Teach Vivaldi to group the tabs automatically by website or date when user hit a special button and ungroup them as user hit this button again. -
I miss the Opera 12 customisable bookmarks bar. I love having it on the right and with Images only style that way it is even thinner than the pannel in vivaldi. Plus extensions - need adblock and private tabs

.Ditto on bookmark bar and private tabs. Could care less about adblock (tho a couple of the Chrome Store adblock apps work in Vivaldi).
-
Built-in would be much lighter on the cpu, though
-
Buttons on the main screen to switch tabs in a group, when you are in a tap group, which would be easier than clicking the tiny, thin minitabs
-
Also a "reload all" or "reload every" ________ button (replaced by url, root or whatever directory in)
Or a "reload whole group", for tab groups -
Downloaded Vivaldi a few days ago, and have been nothing but impressed so far. That said, there are a few features I have found myself missing:
Option to access history from the side panel/option to add items to the side panel.
Option to clear the list of closed tabs accessible from the trash bin icon.
Extension buttons.
Search suggestions.And that is really all that has leaped out at me so far. Thank you, Vivaldi team, for this excellent new browser.

I'm really excited for all the features Vivaldi has to offer! I tried our Vivaldi, and I'm really liking it. I used the original Opera in the past for years and sadly the 'new' Opera is kinda dumbed down. I'm planning on using Vivaldi after the official release comes out for it.
One feature which I think Vivaldi should have is the ability to save all open tabs. Pressing 'Save As' gets redundant and very time consuming for each tab that''s open. Sadly, there aren't any extensions to resolve this problem. Most of the archiving extensions in the Chrome extensions are either buggy or don't work at all . I was thinking there should be a similar mechanism like 'Bookmark All Tabs Open', but to save them all to create a local copies of the html pages. There aren't any current browsers that offer this feature. I hope that Vivaldi has this feature in the near future.
