      By this chain, You will be able to capture and tweet quickly!

      1. Capture Area to Clipboard (or Capture page to Clipboard)
      2. Open Link in Current Tab

      Parameter:

      javascript:window.open("https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?text="+encodeURIComponent(document.title)+" "+encodeURIComponent(location.href))
      
      1. Delay (Parameter:1000)
      2. Paste

      alt text

      P.S.
      I use Vivaldi snapshot 4.1.2369.10 (arm64) on macOS BigSur 11.5.1 of M1 Macbook Air. This version has the issue. When I set Status-bar to Overlay or Hide, Capture Area feature is not working. If I set Status-bar to Show, this feature is working.

      @kyu3a Drag the camera icon to the address bar, then you can hide the status bar.

      Funny command chains were introduced in Makeuseof.com. It is "Netflix Mode". This chains will change Vivaldi to the mode watching Netflix for a hour intently.

      1. Open Link in New Tab (Command Parameter: netflix.com)
      2. Fullscreen Mode
      3. Delay (Command Parameter: 5000)
      4. Mute Other Tabs
      5. Delay (Command Parameter: 3600000) (For 1 Hour)
      6. Unmute Other Tabs
      7. Fullscreen Mode
      8. Close Tab

      general question:
      is it possible, to adress the guestwindow?
      at the moment, we can't give the URL of a tab (or a link) to guest window (links only to other profiles). with the command chain it would be possible, but I encountered, that I can't give the adress to a (new) guest window

      any hints or tricks?

      @derday Window commands of any kind are excluded from command chains, because a command chain runs as a process of the current window. I hope there will be a solution or workaround to this at some point.

      These command chains had been featured in OP previously. Moved to collect links to all command chains instead.

      Inspect UI

      Opens DevTools for the user interface.

      1. Open Link in New Tab
        Paramenter: vivaldi://experiments
      2. Delay
        Parameter: 50
      3. Developer Tools
      4. Close Tab

      Copy Page Address

      Copies current URL to the clipboard. Already available native as mouse gesture and from menu, but not as keyboard shortcut or quick command.

      1. Focus Address Field
      2. Delay
        Parameter: 100
      3. Select All
      4. Copy
      5. Delay
        Parameter: 500
      6. Focus Page
      {"category":"CATEGORY_COMMAND_CHAIN","chain":[{"key":"96a396d8-d485-4f61-926b-bdab1eddaf94","label":"Focus Address Field","name":"COMMAND_FOCUS_ADDRESSFIELD"},{"defaultValue":1000,"key":"2eb81004-6703-46db-9933-6afcfde924e4","label":"Delay","name":"COMMAND_CHAINED_SLEEP","param":100},{"key":"ce41214f-6878-42ef-b120-3deb06cfcf2e","label":"Select All","name":"COMMAND_CLIPBOARD_SELECT_ALL"},{"key":"6dae1e1a-695b-41c5-9ca9-deb1fabe9cc9","label":"Copy","name":"COMMAND_CLIPBOARD_COPY"},{"defaultValue":1000,"key":"2eb81004-6703-46db-9933-6afcfde924e4","label":"Delay","name":"COMMAND_CHAINED_SLEEP","param":500},{"key":"f71373d5-f966-4603-b7c5-a4a1722b3989","label":"Focus Page","name":"COMMAND_FOCUS_WEBVIEW"}],"key":"cl12ftdyo00i52z5wyg8ux8vy","label":"Copy Page Address","name":"COMMAND_cl12ftdyo00i52z5wyg8ux8vy"}
      

      Tab Scroll

      Scrolls to top of the current page and scrolls back to initial position when toggled again. This is an existing browser modification, but works very well as command chain when assigning a shortcut to it. I’m using Shift-PageDown.

      1. Open Link in Current Tab
        Parameter: javascript:(()=>{let o=window.pageYOffset;if(o>0){window.sessionStorage.setItem("tabOffset",o);window.scrollTo(0,0)}else{window.scrollTo(0,window.sessionStorage.getItem("tabOffset")||0)}history.replaceState({},"",location.href)})();
      {"category":"CATEGORY_COMMAND_CHAIN","chain":[{"defaultValue":"https://vivaldi.com","key":"0b01337b-4c13-4197-90c8-179c5c91cfff","label":"Open Link in Current Tab","name":"COMMAND_OPEN_LINK_CURRENT","param":"javascript:(()=>{let o=window.pageYOffset;if(o>0){window.sessionStorage.setItem(\"tabOffset\",o);window.scrollTo(0,0)}else{window.scrollTo(0,window.sessionStorage.getItem(\"tabOffset\")||0)}history.replaceState({},\"\",location.href)})();"}],"key":"cl12fv64y00i62z5wbv0ecyiy","label":"Tab Scroll","name":"COMMAND_cl12fv64y00i62z5wbv0ecyiy"}

      Close Tab Move Left

      1. Previous Tab (by Order)
      2. Delay
        Parameter: 100
      3. Select Next Tab
      4. Close Tab

      Close Tab Move Right

      1. Next Tab (by Order)
      2. Delay
        Parameter: 100
      3. Select Previous Tab
      4. Close Tab

      Control which tab gets activated after closing a tab. I personally use alt-, and alt-. to operate. Currently the only downside is you gotta disable »include active tab in initial selection« in vivaldi://settings/tabs, or both your tabs will be deleted.

      Close Stack

      1. Select Current Tab
      2. Close Tab

      There is no keyboard shortcut to close a tab stack, this simple command chain creates it. Works only if your active tab is part of the stack.

      Open Clipboard in New Tab

      1. New Tab
      2. Delay
        Parameter: 300
      3. Focus Address Field
      4. Paste and Go

      Whenever you copy a link by clicking on a dedicated webpage button, or you copied it in another application, this is the way to open the link in a new tab painlessly.

      For me personally command chains have replaced bookmarklets. There is no good reason (other than sync) for saving Javascript code as a bookmark when using Vivaldi.

      DeepL

      1. Open Link in Current Tab
        Parameter: javascript:(function%20translate()%7Bfunction%20se(d)%20%7Breturn%20d.selection%20?%20d.selection.createRange().text%20:%20d.getSelection()%20%7Ds%20=%20se(document);for%20(i=0;%20i%3Cframes.length%20&&%20!s;%20i++)s%20=%20se(frames%5Bi%5D.document);if%20(!s%20%7C%7C%20s=='')%20s%20=%20prompt('Enter%20text%20to%20translate%20with%20DeepL','');open('https://www.deepl.com/translator#'+document.documentElement.lang+'/en/'%20+%20(s%20?%20encodeURIComponent(s)%20:%20'')).focus();%7D)();

      Grabs your current selection and sends it to DeepL for translation.

      Dark (Invert)

      1. Open Link in Current Tab
        Parameter: javascript:(d=>{var css=`:root{background-color:#fefefe;filter:invert(100%)}*{background-color:inherit}img:not([src*=".svg"]),video{filter: invert(100%)}`,style,id="dark-theme-snippet",ee=d.getElementById(id);if(null!=ee){ee.parentNode.removeChild(ee)}else{style=d.createElement('style');style.type="text/css";style.id=id;if(style.styleSheet){style.styleSheet.cssText=css}else{style.appendChild(d.createTextNode(css))}(d.head||d.querySelector('head')).appendChild(style)}setTimeout(()=>{const t=window.location.href;window.history.replaceState("stateObj","",t)},300)})(document);

      Similar to the invert filter in page actions. The difference is it tries to leave images alone and it doesn’t reload the page when toggled. See https://gist.github.com/frontdevops/8aea1e0252dd826488dad63319e3ec88

      @legobuilder26 This requires the exact opposite setting, good find. I dream of selection commands being independent from the setting when called from a command chain.

      Periodic Reload Context Menu

      To add the periodic reload menu to the Page Context menu so that you don't have to move your mouse cursor to the tab bar:

      • Add a new Command Chain for each reload period that you wish to use: Name the Commands as 1 Minute, 2 Minutes, etc.
      • In Settings, Appearance, Menu Customisation, Page Context Menu, add a new folder named "Periodic Reload*
      • In the new folder, add your Command Chains for 1 Minute, 2 Minutes, etc.

      @derday Been there, done that, but it does not work. There are no timer settings when the period command is added to the page context menu.

      @pesala You need to add [Periodic Reload], this will give you the submenu. @derDay is right, it works already.
