@MasterLeo29 It’s an interesting idea, but it doesn’t work for me for some reason. I copy/pasted the code and ran it on a page with video. Tried to switch tabs with both shortcut and clicking and pip didn’t trigger.
-
@luetage Seems odd. Did you interact with the page after pasting the code ? (the "drawback" I mentioned).
Also, was the video running ? Was on a particular website, or in any ? (I tested on Youtube and Twitch) -
@MasterLeo29 Tested on youtube. When it reacts to switching tabs it doesn’t switch tabs, fullscreens the video and shows pip as empty overlay. When closing pip manually tab switches afterwards. This is completely broken in my case. Might depend on platform. Maybe it would work better listening for
tabs.onActivated, checking whether it’s the video tab and then either showing pip or showing original video depending on the outcome. -
@luetage That's ... very weird. Next time I work on some mod/improv, I'll try improving it. Sorry that it doesnt work for your setup
-
@MasterLeo29 Might take a look at it at some point. Automatic pip is a good idea.
-
@luetage Thanks. The idea actually came from a friend of mine. He as a few "unique" ideas that I try to implement every so often with mods.

@MasterLeo29 I got this to work on a newer version, don’t know what went wrong before. The required click is absolutely annoying and makes this useless. But this is not your fault of course and I doubt there is something we can do about it. The pip api is user gesture restricted and simulating a user event isn’t possible. I tried different versions as page action and also wrote some of my own, but in the end they all have the same problem.
One interesting api would be
autopictureinpicture, which is a boolean attribute that can be set on a video. Theoretically it should go into pip when tab or app is changed and exit pip when the tab is activated again. This would make the visibility-change event listener obsolete. I didn’t get it to work though… -
@luetage Well, Im glad it ended up working for you. As for the required click, I ended up "not noticing" it during my daily use because I usually switch tabs by right click + mouse wheel, which works just fine for this (the "right click" also acts as interacting with the page, so all ended well).
About that 'autopictureinpicture', after a quick search it seems like that currently is only implemented on safari browsers (mac/iOS), so its normal that you couldnt get it to work.
Maybe soon, when I pick up some other mod, I end up finding a solution for this.
-
@MasterLeo29 Yeah, when you change tabs like that, it doesn’t matter. A context click seems to be a user gesture. But if you don’t, the click matters, because you might as well have clicked the pip button and foregone the whole automation. Another problem is that focus seems to be on the pip window when it’s being triggered. It’s hard to get this to work in an effortless manner.
-
@luetage Well ... I did try, I guess. But yeah, to be "generally usable" it needs improvements
-
@MasterLeo29 Hopefully the
autoPictureInPictureapi will be available at some point. I expect it not to require a user gesture, which would solve this cleanly. -

I created this chain of command:
https://forum.vivaldi.net/topic/80132/command-chain-toggle-read-view-hide-tabbar
-
@luetage after v team "fixed" the tab selection bug, now the Select Next Tab command no longer loop at the end of the last tab. So it broke this CC & can't close the first tab in tabbar, it close the last tab instead when Close tab move left...
-
@dude99 This has always been the case, at least in the version of the chain I use. I close tab and move right for first, move left for last tab.
-
New chain of command "Deezer Quiz"
Deezle is a music quiz from Deezer, I enjoy it a lot. Every day there is a different musician to find.
-
@luetage Is there a "Open Selected Text in New Background Tab" command chain as well?
-
@neltherion No, I’m afraid it’s not possible
-
Clone pinned tab and unpin it
- clone tab
- pin/unpin tab
nothin great but practical

@ukanuk said in Command Chain Recipes:
New (empty) Stacked Tab
@ukanuk how to do the same while opening a link from an existing page??
I want smth like the context option of "Open in new tab stack" from vivaldi android browser in vivaldi desktop. It opens the long pressed link in a new tab placed in current/new stack with current tab.
