M3. Changing the display window.
-
Hi.
Is it possible to predict the mail client on a specific browser window?
(I do not want to repeat the obvious thing here, that without the possibility of displaying in any windows, the mail client is useless when working on many windows / desktops ...)
-
@thepeche Mail is always in the first window you open.
-
I have about 8 windows open at the same time. One of them has a email. When I close those windows and open a single new window, the mail doesn't show up there ...
Any idea how to force a concept to always open in one specific window?
-
@thepeche no, sorry, and all the things I tried to open Mail from a second window (and have Vivaldi switch to the Mail window) failed...
On windows, you can hover the Vivaldi icon in the task bar (which will make all windows that are stacked in that icon show above) and select the left most window. This should be the one with mail. You can also hover over them and quickly judge wheter that window has the mail panel
-
The window where the email will appear after a browser reset with multiple windows is a total lottery ...
If the email cannot be on many windows at once. I would like to make it possible to predict a single browser window for the email.
Please...

@thepeche couldn't agree more. I think they are working on making mail available in all browser windows (... it's in beta, and in some other forum posts I have read that this is actually a challenging problem, not just some negligence).
First, I think the way via the thumbnails that open when you hover the vivaldi icon on the windows task bar and choosing the left most thumbnail seems to work reliably for me.
From within Vivaldi, I think I have found a viable workaround....
First, some steps that you have to do only once:
Step 1) find the window that has mail in it
Step 2) Open a mail tab (click on received or Unread or any other view)
Step 3) Pin the mail tab (-> so you cannot close it accidentally)Since you now have the Mail tab open, you can from now on use the quick command to switch to the mail tab. Hit F2 and type "mail" -> look for the tabs section, where one will say "mail".
See below an all in one animated gif showing the windows taskbar way, how to pin the tab, and how to get to the mail tab using F2 and quick command.

Has anything changed in the topic?
It would be enough to be able to set an e-mail in a single window, BUT IN A CONSCIOUS / SELECTED WINDOW!
-
@thepeche No change yet.
This is apparently tough to fix.

Ppafflick moved this topic from Mail on
