Window Panel Collapse
-
When Vivaldi is restarted, all the Window Panels are always collapsed not reflecting anymore the state when Vivaldi was stopped.
Very annoying as they need to be Expanded manually every time.I think this started happening with Vivaldi 4.3.x but am not sure about it.
Certain is that this was not so a couple of releases ago.

@darwin4ever Unable to reproduce here.
I use the Snapshot as my default, so the Stable version is untouched, apart from one note that I have added.
If I close it with the notes panel or bookmark panel open, it reopens in that state. Likewise, if I collapse the panels, or hide the panel toolbar completely with F4.
Only fullscreen mode is not restored on restarting, which is probably a wise default.
-
I use the Window Panel as default, and it's always open.
If I restart Vivaldi, the Window Panel is open (or closed) reflecting the state it had when closing Vivaldi.But, inside the Window Panel, the Tabs are always collapsed NOT reflecting the state it had when closing Vivaldi.
The same happens
- when a session is loaded / opened
- when tabs are moved from one window to a new window
In all 3 cases above, this did not happen before !
Is there a new setting for this that I missed ?
-
@darwin4ever I cannot reproduce that either. I do not see any settings that might affect it. Perhaps someone who regularly uses the Window Panel can help you.
-
@darwin4ever Could you please specify which items are collapsed and shouldn't? The structure looks something like this:
Window Pinned Tabs Pinned Tab 1 Pinned Tab 2 Tab 1 Tab 2 Tab Stack 1 Stacked Tab 1 Stacked Tab 2 Tab 3 Tab 4 Tab Stack 2 Stacked Tab 3 Stacked Tab 4 Tab 5 Closed Tabs (trash)
For me, after a browser restart, the entries on the Window level are collapsed (except for closed tabs) as well as the Pinned Tabs. Collapsed/expanded tab stacks seem to remain in their previous state.
-
@pafflick Someone else reported a problem with Pinned Tabs, which I can reproduce.
The Pinned Tabs in the Window Panel are not displayed at all.
-
@pesala Must be a different issue, though I'm not seeing it here - pinned tabs are visible in the window panel in each of my 3 Vivaldi installations (Stable, Snapshot & Soprano).
What's the VB number?
-
@pafflick I don't know if the user reported the bug yet.

Hi @pafflick,
First, I don't know how you manage to have the tabs of ALL windows in the Window panel. I always have the tabs of one window.
Regarding your question : it's always minimized (collapsed) to
-
Window (followed with the number of tabs)
-
Closed tabs (followed with the number of tabs)
Before the Window level was Collapsed/Not collapsed depending on the state it had before
I'm using 4.3.2439.44 (Stable channel) (64-bit)

@darwin4ever said in Window Panel Collapse:
First, I don't know how you manage to have the tabs of ALL windows in the Window panel.
My mistake - I don't use the Window panel at all, and for some reason, I assumed that it shows all windows since I thought I had another window in there - turns out it was on the "Closed Tabs" list (it was the entry "Window with x tabs" which I mistakenly taken as my other, opened window). Usually, I have only one window of Vivaldi open at a time, so I never noticed.
I can confirm that the window level is always collapsed on each restart, so it's something that you can report as a bug. As for the Closed Tabs, I can't confirm the behavior - for me, it stays open if I leave it that way before restarting the browser.
-
I can confirm this, too. Has a bug been reported yet?
I was using the window panel as a more compact tab-bar, and now I have to manually click once on the "Window" entry to be able to do that. Not horrible, but it was better before when the top level "Window" remained open.

@darwin4ever Same, regardless of new versions.
Facebook and messenger (grouped tabs) are usually freeze, I have to restart the browser to work again. Sometimes these two tabs preview window does not disappear after move out cursor from them. I waited some new versions hoping it would be solved but now it became so annoying. (Reload of pages are also the slowest among other browsers, I'm have to use alternatively [mainly Opera and Brave].)
