Reading List – Vivaldi Browser snapshot 2566.3

@joeduffus It contains more - it just doesn't scroll in any meaningful/expected way. You can "scroll" with Tab but that's a LOT of tabbing

Maybe that big lizard escaped and ate the server admins? :-)

@pathduck Yes, I noticed that too, that it shows a bit of the 11th entry, and displays it fully once another is removed from the list. I just think it should be mentioned in the feature description that there's a display limit.

@joeduffus Read faster?
-
@joeduffus On my 1200x1600 Portrait monitor I can see more than 15 pages on my reading list.
Suggested Improvements:
- Scrollable list
- Button to remove all
- Ability to add localhost files
- Add multiple selected tabs at once with dialog or shortcut
-
@pathduck That list should definitely scroll. I only ever have 3 to 4 articles up there so I never noticed.

@luetage Yeah, and not everyone has a scroll wheel either, so they'll need to add a scroll bar, but it might be ugly unless they minimize it somehow. But then it's not always obvious to the user that it can be scrolled at all...
- Keyboard nav with cursor keys as well.
- Del key to remove an item.
- Something to mark item as read - maybe left/right cursor (you know, like Tinder - left to delete, right to "save for later" )
All of the above can fortunately be done by Tab if "Focus All Controls" is enabled. But again, that's even more tabbing... Doing good UX is not easy

@pathduck It’s sadly an afterthought altogether. Personally I feel like the whole tabbing approach is a big mistake, just like forcing us to use arrow keys to navigate lists.

@guigirl said in Reading List – Vivaldi Browser snapshot 2566.3:
What does this mean?
[Tabs] Pinned tab should only be sticky when horizontal scrolling enabled (VB-86298)
What are the implications for Verticallers?
OK, now i understand.
Here, with the setting enabled, scrolling the bar to bring the overflow into view, leaves the [nice, neat, properly narrow] pinned tabs undisturbed & constantly visible. IMO, that is great.
However, for my preferred vertical tabs, ever since VivaldiHooks broke, we Verticallers endure the ugly indignity of stupidly large pinned tabs columnised instead of the pretty-bloody-obviously better iconised row atop all the normal tabs, AND then compounded by the annoying impracticality that scrolling down the overflowing column displaces the pinned tabs out of sight.
This is simply obtuse behaviour, & makes Verticallers clearly second-class citizens in Vivaldi. Thankfully, one has Nightly+TST/Sidebery as fallback [allegedly].

@jumpsq Thanks, something had eaten the "n" while coping link. I fixed the URL.
